Aren't xr6 coolers taller, therefore giving more surface area for the incoming charge. Skylines are pretty much limited to 300 mm tall.

Yes fg are nearly as tall as the radiator. Ba/bf still get decent gains with a bigger cooler when over 250kw depending on the setup.

A lot of tuners have a simple sensor you can weld a bung on to attach and done. Cost maybe $50 for the bung welded and use whatever they already use

Handy to have IMO, especially if you wanna play around with a setup a bit.

Years ago my son got a Just Jap cooler for our GTR in 100mm, the biggest issue we had back then was the side brackets had to be cut, repositioned and welded which was a unseen (by him) cost, unsure if the current ones have this done correctly. (That was for the R32 GTR cooling Pro coolers)

Front bar on the R32 needed to be cut out about 20 or so mm to fit it back on.

In our case the OEM cooler was simply tired looking but flowed more than enough for what he had, our thoughts back then was that being an extra inch thicker it wouldn't add restriction but we never assumed it would improve over the OEM R32 GTR cooler, the OEM ones are known to be used on over 400Kw builds without issue.

As nismoid mentioned, its no big deal to add the bungs and take some measurements so you have some facts at hand when playing around with setup.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
