Nice, must admit I was a bit jealous once it started going together...

Did we get the fan direction right?

Sure did. 'Cause I can't hear it kick in, not like the factory one. I was lucky to see it just stop spinning yesterday morning before going to work.

I just need to organise that waterproof connection you showed me.

That's excellent mate, smarter than we look eh? Maybe one weekend soon,you can just drop in & we'll do the plug. Only need to pull the grille back out to get at it, less than half an hours work, and you'll be on your way.:thumbsup:

The sway bar group buy isnt even over yet and I'm looking at more bits...

Just wondering if anyone is interested in a new group buy for these? Seems like 10 is the magic number.

I'm keen to help out to get this sorted.

HDI intercoolers are about $770 + $50 shipping on ebay, so any saving would be worthwhile.

Are HDI the only people doing kits? Not worth talking to PWR or similar?

The other kit is the Blitz cooler kit from Just Jap at about $900.....the HDI ones are better!.....not to mention the price being better. PWR will custom make one for you but unless your planning on running 500AWKW's it's not really worth it as we have proved how well the HDI one flow's.

What power are people using these things to ?

I'm about 500hp at the crank on BP98 atm.......Aaron on his next run will be about 550-570hp at the crank on E85.....this is with the VQ25.....both of us run the HDI FMIC....GT2!......neither of us have had flow problems with it....should be good for at least 600hp.

i second that!

the other reason why its much better is because theres a minimal pressure loss which means your turbo wont work as hard to fill up the huge core, as it would a blitz

I enquired with PWR, but the cost was too high although their coolers are pretty good.

Ryan, if you want an HDi cooler, I can organise it for you at the GB price as I have for others since the GB.

PM me know if/when you want to go ahead :)

hey man keen as how much for the hdi intercooler are these the new gt 2 pro kits they have for the nm35 with the new hdi clamps , if so keen as man just got my exhaust and wnat to do intercooler

bought one of these and never turned up got a refund as was sik of getn stufed arond so up for a new one

GT2 = yes

HDi clamps = If you are referring to these http://hybrid-power.com/HDI%20CLAMP/HDI%20CLAMP.html, yes there is one in the kit for joining the piping behind the washer bottle. The rest are used on the silicon joiners and are basically these http://www.norma.net.au/norma-gbs.html

I'll check shipping to NZ, PM me your address so I can get an accurate quote.

Cam not trying to knock those HDI silicone joiner clamps.. but i found the reason why mine kept blowing off is because the band is too large area wise.... also the HDI ones cant be tightened as much or the bolt tightening them snaps. and obviously not tightening enough is not good.. the thread also strips..

reccomend using generic SS ones with a thinner band.. havnt had problems since thumbsup.gif

EDIT: that and 20 psi

No stress mate, just giving them the heads up as to which clamps are in the kit.

As an aside, not one of my clamps have come off nor loose.

I did strip one though but only because it couldn't really fit around the joiner to grab enough thread :blush: .

I only found that the one that connects to the BOV intake pipe was juuuuust big enough, but have had no issues with any clamps coming off... then again, I haven't heard of anyone else having a prob with them either :ph34r:

lol Craigs did once..

but im the only one using them running 20+ psi lol

i had a problem with the drivers side part of the cooler clamp..

BUT.. none the less, a Great product! blowing a cooler hose turns the car off so it doesnt damage anything anyway

Awesome news, cheers.

Search showed up the Blitz kit, but seemed like it was a pain to fit and had no benefit over the HDI. PWR was just someone I was curious about. Figured the cost would be high but didnt know if they were good enough to make it worthwhile.

Will go the HDI shortly! Thanks!

Looks like the thermo fans are still available... http://cgi.ebay.com.au/12-INCH-LOW-PROFILE-HIGH-PERFORMANCE-THERMO-FAN-/120697595024?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c1a232490#ht_1556wt_689

They're still available with the wiring kit, but looking at this thread seems like the wiring kit isn't required.

If I have just given everyone the wrong link please let me know...

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
