im so mad with my cooler kit rite now..

got a hybrid one for an r34 gt-t thru that damn group buy ages ago

just started installing it thise weekend

so far i have been working on r33 instructions that they gave me which is quite different

had to make my own brakets as theirs do not fit!

been working on it for 2 full days straight and now i cant get the bonnet to closed as they still hit fan blades even tho ive cut them enuf already

oh and not to mention asked for red silcone back then and got red and they was told they had no blue left so.....

not happy

what should i do!?

Power digger actually have an R34 there that they are sponsoring and the cooler they put on it fit nicely.

Plates are ONFILE its a yellow R34 GTT.

It seems that there is alot of mixed reaction and fortune with these kits.

All the kits ive had personal experience with went it with only the slightest modification and they havn't had any problems at all.

Maybe its just luck of the draw.

Yeah i had a fun experience with mine as well Driver, 5 hours my ass... I've had mine on for about 2 months now and the piping is already starting to bubble, its not fazing me that much not to concerned with the look as long as its doing its job!! The thing i was most peeved about was there was no return for the standard boost solenoid in the in let manifold and when i rang powerdigger they just said yeah you'll have to that yourself. I did take the opportunity to remind him that this was a "kit" custom built for R33's so.... That got me no where so out came the drill.

Works good now thou so can't complain really. And had a Link ECU installed the other day and the dyno tuner and i where both impressed with the combined packages result so all well that ends well... for the time being.

    • Thanks, I'll have to cobble something like sonicii did, will report back
    • Agree! I still believe I have the quietest 400kW+ R33 in Australia.
    • ah gotcha ill go remeasure again, thanks for all the tips. when i measured the TPS 5v reference voltage, i put my multimeter leads on 5v power and strut tower bolt, it gave me 5v with boost sensor disconnected and with boost sensor connected it gave me 1.4v. ill try remeasure again this time with volt meter both on the 5v reference and TPS signal ground wire.
