Issues With Cooling Pro Stealth Kit

I now have my stealth kit but am having major issues putting it on, everything seems to be out by about an inch, I don't know whether I've been sent the wrong kit or the welding on it is buggered but it's got me shitted off haha.

So I was wondering if anyone out there who has fitted one to a S1 R33 GT-ST has any pics of it mounted with the front spoiler off or even just it sitting behind the front bar, it would be awesome, thanks in advance if anyone does.

Or if there are any pointers out there anything would help. Saying 'don't buy a cooling pro' does *not* help the situation btw (even though I'm sort of leaning towards that).

i fitted a cooling pro kit on mine. not the stealth kit. a hybrid copy, tube and fin, with trust style elongated end tanks.

i had to mix and match brackets, and basically make the thing fit. no way the standard fittings were going to work.

i also ended up using a longer silicone joiner in the engine bay where two of the cooler pips were too far apart.

just get creative. it seemed like the guys at JJ chuck a bunch of brackets in there without much thinking going on.

it doesnt look like you've bent the chassis tip either. this will allow you to slope the cooler, bottom side towards the car. it might make things line up.

I bought a Just Jap kit years ago and had the same problem. Ended up having to make new brackets from aluminium to space things out.

Can you move the cooler back further towards the radiator? If not, what is blocking it?

the ac fan is the major thing in the way that wont allow it to swing an further bak towards the radiator

also yours has just the single bracket in the middle on the cooler to hold it up, mine had to and needed to be bolted up to the reo. whats the go here? i think ur one would be easyier to install and if anything hold ur cooler further back...

Worst case remove the pipe and take it to someone who can weld an additional 30mm to it.

Aren't the cooling pro kits a China brand item? I'm seeing alot of victims from cheap china parts lately, the GReddy coolers arent that much dearer...

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
