damn you i just had to cut down on spending and you come up with this.

Ok, questions, will they produce a relocator kit, i know i can buy elsewhere, but getting one from the same provider as the kit and lines and of equivalent quality is a big plus to me, if they'll make a kit as an option i'm sure there will be plenty of interest.

Second, once this GB ends can i still nag you for a kit like i did for the brake lines??

Ok I will find out about the relocater.

Also found out about the sandwich plate. Because the sandwich plate has the built in thermosat there is no room for extra sensor locations. Makes sense as the only ones I have seen with the ports for sensors are non thermostatic.

Depends if this one goes ahead I suppose. So far the interest is a lot less than I was epecting.

I'm damn interested - but as I just spent (what I consider) a small fortune on new rims, I'm not sure I have the funds available right now to buy it. Annoying as I'd been pricing up parts for an oil cooler kit recently (earls core, greddy sandwich plate w/thermostat, braided lines, etc) - worked out around $600 - so this would be significantly cheaper... *sighs*

Excellent :)

Amazed people aren't jumping onto this. Doubt you can get a better oil cooler kit for under $1000 and given most of those under $1000 don't have a thermostat in them.

Put me down for a 19 row kit please :)

Or should I go 25 row? It will be going on a ~250rwkw RB25 R32, street driven 99.9999% of the time, but I live in an area which gets up to 45 degrees in the summer...

Yeah.

Also, since the sandwich plate doesn't have ports on it, where can I tap these from? Or do I run an additional sandwich plate to get the ports?

As in what can you put additional sensors onto? Well basically the best option would be to run a remote filter relocation kit and run extra sensors of that.

I emailed Hel regarding the remote oil filter relocation kits as to how much extra they would be. So will see what they say.

If it fits without needing an engineering degree or cutting then I'm in for a 25 row. I already have an oil relocation kit, would this bolt on to it then? Perfect it it would.

It's all good with a thermostat but what temp does the thermostat kick in at?

The thermostat opens up at a good temperature of 80 degrees.

:)

The fitting shouldn't be that hard. Like I said I will do a DIY for fitment into the drivers side duct.

As to the fitment of your current relocater kit, it just goes in line with the oil cooler kit. So basically any relocater kit fits (might just need two different sized fittings).

Yeah. See what HEL say about the relocator, keen to hear.

i'll grab a 19row kit phil.

doing the rb20/30 oil block is the way to go. for extra sensors just use a brass adaptor where the factory sensor is.

Thanks, missed the 80degrees comment watching Erics wakefield vids :) A good temp, those at 60 are just too low.

Looing forward to the DIY, and will hopefully fit the larger one as well.

I would love one but I have just bought an Earls thermostat for $200 and a relocation thingy just need the 19 row core. If anyone already has a core and just wants the rest of the kit Ill buy the core off them! Seatrab and Mocal are top brands.

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
