Denver, the DD unit estimated 520hp @ engine or so.

but eitherway i'm flowing enough air without even pushing it for 442.1rwhp... my smaller cooler is the same style just in smaller size(also hybrid bar and plate) and I know of people pushing over 2bar through them without hassle.

Bear in mind hes talking about stock power figures, so the % rule goes out the window, its more of a guide how to work out your losses..

and check the main page out, hes written a lot of techo stuff on why estimated figures to flywheel power are wrong..

i really doubt your loosing 80hp through the drive line..

type:- RHK (exactly like a hybrid cooler)

size:- 600x300x75

price:- $550 :) hehehe me gots special price though :(

guys at works reckon the piping for 33's be ready in about 1-2 weeks, not sure how much piping is though

and for a little inlook into how good this coolers are, xspeed is currrently using one on there twin turbo 350z :) although they using the thicker cooler :D same brand though, doubt it they would use a shit cooler on dat car :)

adrian :)

cheers guys, 550 hey, is that for the 600x300x75?? bar and plate....im getting the 600x300x100 for a little more than that, but ill let you guys know how much i got it for after i get it coz i dont wanna get your hopes up.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
