but they're still made of metal, ie conduct electricity. and they're still isolated by rubber mounts, ie store charge.

I thought they were a copper core with plastic end tanks? shrug, who cares, don't earth it if you don't want to.

err.... copper is a metal :D

its not a big deal to earth it im just curious as to WHY. u know these things called questions? its how we learn ;)

copper doesnt corrode, thats why ur pipes under ur house are made of copper..

these rads are alloy, they can corrode after a while as electrons pass through the rad having a bad reaction with the coolant..

so earth it, and it will last longer :D

yeah but that copper is also earthed...

anyways its a non issue earthing isn't hard.

1 more question, would the stock air snorkel fit over this radiator? in the picture the top steps down to sit flush with the rad support so it looks like it would fit.

save with combined delivery? how much for 2 delivered to 3058

why not just run a pipe from ur front bar to ur air filter like i did with mine (old setup)

its not about electricity its about the coolant corroding the metal, happens alot with fords that are old, split cores and rotted cores.

shipping

    • Started sifting thru my brakes to decide which ones I will run on Clem   Made me think I should just put them all on Silver...for when brake fade just isn't an option   Should be able to bump rotor up from 343x32 to 348x36 off Supra. Not sure if the Supra annulus is right for the Alcons or APs but trying g to find a used Supra\M4 rotor to test fit The Alcons seem to gain 1-2mm clearance which all helps  
    • So car is getting a few mods to the cage and some jacking points welded in Meantime Ol Silver gets a new gearbox and shiny clutch.  Old Box is being set aside for Clem  
    • Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.
    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate
