Installing FMIC to a R32 - Info plz?

[int21h]

Hi Guys,

I'm doing a bit of research in putting a FMIC on my R32.

I've had a look at where to put it, theres a huge space, BUT, you've got the Air con pipes and the bonet catch brace.

How did you guys go about all this? Did you just mount the cooler lower, or did you redirect the pipes and some how the bonnet catch thingy.

Or are there kits available?

I did a search, but no-one has really talked about what they did to make the cooler fit into a 32.

chop the F@#K out of it!

hehe thanks.

But what do you do with that bar thats in the way, for the bonnet catch

Depends what you want.

If you want a cooler that fits behind the standard bar but cools really well and will handle high HP go for a Bar and Plate.

Make sure it is a new good quality Bar and plate. The new ones do flow very well, and good for Aussy heat.

Bar and Plate .. = Smaller FMIC's.

Tube and Fin = Big arsed FMIC's.

the top bracket on my cooler is bolted where the horn was on the bonnet catch. i got a veilsine front bar it went straight on without cutting any thing.

Well, i don't want a huge one. But as big as i can go without having to do much rearranging.

So what i want to know, is what do you do to make them fit.

Thanks Juiced32. So did the bar stay where it is and just move the horn?

[int21h]

But get a decent FMIC if i decide to upgrade.

[Guest Juiced32]

Sydney.. Do you think there is a benifit on a street car in Australian weather to go a Bar and Plate over the Tube and Fin?

Say for ~ 350-400hp?
