do hks make bar and plate coolers..??

end tanks dont look like something hks would put out. but still looks good.. got a pic of the cooler cross over pipping. i like how greg made the crossovr return 2 pieces so u can lower it more and miss the bonnet and bring it closer to the battery to miss the fan blades...

nah its one piece :) fan had to be... "modified" for now.... although i am going to get 2 x thermal fans to replace it anyways.

i never had to cut an blades on none of the kits apart from 1 hybrid kit.. :)

yeah 2x thermos will be fine. autobarn had a sale for ice cool 14-18inch thermos

Hey matey, id personally stay away from thermo fans, they will never match the standard fan for cooling performance.

i personally prefer them. used 1x 14 or 16inch "ice cool" thermo on the RB20 sil due to space.. sits around 80degrees quite nicely.has no a/c condensor or anything obstructing the way as i made it as efficient as possible.

well the car sounds a bit like a truck at the moment from the fan trim, and i am worried about mis-alignment, and water pump issues down the track, so i would much rather have the thermals than have to purchase a new water pump.

also.

heres a pic with the bumper (which needs paint bad!)

  • 2 weeks later...
the stock shroud & clutch fan works heaps better than 2 thermos without shroud.

on my 33 i was having heating issues when i put the 2 thermo's on, and they were 2x14" ones too!

humm =\ my shroud doesnt fit my new radiator, so ive been running stock fan with no shroud. I dont have a digital temp readout, but needle has never moved from the dummy guage on the dash... i was planning on putting a couple of thermos in but now you've got me worried =\=\=\

I put a 16inch s-blade SPAL fan on my cefiro and it runs cool as. Put one of those on with a fan controller and it would be sweet as.

    • The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.

    • South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
