casually going overfacebook i see this on 7tune. How do you get the flames like that just wondering

Setup Anti Lag, launch control etc in the ECU if it allows... Not needed if you don't have lag :P

You may want to run some allthread through the top and bottom flanges of the oil cooler to make sure its core is compressed/supported. When at temp if the thing just hangs from the top they can start to delaminate and damage the core. They need to be fully supported, especally if they are getting hit and banging around on a circuit.

Ooh forgot all about this post... Should probably do something about this :O

Speaking of oil coolers :P

What's your oil cooler brand and how many rows?

What were your temps at the track before the oil cooler? And what were your temps after?

Just curious how much of an oil cooler will reduce my temps from already 125-130c without one lol

Oil temps were horrible and would climb FAST.... The stock gauge i had was reading the sort of temps you were getting and it was all bad news :P

The core is just this one -

I figured i could always upgrade it later once i worked out what i was doing with the front end etc...

Oil temps now are very stable, with the new gauge it seems to sit on 90ish and only goes up if pushed hard but seems to recover quickly too! I havent seen it go over 100 yet!

Ill admit the radiator actually dropped the oil/water temps too, when first running the stock radiator and cooler it was OK but not overly impressive.... NOW with the bigger Racepace radiator etc fitted everything is more stable, i assume my engine was running warmer with the pissy stock 34 rad!

If it hasn't caused you any issues to date, I'm onto it! Cooling Pro 19 row it is!

Sweet! Mine has been fine.... Will update the core at some stage but while it works it can stay :)

Did it comes with the lines Mat or did you go purchase some?

Been looking into them and some come with thermostats do they?

The lines were custom made, its the best way to do it so you can locate it where you like!

The blocks have the thermostat inbuilt yes!

Carmen has ordered these, they are much better than the old stock seats that are now pretty squished due to my fat ass being in them.... They are GTR style and ADR approved so should be good enough for now!

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
