Thanks to all who have brought my product. below are steps to install the bop plate.

tools needed:
flat head screw driver
rachet
extension
10mm socket
1/2 wrench
12mm gear rachet wrench ( very important you buy this if you dont have it )
ultra grey rtv gasket maker
zip tie
CoryXavier BOP kit ( hardware included )

step 1
remove engine cover

step 2
using 10mm socket , extension and rachet remove bolt holding wire harnes

step 3
using flat head screw driver press clip holding the harness to the metal bracket. be carefully not to break this while doing this. if so it doesnt effect the way the harness is positioned. just a fyi

step 4
remove the 12mm o.e.m bolts holding the V.I.A.S using a 12mm rachet gear wrench. bolt number 3 will be the hardest to remove. please use gloves and have patience for this bolt

step 5
remove V.I.A.S from manifold

step 6
remove air line from V.I.A.S and zip tie to air line still connected to the manifold.


step 7
clean oil from V.I.A.S area to ensure rtv gasket maker has a clean surface for sealing

step 8
apply rtv gasket maker to mainfold area of where the V.I.A.S was removed. best way is to apply by finger to ensure a leveled amount

step 9
install Bop plate

step 10
using the bolts that came with the kit install the bop plate.

step 11
hand tighten bolts and wipe off any excess gasket maker that may have been pressed out

Dude...that's a sh*tload of RTV. You have enough there to make four or five gaskets.

Also, for the sake of cleanliness, why not use an OEM VIAS gasket from Nissan? I doubt it costs very much, couldn't be much more than the RTV.

 

The late A34 model (as seen in this tutorial) also uses a plastic valve. All the more reason to chop/hack it.

5.5 gens use a metal (Al) valve, as we all know as well as a metal reusable gasket.

 

The 5.5 VIAS valve is a different design, too. Here's one off an engine that is actually clean...

 

That's an optimistically high percentage.

Honestly, I think $20 is a fair price for a VIAS-delete BOP. Although flange-head, SS bolts would be more appropriate. That, and a little restraint on the RTV.

 

You & your bolts, cripes.


For the 5.5 gen it's 3 bolts, that's it, nothing more or less..

 

Again the hardware lacks any type of lockwasher or plain washers @ that!!!!! You erased me previously why?????? (Moderator)

 

IMO Id rather re-use the stock 12mm and put a washer on than use 1/2" head bolts. Im kinda picky but i hate when i look in and engine bay and see a mix of different bolts. If the car uses metric sized bolts, than only metric sized bolts should be used lol.

 

I didn't erase anything, haven't done any editing in this thread aside from my own posts.

 

PM me if there's a problem here otherwise keep it ON TOPIC.
thanks,
Dan

 

Looks pretty good is it made of plastic orsome kind of metal...

Looks pretty good is it made of plastic or some kind of metal...

 

its made out of 1/4 aluminum. and painted in 500 degree engine enamel black


the stock bolts will not work when installing the bop plate thats why i include the shorter bolts and the bolts thread used are metric its the head thats standard 1/2"

if washers are a concern its 33 cents for them. its doesnt impact the bop plate at any rate

 

This would get more attention from 5th and 6th genners alike if it were moved to the Group Deals/Sponsors forum.

 

Why is this a sticky?

 

Sorry, maybe I didn't submit the b!tch!!! I apologize Nmex... My bad!

 

Too bad the De-K's aren't this simple...

 

Looks good man! I'll DEF be grabbing one of these tomorrow.
