Has anyone here bought a cooling pro rad from just jap? how good are they? going to buy one for my 34 turbo but hearing from some that they tend to leak. Just wanting to know people with skylines input on this.

Had one in the 32GTR, mate had one in his 180sx and still using it for the v8 that is in it now...

They were/are good for the price. The only issue I have seen is that the early one's years ago had crappy filler necks and tended to leak. They fixed that pretty quick after that.

So thumbs up from me...

The water temp sensor bung in the bottom of the radiator isn't the best fitting, using a normal o-ring gasket mine still leaked so I had to use gasket maker to get a seal.

Also, on R33 the top tank doesn't have a cutout (it's too high on the passenger side) so if you are running standard airbox the intake duct won't fit properly. Not an issue if you're using a pod filter I guess.

They're cheap radiators but they do the job. Fenix make radiators with the correct relief on the top side if you have an R33. Haven't looked at the R34 model.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
