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

ill tell ya now i bought a big fat 120mm cooler and it is the worst thing i ever done as it was nasty very nasty 2 fit,front reo had major surgery...if i was smarter i would have done what you did and asked people...

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...

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
