but the other thing is..... if I did do a head gasket... I'll be short on money to repair it.

If you crash the car you will short on money too....jsut dont do a head gasket then :D

meh ask shane............ all good things come to those who wait

lol LMFAO....i am speechless, i can do ney but laugh.

so his is a drift car?

another thing is.. mine is circuit.. so it's lap after lap after lap after lap.... you get the idea.

fark I just need a good mechanic to advise me on this one... someone who does what i do to the car, and does it week after week after week.

yeah but when sliding the engine is reving at a constant pace...with less air flow then when doing circuit......dont get me wrong pwr is good....but dont know if you need it.....alot a sliders use these radiators....the heat in a sliding car tends to be higher, cause of the lack of air flow.

ahh i got ya..

might i also ask why u put the VCT S14 engine in the 180sx..? just curious

if u want quality scourer around ns.com or yahoo japan for a ARC or HKS tripple core or something.. but im sure a cooling pro 40mm radiator would be fine

you know the saying.. the best track car is a stock track car... so I wanted to keep it stock and felt the s14 engine was better in it's stock form with the vct.. It was also cheaper to buy a sr20de silvia and put a decent engine in it, than to buy a decent sr20det silvia.

crashed that, kept the engine and found teh 180 shell.

but now all logic went out the window when i put a gt28rs (ps i did this work myself shaney... you proud?!?!!?)... and realised what i'd gotten myself into lol

myeah dont spent that much if you dont have too

my brother has one of these 399 all alloy rads and his stays at 80C when he is sliding, and i believe it still fine, and he is in NT atm. depends what you think is over kill really.

think i might get one soonish too.. my rad coolant looks like pineapple juice atm :lol: and ill prob pull the engine out for fun during the holidays.. :D

so give the cooling pro ones a go, and if it doesn't work, I can just sell it and get a pwr one

nah, I've gotta get one too.. along with a whole list of other sh1t

I think my rad had air in it or something, I blew on a warm up lap... but seeing how easily my one came apart, my goodness.

whateva homo, 4 doors get all the chicks and in your case guys

bahaha.. good call ben

thats true.. ur up at 7000rpm and the air isnt flowing thru the front..

ahh.. ur on quite the budget arnt u.. what is the budget circuit car running suspension wise..?

and how is the 28RS for ya.. im planning on using either 2871R or GT3071R but soo many mixed biased sheepish opinions on ns.com im waiting for the GT3071R dyno results to come out

i find the VCT SR20 a lil quicker standard than the red top black top.. gosh they are noisey rattly things.. and pretty gay to do injectors on. who did ur wiring for the harness?

so give the cooling pro ones a go, and if it doesn't work, I can just sell it and get a pwr one

yeah i would, thats what i am going to go. yeah someone will take the cooler off you.

you guys are so much more helpful than nsw

they've got no clue.

yeah cause we actually do work on our cars....not just take them to people....

oh my bad, i was still in engrish mode.

DONT BUY A R33 then lol

oh yeah.. that's a little bit bigger than mine! I'd be interested to know how that goes!!!

you should try jumping on to www.nissansportscarclub.org or silviansw.com ... they seem to be a more knowledgable crowd than the ns.comers!! All NSW based though.

I only drove the 28rs for 5mins.. but oh my goodness... even at 10psi my car was hauling ass!!! But I've never driven a car (other than buntas) that's had a turbo upgrade before so my view may be a little mis-guided.

my goodness yeah they're noisey.. for the first few months, I thought something was wrong.. but turns out it was just rattles until oil pressure got up there lol.

Grey Imports did my wiring.. and whole conversion.... and almost everything... twice... apart from the turbo (lol)

yeah i would, thats what i am going to go. yeah someone will take the cooler off you.

yeah cause we actually do work on our cars....not just take them to people....

i used to be one of those people until i did my turbo myself, and realised how easy it was! I took it to the mechanci to do the piping and realised i should have done it myself (coz it was so dodgy!)

oinnnnnoooo

how are ya chicko?

:sorcerer: i'm f**king excellent :D:P

u rang?

Oh hello darling :P

*burp*

f*k, everyone's in here today

morning fag

You coming to dinner tonight?

yeah and you wont regret it either, everytime i open my bonnet i say to myself "that is one sexy radiator there"

You're one sexy radiator :D

you know the saying.. the best track car is a stock track car...

I miss your 33 going around the track!

you guys are so much more helpful than nsw

they've got no clue.

Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat.
