I didnt think you could use mild steel for cooler piping as it would rust. When you say rust proof it do you mean rustproofing both the inside and out? If so, how do you rust proof the inside??

powder coating the insides is possible, just difficult to get 100% coverage

Was going to make a new thread but Im curious if anyone would want to fabricate me some cooler piping, I was going to buy a Blitz LM intercooler for my r34 as it directs piping back under the cooler and into stock pipes but my other option is a titeass front mount and pipes.

Can anyone help? Sorry bout the highjack but why waste space..

Oh ill pay too :D in sydney

in my opinion stanless is the go easy to work with look great can be shiny can be mashined look or you can paint it and every place has it mandrel is good cause you can buy it at any decent fabricator,zaughst joint

i have doen all of mine in stainless always and when you are putting 20 psi thru it you can clam it down as hard as you want and the hoses wont blow off it would be the same price as ali

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
