Hey Guys,

I skimmed through the intercooler thread, but couldn't really find an exact answer on what i want/need.

Here's what i want to do.

- put a fmic on as you can see i have plenty of room front bar wise, now i don't want to cut holes for piping as i want to keep it as legal as possible.

- is there a fmic kit that will bolt up to the standard pipework? or somehting that runs through the standard piping positions?

- who makes these and what are the prices.

- what do you guys reccomend as the best option

- keep in mind im not going for power with this car, its my daily while me and the mrs build our drag car.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Trent

Contact Just Jap...

They sell whats called a stealth intercooler similar what AVO sells, but at half the price... which allows all stock piping to be kept in the engine bay.

I know they sell these for R33's 34's 32s... im saving up my money to purchase one soon.

Maybe they mite b able to fix you up one for a stagea.

They are selling for i think 550 + freight.

Hope this helps.

Ok

Rubyn's set up with NO cutting :) : http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Fm...ag-t220673.html

Tangles did another nice setup here post #29 with plenty of pics: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/In....html&st=20

ARC do a kit for a 33 with piping back to stock and it fits the stagea.

If your not chasing power then why do you want it? Just for the look and more induction noise?

i didnt word that right, not chasing huge power big will be upgrading turbo manifold fuel and exhaust just the basics dont want a weapon.

the look is one reason lol as it looks aweful with that bar and no cooler, cooling , reliability abd power is also what im chasing with teh car.

thanks for the info, just contacted just jap and will call them in the morning

cheers

i emailed them regarding this, will it bolt straight up?

The cooler is the right setup, but those pipes look a little short to reach the stock rubbers!

I just spent $120 on bends and materials, and welded up my own piping.

:unsure:

      Odometer LCD is Intermittently Wonky

      By Duncan · Posted

      Hi mate, I have never had an issue with the odometer in mine (450,000+ klm now) and can't remember another post about it. Still, your description of the likely cause sounds spot on, so an electrics repair is probably the next stop.

      Cheers. I more want it quieter with the varex open. I only have the varex closed when i start up and roll out the driveway to keep everyone happy on days i take the car to work at 5 AM or come home late. So just a mod muffler will do tge trick? Something like that would require a retune hey?

      My BMW 335i

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I was going to say generally speaking if it's like 80k+ miles since the valve cover has been replaced you don't even attempt to just replace the gasket. The valve cover itself will likely be warped and it will continue to leak after replacement, just not as severely. The valve cover PCV diaphragm can also tear and create a major vacuum leak. Welcome to BMW life. My friend's 2006 330i was t-boned and totaled out so he also just got a 335i so I can add to this thread now.

      Odometer LCD is Intermittently Wonky

      By Kip · Posted

      Hi all, For my '98 260rs... The odometer LCD occasionally turns blank or gives me only the bottom half or top half of the numbers. It's intermittent, which leaves me to believe it's a dead solder or loose wire somewhere. The odometer itself works. When the screen comes back, kms have been added to the trip and overall meters. A couple questions: Is this a known issue with the Stagea? I didn't see it pop up in my quick search, but that could be my searching skills. How accessible is the LCD screen in the cluster? I'm hoping it's a remove and replace type situation versus cracking open the whole housing. I'm hoping you all can narrow some of my initial troubleshooting. Any experience or opinions would be helpful.

      Yeah. Seeing the finish line must be quite the motivation. Good on you for sticking with it. Understood about the model choice. Also, totally get the challenge with sourcing parts. Based on your handle, I'm just a few hours south of you. All the little things I've bought so far come with $30 shipping, even if it's just stickers for the boot!
