Fabricate A Return Flow Intercooler And Other Stuff For Me? :)


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

After contemplating getting myself a tig welder and doing all this myself, i thought I'd check to see if someone on here is willing to and can do it cheap for me?

All this would be for my R32 GTST has an rb20

I would be after some return flow piping to fit this intercooler http://justjap.com/store/product.php?productid=19813&cat=298&page=1 with stock piping connections.

Also a new intake pipe with both oil and bov return pipes plumed in.

lastly I'd need a new V-band dump pipe made for the new turbo (kando TD05/6)

Now i realise the chances of any of this being done without seeing the car is small but what are the chances of say the return flow piping? Looking at getting this done first!

Anyone keen to give it a go. Doesn't matter if its done using lobster cuts or bending just as long as it works. :)

Thanks for any help.

I'll do it for you mate message me if interested 0449831518. I can come down there tho it would be easier if you could make it up to Gosford is that possible? Talk about prices and how you want things done when I see the car

Edited by Bsa

if your going to go return flow why dont you buy a return flow cooler??????

like the blitz ones or somthing similer

l

Purely because I'm cheap and that's an expensive kit for the r32 (700$ish) and I'm going to be painting it black too so wouldn't want to ruin one of their kits.

You'll have a msg soon just sorting some stuff out before i commit. Gotta compression test engine first before i begin all these mods! And i tried today and my guage is faulty.

If you bring it up here I can do it. I think the return flow from that cooler will be more expensive as more pipe is needed you also run a risk of crushing pipe on a speed bump. Unless you wanted it to look totally stock. I have a return flow cooler here it's yours for $50 I don't need it anymore. Otherwise I have a gtr cooler in good condition then I'll run the piping over your cam covers will look smick. Let me know what you want to do

I was thinking of something like this guy did http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/331717-r32-return-flow-intercooler-kit/ Looks nice and doesnt seem any lower than a normal Intercooler would be!

The whole point of getting the return flow is i don't want to cut a hole in anything. Want it to connect to the stock piping for the side mount intercooler. Everything will be sprayed black aas to attract less attention.

No I didnt trim the reo bar, but I had to use smallish pipe to clear everything, and used stainless as it was rubbing.

It was one hell of a 180 degree lobster. >_<

I don't have any pic of the pipe that Scott made(absolute piece of metal art) but have a pic of what he had to deal with..it had been more easy if the FMIC was 60mm but i'm a bit slow at the brain and went over the top with 75(actually 82mm on a hybrid intercooler)and it's rubbing against the angle frame you can see in the pic...you can hear it when i start the car but while driving is ok(maybe need a bracket to hold it in place, but it's something for the future)

Feel free to give me a call, pm or sms if you would like some work done. Quality fabrication work and welding.

I can tow the car down here and you can drive it back ;)

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
