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!

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
