Rough indication on how much you WILL need to cut on a S2 to fit a Blitz LM/CS.

As you can see i cut it fairly tight so its less obvious. Absolute minimum required.

Is the reo the only part that needs trimming? Did you have to trim anything off of the chassis rails?

Anyone fitted one of the blitz coolers to a s1 or s1.5 R33?

Tried mine today and unless I mounted it incorrectly (I have no instructions) I will need to take a 50mm deep section out of the reo, which I wouldn't exactly call a trim or sweet FA :P

Hey guys,

Another relevant question to this thread;

I just installed my JJR Stealth cooler to my S1 R33, the reo needs the most minor of trims which is great.

My issue is that the parkers in my M spec bar foul the end tank of the cooler on the drivers side. I have the cooler mounted as far back as i possibly can.. The pipping all lined up perfect this way also. The top of the cooler is where it fouls, I have considered mounting it lower also yet this honestly wont help..

Has anyone else had this issue?

Thanks,

Yup i had that issue big time.

My front bar is slightly different than the run of the mill R33 so i had to take drastic measures with mine.

This is what the Drivers side looks like, unmolested.

And heres my molestation of the passengers side to clear the piping.

As you can see i had to remove nearly all of the black plastic, and pull the brass pins from the plug itself and cut it down flush so i could bend them out of the way for my spade terminals to push on..

There was no other way to make it work for me haha.

Doesnt look that shit hot, but it works, and i havnt had a problem with it in over a year :)

The good thing is, i believe most of the R33's share the same round orange indicator. So the housing shouldnt be hard to locate if you return to stock for selling etc.

Good luck!

Wait i just re read your post and realized you were talking about an S1, and the end tanks rather than pipework. Lol Sorry dude, not enough sleep...

Either way.. thats an option :) grind grind grind! Cut cut cut!

You just need to take your time and think things through :blink:

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
