Just bought one of these bad boys:

https://plazmaman.com/product/gtr-r32-r34-pro-series-intercooler/

Should work well with the -9s and forthcoming e85 / flex conversion.

Thanks to @r32-25t

I am very interested to know how it turns out.  I'm also running -9s, but I think this intercooler may be too big for -9s.

No - not by a long shot mate. (600x300x76mm). These are made as a factory replacement.

You could even go the 103mm. Not really about size but efficiency. Some one with more smarts than me can explain about the drop and cooling..

I think the easiest way to think about it is......you cannot fit a big enough intercooler into the front of a car to reach the point where you would say it is "too big".

Perhaps, But you can also have a lot of extra mass, that's right at the front, making your weight distribution worse and increasing your inertia for cornering, for very very little gain...

 

In other words its not how big it is... its how you use it....

Best Gtr intercoolers I'm looking at upgrading my intercooler and want to get one of the best I can
what is the best flowing/cooling Gtr intercooler available in 100mm thickness
hypertune have a 680mm x 320mm x 100mm core 
plazmaman 600 x 300 x 100mm comp race series
greddy 710 x 300 x 100mm core
which would be best out of those 3 ? Any others that I have missed or that people have great results with ?
 




HPI-jap made
100mm and holding 1000horse

i considered your options but like jap stuff for my jap car

BTW it’s hybrid style fin configuration
(google a pic and you’ll see what i mean by hybrid)

Lol your car is on stands with its ass hanging out? "But it's running" ?  My car was pulled off the road to do a turbo swap. I'm doing the Fab work just like what's happening with Benjis car. WTF has the turbo got to do with it lol? 

Paul's box hasn't finished being setup just like yours so what's the deal?

No doubt when he takes it out you'll get plenty of time in his rear vision mirror waiting for boost to come on ?

That's if the 5s live long enough at 26psi. 

Then you will have to convert your car into a GTS4?

Back on topic, have you got any IAT data for the HPI?

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
