Hey guys,

Just wondering if this intercooler (off JustJap) would fit my R33. Its a series 2.

These are the specs: 600 x 300 x 76mm (3" Outlets)

I also need the right piping kit off JustJap too. But am unsure about sizes etc..

Any help would be appreciated. Cheers :D

Yeah it should fit, its looks simular to that of the over the block intercooler kits also for sale on just jap. I put the blitz return flow kit on mine, fit like a glove. Ur prob best off to buy a kit.

After having a look and doing a bit of research, it seems the Cooling Pro piping kits are not easily installed and most people are having issues. Need to know if theres any other piping kits that would fit that intercooler, or how to deal with a cooling pro one. Right now ive only ordered the intercooler itself and am waiting/shopping around for pipes etc. ANy help would be appreciated :)

Most coolers for R33's have the inlet and outlet on the bottom so most piping kits will be the same. The difference is usually in return flow or over the radiator (for lack of a better description) cooler kits. The return flow will utilise your standard piping on the passenger side of the car, where as the over the radiator type will require you to cut a hole under the washer bottle somewhere to run an intercooler pipe up there and over the radiator to the crossover pipe

Theres less work involved with return flow, but you will probably still require to cut the front bar and maybe even the reo bar a bit.

If you are likely to get pulled over and have the police go through your engine bay then I would go return flow, Unless you make the hole you cut for the other type look like its done properly, or get it engineered.

Theres plenty of piping kits on ebay for that intercooler u have, u will have to go with the over the block set up and drill a 3inch hole like cal said.

Have a look threw this Hybrid install guide, it will give u some idea of what ur up for with the over the block style fmic.

Not sure about the washer bottle, thats why i went the blitz return flow set up, easier install. no drill holes etc. I only had to trim the reo bar and take some of the front bar aswel.

you can keep your washer bottle with most intercooler kits (piping kits). Mine has a front facing plenum and the way my piping is I had to relocate my washer bottle but I do have 3" piping as well. With my old cooler kit I think I had to cut a mount for the washer bottle but the washer bottle wasnt really effected

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
