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:

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
