I like the way you used the 00tb and stuff. I don't think your hose for the IACV will be big enough. I think you will need a 1in nipple to make it work propery.

Very clean adapter plates. Do you have an RPM switch wired up too?

So would you need that for a 00vi swap. Im getting my tax returns soon, I just want to by the upper and drill the lower 4thgen im so it will fit. I dont want to get the fuel rails and injectors. I would also need a rpm switch. and what else? the egr extender pipe?

Disable EGR altogether and leave the sensors so you don't get a CEL. That's how I (and Nismo3112) did it. Doing it this way, you will need adapters for TB and IACV.

Sorry for the nooB questions but How do you disable the EGR? and how would I make the adapters. Would I be using the 4th gen tb?

The egr is easily disabled by just pulling the vacuum hose off. You don't have to remove the pipe coming from the exhaust manifold.

To make the adapter plates:
1) buy some aluminum and start machining
or
2) buy an adapter plate from someone who makes them. There are a few people on the org who do that.

You could use the 4th gen TB or the Pathfinder TB, in which case you would have to make an adapter plate. You could use a 5th gen TB, which would bolt right up to the IM, but I believe you will have to remove the IACV from the bottom of the TB because of interference with the egr. I'm not exactly sure about that, though.

Ok, i get it now.
How bout I connect the EGR hose to the Intake, custom dremel a hole?!?
I need a Adpater plate for the 4th gen tb, if I do Ill just drill out the holes for it in the plastic IM and make it fit like that

thnx Stephen Max for the help

do you get the best performance by using the 5th gen lower im and fuel rail and injectors? or do you still get the same by just drilling the 4th gen lower im? I'm VERY interested in doing this. What all would i need to get? I found an upper IM at a junkyard, besides the adapter plate(s), what else is necessary?

Same performance either way, I would assume. DEK injectors are larger so if you need more fuel delivery due to other mods, this would be the way to go. Any way you go, you will need an RPM switch.

A rubber hose WILL NOT stand up to the heat from the EGR.

Where are most people bringing in the EGR? Mine is a 99 and different, but curious where people who are not disabling EGR are putting it back in.

These are the ones you are talking about I take it. Where does it go back into the 00VI then, on the bottom?

ivac takes air from that black resonator box, then it goes in through this elbow on the top of manifold http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...777_7_full.jpg

here you can see the elbow i mentiond - it's on the bottom of res. box, that provides air for ivac 'in' - the big plastic one -http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/1/web/361000-361999/361777_4_full.jpg

Instead of putting the elbow on the intake manifold, why didn't you just put the elbow at the bottom of the throttle body where the IACV sat before?

so for the install of the VI, what else is needed? I found a VI for 125 at a junkyard, and want to know what else i'd need to take with me besides the VI. I know ill need an rpm switch, but where would these adapter plates come from? I would hate to not everything needed for when i go to pick up the VI

You make the plates or buy them from people can make them like Stephan Max or MaxS

How are you going to do the swap? Just the upper IM? If you plan to use the lower IM from the DEK, make sure you get the fuel rail and injectors as well.

Just the upper. Is that all i will need then is the manifold itself? And ill contact the names mentioned on the adapter plates. Did you make them yourself or did you get them from someone else.
