The horn bracket in which the top bit of the cooler bolts to isn't directly in the centre of the car but slightly more to the driver's side and because of this, I actually bolted the bottom two brackets first.

One lines up with the bottom AC Fan bracket, and the other lines up with a spare hole (if I remember correctly). This way, the cooler will sit in the centre.

To then support the top bracket of the cooler, I cable-tied it to the hole in which I was going to bolt it to with the use of 5-7 cable-ties.

Dodgy.... BUT effective :P

This, believe it or not, holds the cooler very steady for the time being until I get a new bracket to support.

lol so its not a direct replacement for a skyline lol..... thats deceptive isn't it???? buying it because just jap says theres no hassel installing it..... i hardly call cable ties a direct replacement lol.... things we have to do for more powrer

Lol, you could say that :)

BUT

Then again, we could have also paid an arm and bought an ARC stealth cooler..

Pay peanuts, get monkeys... as most will say. :)

true,,,,, i agree,,,,, but seeing as the arc one is only $100 more expensive and having bought one i still feel riped off lol,,,,, guess you learn as you go.... and i wouldn't have winged if it was $400 which i recon something like this is actually worth.... but as i said earlier, aslong as it works and does the job

hey again Tom

just to clarify. where did you see the ARC version of this for only $100 more?

cause the only one ive found is off Nengun and its $1500. click HERE to see.

and could you post some pics of the cooler? like pics of the things your not happy with?

I was going to go for one of these too, but for some reason, it costs more to ship something from Australia to NZ than it does from Japan, and with exchange rates it was going to come close to 1K, so i grew a sac and bought a Blitz LM too.

AMAZING cooler. so simple to install and set up.

Im pretty sure there was a thread on here with pics of how the cooler fitted and the brackets that needed to be made for the top.

Im curious to know what car they designed the "direct fit" cooler on? As i cant recall anyone having that bracket line up? Whats the story?

With the side ones, not sure if its the same with the Stealth, but the Blitz has a nut and a bolt, and you just stick the bolt through a random hole in the chassy rail. Is it the same with the Stealth?

Can see it here...

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt
