  1. and what highway do you plan doing this on ? I cant think of a quicker way to end up behind bars or kill yourself / someone else....why not consider using at something like powercruise ?

    As for the original question..id plan on getting a half decent turbo instead of those 2..maybe a T04Z..much better matched to the RB26, Ive seen some for pretty decent prices 2nd hand.

  2. how often do you get 40 degree days in the blue mountains, maybe a intercooler spray kit might help if those days are few.

    Have heard the standard gtr cooler is good till about 400rwkw from memory.

    haha last week it was about 40...and its not like i just limit my driving to the blue mountains ;-) Yeah there seems to be these different opinions of what sort of power levels the stock intercoolers

    are good for.

    I guess with all the rain lately i hardly need a intercooler spray kit..get plenty of spray from the car driving in front of me :-)

    Cheers

  3. You could possibly make more power with a retune, but without it you should be fine. You've just increased your heatsoak capacity so on a hot day it should be less likely to ping due to lower intake temps.

    I wouldn't bother unless you want to up the boost now that you've installed it.

    Yeah not so fussed about upping the boost anymore right now, not to sure how the longevity will be on the standard motor if I started doing that lol..

    thanks mate

  4. i dont reckon it would be needed

    the std GTR core is pretty good kit and an aftermarket one, if anything will only add a little bit better resistant to heat soak if anything

    imho retune not needed and your wasting your money on retune

    are you trying to gain power by changing the core?

    surely better things to spend your $ on to make the car go faster than a different intercooler core

    Thanks for the replies guys...

    Yeah thats what ive heard..but i guess its pretty much the last thing on the car that hasnt been upgraded ? running 2530's, bigger injectors, fuel pump, clutch etc..motor in the car is also only 20,000 km old (been upgraded with fresh R33 GTR parts and some other goodies)

    And plus it worries me on those 40c days having the 20yr old standard cooler there ? and I've heard the standed core runs out of its 'efficiency' range past 300kw ?

    cheers

    and chelsea's bad run continues :-)....a 3-3 draw with Villa at Stamford bridge the other morning !

    Good to see Liverpool get a win after missing out on 2 matches due to the bad weather...good time for Joe Cole to score his first PL goal :-)
