Hey Adzmax

The custom coolers at Race Radiators in Dande are they cut down form truck coolers? And is about $700 for fitting and piping?

I got a 32 gts-t with a gtr front so u think that cooler would fit in there nicely?

Is 640x270 a good size?

Sorry if i sound dumb im tryin to find out which will be best for my car.

:uh-huh:

Well I'm no pro by any means but I went into thier workshop and saw them making them. They are not cut down truck coolers they are all brand new bits. I told him the type of car I had and he gave me two options. A 60mm for $650ish and an 80mm for $750ish. Thats a mandrel bend pipe at the bottom so it feeds back the same way it came in. They are good for heaps of preasure too. The fitting was about $300ish from memory but it still works out cheaper than buying a kit and it's all fully installed for you too! There may be cheaper options but I want it done the right way with good quality materials. If you read my first post thats the guy that they recomend to fit em. Hope that helps.

dandyexhaust quoted $600 for chrome hpc coated mild steel.

thats with silicon and that. but i have to fit the cooler myself. which aint too hard.

race readiatiors get there cooler piping done by dandy exhausts most of the time, and that is not inclusive with the cooler. so extra ontop of $700. they dont use truck cores.

ehh Adzmax thanks heaps mate i should be gettin a cooler shortly im just gonna save some $$$, i gave them a call yesterday and spoke to them a bit, sounds very professional. I will go for the $750 one. Where did you get the piping done coz the guy there refered me onto a guy that does the fitting and piping. I called him to and he said it would cost $550 to fit with silicone hoses and stainless steel piping. What do you think about that? Is that a good price?

Thanks heaps man for your help!!!!

:P

ehh dabigbolf no problem man, race radiators told me about this guy named Benny that specialises in the imports and especially nissans. He said he'd do the fitting with stainless steel piping and silicon hoses within 4hours for $550.

His number is 0417 334769.

Let me know how you go mate

:uh-huh:

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
