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...

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
