I am thinking about getting one of the new stealth cooling pro intercooler from Just Jap - see link below

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Co...94#entry3707494

They use the factory cooler pipes on a r33. Does anyone know/think they would match up to the Stagea factory pipes? If so it looks like an easy install!

i installed an R33 ARC FMIC, slightly shorter than these, bolted up to factory pipes, might just have to modify the mounting points slightly and do a bit of hacking on the front inner metal bar. But with enough skill and patience anything can be made to fit.

I don't see why it wouldn't fit because the pipes suggest that it would fit up really easily.

I'd much rather try and get this kit to work rather than their other kit which involves drilling a hole in the chassis.

Exactly what ive been looking for, thanks for putting it up. Ive ordered one, will let you know if theres any problems but i doubt it, its all in the same place.

Good work Momo. I think it will bolt straight up but now you will be able to tell us all.

they look good

look to be exact same size to my Apexi cooler, exact same shape etc except mine is HALF tube'n'fin and HALF bar'n'plate

Id be getting one of these intercoolers, if you want to use the same factory holes

you'll need a couple of stainless pipes tho to go from inside engine bay to the intercooler, I used a pipe kit off ebay

edit: I didnt hack anaything, bar the plastic Dayz front bar numberplate bracket (to open it up to let max air flow thru). if you install the 'cooler on a slight angle it fits without touching the reo bar

Tangles - i thought the pipes supplied would match up to the pipes used for the factory intercooler?

Do you have pics of the Dayz bar trim up - i want to do this too as the number plate bracket seems to fill half of the opening.I was concerned it might weaken the front bumper too much and i was uncertain how i would mount the plate afterwards.

oh I thought they didnt come with pipes.

nice buy if they do, thats for sure.

um, photos, none here at work

there are intercooler threads on here where Ive posted pics

just cut the dayz number plate section off (poorly cut, mind you) and bolted the number plate to the side air dam where the side mount used to be.

definately does not weaken the front area

Id like to get a small sticker number plate eventually.

i mounted my plate on the bar itself just above the original holes

Tangles, where in Adelaide are you?

I'd like to have a look at your intercooler install if you don't mind.

I've got a front mount kit coming for my RS4.

      Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.

      From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢

      Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
