Hi guys.. i've got an r32 gtst, and will be looking at getting a cooler in the coming months. I want to keep to a SMIC if possible... so i was wondering, what are my options.. are there any decent bolt on coolers i can use? I looked at a PWR direct fit one, but i cant really justify spending $1k+ on a sidemount.

Cheers, Phil.

Hey, thanks for the reply.

Yeh no track time, and probably looking at about 170-180ish kw max... but that wont be for a while. Still, i'd like to plan ahead.

So the r34 cooler is a straight bolt in? or requires modding?

As far as i know the piping is different... there are plenty of threads on it, try searching.

I think just needs different return pipe welded on. dont take my word for it.

Also for that power the 34 SMIC will be fine.

You gotta look at cost of cooler and the fabrication to make it suitable to fit and work out if its worth getting or just gettin a FMIC...

34 cooler is not a direct bolt on for R32. R32 piping is opposite to R34.

HKS and ARC make R32 SMIC bolt ons.

Your after 170-180 and it wil do that fine...

It WILL be good up to 200rwkw

I have heard 230rkwk but dunno how correct that is.

Those are the specs of the 34 cooler right?

Sorry.. may fault.. i didnt write my question propperly lol..

I was wondering on what kind of power the stock 32 cooler can handle.. until i can save up and get a new one fitted.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
