hay guys im looking into buying a front mount intercooler for my r34 gtt.

i want to make close to 300kw at the wheels with using the factory plenum.

so im looking for the best cooling option eg shortest piping and not cutting holes.

any advice will be great

cheers

Whoops you said no holes... Plazmaman does them too, but super Exxy.

I suggest Blitz kit, the Cooling Pro kits don't fit too well. Everyone has end up making brackets. On my friend's car, we opted to fitting it higher up which needed the foglight to be shaven.

Pay the difference and go the Blitz kit new.

you need to cut holes with that one?

Also its eBay, some people have had no trouble and some people have. No eBay item seems to be the same even if you end up with using the same brand as someone else's that doesn't guarantee it will work the same as theirs.

Just get a cooling pro kit... done.

If you want no holes, no headache, great fitment, no fking about, no custom brackets, and shit that lines up get:

Bolts up, the cooling pro one requires you to swear at it, make some custom shit and guess where everything goes because there's no manual.

Don't worry about pipework length. It's a myth. Let's look at a 3m length of 75mm pipe. Has volume 0.0044m3. That contains 5.5 grams of air at sea level and 40°C.

When your turbo is coming on boost it will be flowing at least 5000 grams/minute, which is 83 grams/sec. I'm pretty sure that you can see a pressure rise in that length of pipe inside 100ms and probably have full pressure no later than 200ms after the turbo is capable of supporting it. That's not lag. You can barely measure that sort of delay compared to how long it takes the turbo itself to actually spool up.

If you were able to shorten the pipework by a metre (or worse, it had to be 1m longer), the change in the pneumatic delay would be barely detectable against the mechanical lag.

So for easy fitment and no head f**ks buy a blitz kit.

Has any one do a thread on best flow and shorest piping ?

not really, but if you want shortest piping, etc..

  • GReddy Plenum
  • Custom piping
  • GT-R Core

But not really worth it, if you're just chasing under 300kW or so... Look at Hypergear, he is getting ~340+kW with standard plenum, and with a ling long FMIC

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
