Trent, you seem to be the resident guru on intercoolers.. Could you tell me if you have seen any successful track cars running the standard crossflow (pass over radiator) intercooler kit by justjap?

Am liking the price, want the cross flow for sake of engine bay setup.. but dont know if i should jimmy in a GTR cooler (i have lying around) with a cooling pro pipe kit OR just buy a cooling pro kit.

options are: cooling pro crossflow kit, GTR cooler with cooling pro pipes choped to suit, GTR cooler with end tanks chopped and 2.5" outlets put on straight with cooling pro pipe kit.

Would be good to hear some opinions..

we send alot of cusomers that way for thier turn flow stuff, pretty good value for money. The also stock the blitz gear which is one of the best coolers around for skylines.

so cooling pro would flow really good for up to like 600 hp ? wat bout hdi ? i dont wana spend to much money but i dont wana get something shit either

please help

thanks

To be asking a question of 600hp and cooling-pro would appear to me that someone needs to do some signifigant research.

The chinese kits/copies generally are fine for 250-280rwkw... but much more you really need to spend a tad more and get better cores etc etc.

600hp would require a decent cooler. R34 GTR ones will do 350rwkw (~600hp) easily enough.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
