car bra any good for temp use on the car when driving on the freeway.....thinking of getting one made up (going to b for dirt cheap thnx to mates contacts)...just want to avoid shit hitting the intercooler and bending the vents...getting a mesh on the intercooler was an option but not much room between the front bar and the intercooler...:(

any advice for me? :D

What material would the car bra be made of? Is it breathable? If not, how the hell are you meant to get air flow to your intercooler if you're blocking it? :blink:

I used to drive my car to work through the industrial estates, trucks everywhere, shit on the roads and never ending roadworks....Cooler was fine, copped a few bugs which wash off easily enough.

It was powdercoated, never had stone chips or anything

lol...ya ill be making sure its breathable...not tht dumb...lol...not sure about the materail...this guy who owns a car bra shop is getting it done so expect it to be a good materail...

mine isnt...got too many of my vents bent from just one drive up and down from shepperton for deca...got heaps bent...so only coz i am getting one cheap and meant to be a good quality one i am thinking of getting it...but have no idea about them so was asking what material is the best and is it really a good option to prevent any furthur damage on the intercooler?

have too many stone chips on the car...the lip looks disgusting.. :(

lol I don't think car bra will cover cooler, that's just silly

you wrecken? i am not sure how the guy is going to make it...but ill only get one if it is made to protect my cooler from bugs and shit from bending the vents and let the cooler breath as close to it s max as possible....

They're fins not vents..

Never really seen any XR6 turbo's with car bras, but I'm sure they make em...it's probably a flexible mesh over the cooler intake...Wouldn't really leave the bra on when thrashing it though, would more than likely reduce the air flow through the cooler

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
