hey has anyone mounted their oil cooler to their front mount? my braided lines were cut too short by previous owners to move anywhere else and I cant afford new lines. I went for a drive after fitting it and it obviuosly heats up my front mount but only the half its on. Do you think will be an issue in the long run? My car currently will sit on 80C standard drivng on the streets or drifitng.should i be worried for it to increase alot? I also have a 16" spal fan for extra cooling

Surely you have enough lines to accommodate some standoffs so that there is at least a small gap between the oil cooler and the fmic. If your lines are that long will the oil cooler not fit in the rf guard?

sounds more like you thought that was the easiest place for you to mount it cause your using cable ties through your FMIC...

Am I right?

I just LOL'd :laugh:

On a more serious note, what does water temp have to do with intake temp if the oil cooler is against a FMIC? Should be worrying about that and not water temp

Yeah oil cooler, usually hot, trying to transfer heat out of the oil into the air.

intercooler trying to stay cool to ''cool' the intake air...

wait your solution is to put a heater on your cooler...

just think about that one for a sec...

But as long as your water temp is fine, nothing to worry about???

      Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ?

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
