Nytsky's Engine Build

[Lazy-Bastard]

I have a 600 x 300 x 100, bar and plate though

I can make it cheap enough to be worth a try though

If you're coming to QLD for Jambo send me a PM, I'm just down the road in Ipswich

HDI make a cooler that is tube and fin 600x300 and is 96mm thick, pretty close to 100

[NYTSKY]

Not yet they dont. That cooler has been in development for 2 years now, not sure if they will ever bring it out.

I bought a 100mm Tube and Fin cooler when i was at Jambo on the weekend so all is well.

Paul has stripped my engine bay and painted it. He has also sent all brackets and some bolts to get zinc plated.

The ASR Race Sump arrived on Monday, will post pics up soon. I also ordered a set of light weight underdrive pulleys for the alt and water pump, should get to Pauls next week for him to put the finishing touches on the bottom end.

nick (warlord) is running a hdi cooler & i think its 80mm?

[s13_Skyline_inside]

ive got one on my car, got it a few years ago, http://www.performance-wise.com/page43.htm about halfway down the page but yeh they are under re-development and they are aparently 94mm now, im pretty sure they were 96 mm before, not that 2mm will make much difference

Small update,

Most of the zinc plating has been finished.

All wiring has either been hidden or re-worked.

Head will be sent to the machinist to get stripped, ported and holes enlarged to accommodate the thicker headstuds.

Should be able to get some pics up soon.

[Marko R1]

sounds like you are going down the path of building a showcar

[NYTSKY]

No not a showcar. Just a very nice, clean one.

The engine bay is starting to put the rest of the car to shame, so i guess it will have to be resprayed eventually.

Paul has pulled out all stops this time round and wants to make sure everything that can be done is done.

pics of zinc plating?

[Supa Steve]

I hear a whisper tonight that Paul has a couple of his mates from the Vodafone V8 supercar team involved in this build.

Can't wait to see the final result.

[NYTSKY]

Stock worn zinc plated bracket next to new zinc plated one.

[Marko R1]

paul does very nice work.

i had no idea of his attention to detail though

[NYTSKY]

New cooler dummy fit.

[PM-R33]

That engine bay looks so nice freshly repainted!

[TiTAN]

which intercooler did you end up going with?

[NYTSKY]

600x300x100 Tube and Fin.

Generic Brand.

So if anyone is after my old cooler, cheap. Call or email Paul.

[NYTSKY]

That engine bay looks so nice freshly repainted!

Would look better with a nice set of headlights

[PM-R33]
