Default GSR Skunk2 Manifold Question

I haven't come around to install this on my car yet. I talked to my friend earlier about it and he said he was still wondering what he should do with an extra coolant passage at the back of the manifold. He said he just connected a tube to it and plugged it. It works fine but he's worried the plug might come off. Is that you guys are doing too?

Also, i bought the upper and lower pcv tubes listed in the instruction manuals. However, do i need to buy a pcv valve tube to connect to the manifold? Or can i reuse hoses off the stock manifold?

Just trying to prep as much as possible to get a clean skunk2 intake manifold installation.

Thanks. That site is pretty in depth on how to install it. But isn't installation slightly different between '94-'95 GSRs and '96-'01 GSRs?

One step in those instructions shows this pic:



The 94-95 GS-R intake manifold doesn't have this sensor. Does Skunk2 make 2 different manifolds for the different year vehicles, or is something else done for this sensor when installing the Skunk2 manifold?

Yes, 94-95 GSR's have this. I put mine on a while back and had no problems. Everything hooked up from one manifold to the other. as far as newer tegs....you will need to T one of the coolant lines.

ohhh wait sorry, I was thinking of the wrong thing... I know the newer teg manifolds have an extra piece on top of the manifold that the older ones don't have... is that what you were talking about, having to T into a coolant line?
