Nissans from 1:30 onwards :D

First run we had ice on the plenum and the HKS bellmouth. Then removed the bellmouth and ice for comparison, as you can see made alot of difference. So now a water to air intercooler is on the cards.

Thanks to Mamoon for the clip!

I have heard and seen mixed results with WM.

But i have seen 2 cars with water to air coolers on the dyno and the results are amazing.

Another car i saw on the weekend had a box made around one of the cooler pipes and you drop ice or dry ice through a pipe next to the washer bottle.This car has made close to 600awkw.

do u have any pics of this setup?

i couldn't imagine the ice would last long, how often would u need to top it up on a hot day (or is it just for dyno runs)?

No pics of it, normal ice and water is used for dyno and drag. Dry ice is used for the street as it lasts longer.

the ice box would be for dyno runs/drags, if its just plain water to air it could be used all the time, what intercooler do you have at the moment dave? 100mm thick core?

Its a china spec 76mm one which ill be throwing in the bin very soon.

still got white wheels eh...?

not long til you're dating dudes now.

So last night wasnt a date?

Lol

Dave those vids of your car are pornographic! The way it sounds and just keeps climbing in power and revs is unreal. Love it!

It was too loud for the camera hence all the distortion, in the flesh it sounds like an F1 car :P

Its a china spec 76mm one which ill be throwing in the bin very soon.

Thats probably whats holding it back, stick a 100mm core in there. Everyone i have spoken to has said you need a thick intercooler if you want to push 400+ from the 35R

I wouldn't be blaming the cooler too much... It seems to be doing the job well it's just not big enough for the application!

I had a china spec 100mm with GTR style end tanks and it was freezing cold outlet temps running similar power at 24psi of a T04Z

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
