an appropriate FMIC for my application?

core dimensions :=

Width = 400mm

Height = 225mm

Depth = 60mm

end tanks are well shaped for flow even though its an apexi nock off with outlets aimed at the stock piping route. Im going the stock piping route becuase i dont want the return piping replaceing my guards and panels that a 1m long IC would force me to do.

My application is aimed at the 1 bar 14psi mark toward the end of the power end of my buildup. So will this be useful for around summer in sydney weather durring the daily driver duties and the track days with less extreme ambient temporatures ?

Im looking for the best response (yes stock piping route i get it) while maintaining a decent intake temp to the charge air so im trying to match appropriately. :)

should be fine mate at around that boost level.

nice medium between the stock one and the common 600x300x75 styles.

will provide better cooling than standard while still providing nice response being of a "reasonable" size.

some guys use r34 gtt sidemount intercoolers on r32/33 for a mild upgrade so this should go one step better.

anyhow, its gotta be better than the stock item!! you'll fing the real difference wont be giving you anymore outright power (only ability to do so) but it will make it more enjoying to drive in the summer months as it will suffer less from heat soak.

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.

      Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.

      Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
