Can anyone tell me if the Nismo oil cooler has a thermostat? [mention=137648]baicai[/mention] do you have one fitted to yours? I'm wondering if there is any issue with over cooling the oil in normal driving situations.

Nismo oil cooler does not have a thermostat, no issue with over cooling, only issue is you have to warm up the car for at least 5 mins before driving.

What happens if you just start it and drive it? Takes to long to come up to temperate you think?

I am not a big fan of letting cars warm up by having them sit there and idle. I also can not be stuffed with it either. If i cant just start it up and drive it then id rather buy a hks unit with the thermostat and an extra 2 rows on the oil cooler itself.

Any cooler regardless of brand that doesn't have a heat exchanger like the stock one has the potential to overcool the oil if it doesn't have a thermostat. Some people just cover the cooler in Winter. On the other hand any car can be driven away from cold (I never idle cars for any length of time if I can help it) so long as you don't cane them before they get up to optimum operating temperature. Driving them is the quickest way to achieve this.

Would it be a waste to use oil cooler for a street car? I can imagine it being really useful in the track as you're doing wot most times... doh...

Yep, not required for Street use. I even have mine covered at the track unless it's a hot day.

Thought i had posted here but it appears not.... the Headrest on the interior has since been fixed as has the horn button been straightened haha, was a quick snap when instaling. Still restoring the foot rest.

Is that also the NISMO pedal kit? Looks like you have installed them over the top of the standard rubber pedals?  I have a set that I am yet to install and am wondering if this is the correct way.

Yep that's them, you drill into the metal for the clutch and brake pedal leave the rubber for the accelerator. Since they were not specifically designed for the 32. Alternatively you could buy a set of 34 pedals to suit.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
