There is plenty of water flow through the top of the radiator, i just pulled the cap off with the water temp at 64 deg and started the car and there was heaps of water flow going through the top of the radiator.

It all started after the GTSS turbos went on. So Im considering just getting new water pipes for the turbos and see if they help at all, a set if about $60 on ebay. I cant see the turbo feed and drain pipes cauing the engine water temps to get that high but on idle.

Im getting cams in the next few months. So will be doing the 100000km service at the same time. Would an N1 water pump be of an advantage or would the std be better. Will get a new craig davies clutch fan aswell.

The impellor design of the Nismo should flow more water with the same effort but how much effect that would have on cooling is probably jack shit. Cooling the water is all in the radiator. Get a triple core.

It flows less water than the standard one so it doesn't cavitate at high rpm

i had a wierd issue with my car after changing the turbo so this is a long shot for you...

my tuner left the splash gaurd off the bottom of the car after i picked it up and wasn't until the following week i figured out the issue as the fan was blowing the dirt around on the drivway... i then got it put back on and the car ran cooler... just a thought.

Yeh I had the splash tray off for a bit and placed it back on along with the diffuser and hasnt made a stick of difference

BSA not really understanding where your going with that one, even if it was the stock thermostat it would still stay open in this weather. Also when the thermostat closes it allows the coolant to heat up quicker.

When I was looking at going to a nismo thermostat I did heaps of research there are a few opinions on them. Most people recommended to only use them for track use as some people had overheating problems when used on the road that's why I suggested it. I know I sound stupid but just sharing what iv learnt over the years

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
