i was looking at 100mm cores...as i want to throw the twin set up and got a single set up, and how i was seeing this is at say the same boost level the big single is sure to be pushing more air than the twins. am i correct? so the larger core wont be too bad

how does a 100-105mm core fit on the r32 GTR front like? is there much modifying the front bar and reo...not concerned about the reo bar as it needs either to be replaced or to have a bit of time spent on it. thats story for another time...just a stupid mistake someone made that had the car b4 me

i have a 90mm ARE custom job, and the reo and part of the front bar was cut. spoke to ARE and they recommended this tube and fin, will happily keep temps down at track to around 450rwkw. it's a bit overkill but if the motor pops and I build an engine, I won't have to upgrade the cooler again.

mmm...so was there much cut off the front bar for the 90mm core to fit?

what power levels would a 70mm ARC cooler handel?

im not to concerned about cutting up the reo bar. as that has already been done to fit the N1 vents. but would live to avoid cutting too much off the front bar if possible but will if need be

the ARE guys will make you a custom sized core, thats whats really good about them. (www.are.com.au)

yep - they don't make a 90mm tube/fin as standard fitment.

just give them a buzz and have a chat!

on This Page they have a Type E28 610x300x73 core that will do 400kw conservatively...

Ive got a HKS 100mm one on mine and it fits in behind the reo...i thinks its a matter of how well you can manouvre your piping and cooler to get it sitting in the right spot mostly. Even if you had to make some custom brackets like myself...

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏

      Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.

      Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
