True Or False ?

[r34unit]

Is it possible to fit a cooling pro intercooler kit or a hdi intercooler kit in a r34 gtt without cutting a hole for the cold side !

I have a mate that when he had his skyline a few years ago, said he installed a hdi kit with out cutting any holes .

Has any one else achieved this ?

[SiR_RB]

Yes if it's a return style intercooler kit which uses the existing cooler pipes holes in the passenger guard

There's Another way

You can run the cold pipe under the front rail. Leaves it hanging down in the weeds a bit though.

Have u done this or do know any one that has ?

Pics ?

I have a return flow setup. Haven't seen an under rail install in 10 years.

Either go with a return flow, or you will need to get creative. I have fitted many different cooler setups to Stagea's and Skylines, all of which are on here somewhere if you search.

[ARTZ]

they are? where do you hide all this creativeness i never see it?

[r34unit]

i cant find any info or pics about running the cold side with out cutting any holes !

but he is 100% sure he did not cut any holes in his r34

Yours is on here Artz, and I have done a few coming up beside the radiator, it's quite tight through there though. (works better on the S14/15)

Can any help me with some pics or links ?

Just open your bonnet and have a look at where the pipe could/would run if you were to do it.

[r34unit]

I see where it could go but don't know about the clearance between the ground and pipe

[GTSBoy]

Clearance = measurement from ground to car - diameter of pipe. If you're happy with the number, run with it.

Just buy a return flow, why waste time and money on a kit that has to be modified, the cooling pro ones are cheap as chips.

if you are keeping the standard intake plenum, and are willing to cut up the drivers side of engine bay, get pipework like this..(Gibson motorsport R31 GTSR)

If you just want a hassle free FMIC that doesn't involve any cutting of anything, then get a return flow cooler kit from BLITZ.

Looks like this..

If you want to spend less and still not cut any holes, then get a cooling pro/Just Jap/*insert other ebay kits here*

I sold an ARC return flow kit and replaced it with an R32 GTR core and Gibson motorsport type pipes.

Not sure how much room yours has down beside the radiator, and if you want to compromise on pipe diameter, but this is what I do for the s14/s15. Trim the shroud and run stainless down beside the fan.

I have also done a few custom installs, here is one with the aircon removed and the pipes through the side of the radiator. With a FFP this would be the shortest possible outcome.
