Na, Jez just told me I can't run high boost like I wanted to.

Just fitted 570's and E-manage , he reckons the stock intercooler is holding it back.

I want to run over 20 psi but it's tuned at 16 as there's high risk of detonation.

219 rwkw though,on a safe tune , that was actually my goal.

It appears there's a fair bit more there if I want it, ... hmmm tempting :yes:

re: slim a/c fan.

Can I get any universal slim fan ?

Supercheap auto...

Any tricks I need to know about this install ?

cheers

Yes, any universal fan is fine.

No tricks; just make sure it's turning the right way.

So looking at stock front bumper, only has 100mm slot for air to reach the intercooler.

Looking at the height of them they are around 300mm.

I'm thinking the front bumper restricts airflow .

Will the HDI GT2 pro really make a difference with the small air duct ?

Can't seem to find any front spoilers anywhere for M35.

Thinking of cutting a huge area to expose the HDI completely.

Anyone else done this ?

I will soon have a m35 full aero kit for sale. [emoji6]

i don't think there is much difference if you can DIY with stock bumper for the lower grill. but i'd say aero bumper is much beautiful.

what i am worry about is the big FMIC will block air flow to the poor radiator. i saw the highest temp on stock intercool is 101-102C when hot day then it will go down after the small fan working.

after fit HDI FMIC with 2 thin fan running, i saw 104C degree on hot day and i don't know when will it go down if keep stuck in traffic.

also i will put a big square custom number plate on front bumper to block the lower grill more :rofl2::rofl2:

My engine temps did not change from running the stock tiny intercooler to running an HDi kit.

Scotty's cooling mod, and a larger capacity radiator will improve the cooling system's ability to shed heat.

IMO; the OEM (quite noisy I agree) is far superior to thermo fans for heat management.

I've run a number of different setups using high capacity fans, and custom made shrouds to ensure efficiency, and nothing works better than the stock Clutch fan.

Dolphin front bar for NM35 is unmatched for airflow.

I did notice an improvement in cooling system performance when I changed from the stock "smiley face" front bar to the Aero Kit front bar.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
