I did a search and found a few references to 'I will be using it' or 'I am using it in my Toyota Lexus/LS1/something other than a Skyline'.

I would like to use it mainly for its non corrosive properties, but the thought of some extra help on a +40'C summer day also sounds good.

I beleive it would be fine for the motor itself, but the feed to the turbo and the heat in the turbo etc are a different animal.

What I want to know is - Is anyone using it on a Skyline? And if so what sort of turbo?

The guy who sells Liquid Intelligence 115a says that it won't work bbbbuuuuttttt he has another variant called Liquid Intelligence 115b that he says is fine. Now he is obviously enthusiastic and trying to convert the world - as well as sell product - so his word isn't everything.

So before I jump in at the deep end I thought I'd see if anyone else had talk the leap of faith before me??

I have a Gtst with a Garrett GT3076 btw - if thats at all helpful.

What is the boiling point of this liquid?

If it has a very high boiling point it is still getting hot.

How does the price compare with the proper amount of anti-freeze?

Is there any evidence that it has superior anti-corrosive qualities to your normal anti-freeze?

I have used this in my Skyline and noticed no difference ,I used it in a KTM 350 and it made a big difference couldn't get the bike hot enough to boil .I have run Lucas Super coolant in my Skyline and it runs about 3-4 deg cooler .We put it in a 427 BB ,650 Hp and it ran 8deg cooler .

Boiling point is 190C according to the very limited technical details I got from skimming his site. So yes, as said above it may not be boiling but its still hot. That being said if the damage is caused by caivitys created by boiling allowing exposed metal to get way, way hotter than 200C then this would help in that case I suppose.

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
