Hi guys

I am installing a GTR intercooler

Now I am going to make a new piping

I know that the piping can be made at the local exhaust shop but where can I get the silicon ( rubber hose) that connect the joins of the piping and intercooler in Melbourne

And one more thing is the diameter of the GTR i/c is larger that the std piping of gts-t, how to overcome this problem?

BTW this is for r-33

Thank you guys

purple pig sell the silicone I think, thats where I got mine....

You can get reducers in exhaust material if that swhat you are using, or, you can get the reducers in the silicone material too.

Maybe check the shop on www.autospeed.com.au , they sell the silicone too for a reasonable price....it is pretty expensive though.

Cheers,

Russ

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)

      I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
