I managed to get my intercooler behind my autech front bar with no chopping of the bumper or the bumper reinforcement. Off the top of my head, the measurements were 600*300*68 (maybe 60 or 70).

I had to move the horn bracket, and bend the aircon reciever bracket to make a little more room in there. I don't have a fan mounted on my aircon heatexchanger though, I don't know if it will fit now the intercooler is there.

I'll try get some photos.

Dang, I wish my car wernt away for the winter :mad: ...My FMIC with the Stock front bar looks really good. Hella lot better than these ones. I did take the AC out though that helps alot for fitting a big IC under that stocker. I'll try to find some old pics maybe.

Ye air con made it a bit hard. Gonna pull it all out anyway cuz I dont really use it.

Has anyone pulled it out? How hard is it to de-gas etc?

yep of course i have!

dunno about gas, supposed to get someone to do it coz its really bad for atmosphere or something but i have known people to simply unscrew and let it out...

just unbolt the ac unit thing on side of engine.

unscrew and remove air con condensor (need to remove radiator)

and then just cable tie the loose lines afterwards.

very simple once you get started :laugh:

I reckon wait another couple of weeks before you decide on removing that glorious aircon lol... If you do though just watch the pressure as it can piss all over you if your not careful!

haha nah i used it about twice last year. makes funky noises and leaks coolant out the motor so i think its time it went bye bye.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
