Good morning all,

I've been doing some maintenance on my r33 and reckon I can make a convention cross flow intercooler fit custom return piping, utilising half my existing return flow piping.

Has anyone used Mishimoto intercoolers before there particularly the m-line or s-line and how this compares to say a Hdi.

Worth noting used in P98 setup hi teens boost 250-300kw range.

I've used an Mishimoto 600x300x65 mm years ago on my R33 GTR it wasn't any better then the stock cooler. That was later upgraded to a 600x300x100mm which worked ok, car made 410awkws. Pretty much as what you would expect from an cheap ebay cooler, and it was only half the price back then.

Plan was to use something like this feeding the hotside to the top left.

I know 180deg bends aren't ideal but surely one bending over 300mm (my current return flow intercooler is 300mm high and hotside runs underneath without clearance issues)

Is better flowing than the sharp turn standard returns flows run.

If you're after a cheap intercooler that is somewhat decent for the price point, those HDi GT2 cores aren't bad, just that link you sent is of a CT2? 

Haha I was like "what's a CT2 as well"

I think he meant to write GT2 as the stamp on the intercooler on top in one of the pics.

I’m running a cheap cooler and it’s doing it’s job for over 400kw. Think it set me back $200. 

On e85? Cooler matters a bit more for 98

Coolers matter much more than a bit on 98.

Old setup I was making 372kW at the rear treads on a Mainline dyno w/ 1.7bar of boost going through a dim sum bokchoy eBay special FMIC with intake temps of 65+ degrees Celsius however that was on E85.

Would be knock city on 98RON with those intake temperatures.

Intake temps on a hot summers day get up around 50 and that’s on 98 going for a retune in the next couple weeks going to push for 500kw on pump. 
intake temps are always low with mine has great flow and even the water doesn’t go much passed 95 on the track

...and you live in New Zealand don't you ? Define a hot summers day. Ambient temps are quite a lot lower there on average.

? Very lucky, you have quite ideal forced induction weather over there. I consider 30deg C quite a cool, moderate day where I am. Even places like Melbourne and Adelaide go well past 40 C these days in summer.

So by the way where are you located Pattey21 ?

In the ACT. Pretty unfriendly with imports with regards to inspections

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
