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)

    • @Supernanoyour car has ended up in my hands and I was wondering if there has been any work done to the motor?  
    • Sigh... yeah OEM mount rear battery, very R33, very demure, very mindful.
    • Would need a substantial current draw in the car to make a bunch of sparks. Obvs to now test resistance to ground of the car's B+ lead. If there's a short there, you'll see it. Only likely place for that, as you suspect is alternator. But there is also the possibility that rats have had a chew on some insulation. Shitbox has the battery in the boot, yeah? Plenty of cable to attack.
    • Oh, I thought of that too... I disconnected the battery and hooked up the leads direct to the car without the battery in place. Sparks... I suspect the following: Alternator has decided to kill itself Starter has decided to kill itself I'll recharge the battery, then unplug both, and go from there. The above might take 6 months - however I did buy a Victron 15 AMP trickle charger, apparently it's better than CTEK?
