doridori32,

What's you'r problem, | PRESA | is trying to get help with his car here and you'r jibbering on about absolute sh!t. you'r last post is total off topic and no one care's about you'r short shift's so stop talking about them.  

| PRESA |  

Don't worrie about him, do what you think is best I my self would recommend a front mount cooler to get thoes inlet temps down.

Thanks, I appreciate the help from you and predator.

Thats the kind of info I look forward to hearing on the forums.

Not sh!t like, do this to you car and if you don't your a moron cos I did it and my names doridori32 and I'm a drop kick.

There is a reason japanese products are costly and one being they are the complete kit ready for DIY bolt on and secondly performance wise.

You can guarantee the japs have tested these coolers before they sell it with the price tag they do, I haven't heard one person complain about the value for money on a jap made coolers.

It's not about the brand name but the quality, I don't have any actual figures on quality of custom made coolers and from my mates that have tested custom to jap brands, they recommend the jap brands and so do there tuners when the results prove on the dyno.

doridori32, for you I suggest you join the gaymatchmaker.com.au site and maybe you can provide some better advice there.

Considering you have **** all money to spend, i recomended you the cheapest option.

You seem to be brain washed with 'Insert Brand Name Item' is the better than anything else theory!!

Its your $$ so do what you want, but for the cost x performance you pay for the Greedy cooler to what extra performance it will give you especially if you are only going for a high flowed turbo, is nothing. If you looked at what makes up the design of a cooler, it is nothing special when compared to other items.

Remember not to get hung up on the poser wank factor of telling your mates you have a 'Greedy' cooler :D

i think this thread has gone way out of control... but here is my 2cents...

i have a greddy intercooler and it does a very good job, keeps the temp down. I have the v-spl cooler from nengun and it is cheaper than the r-spl cooler which is for high hp cars. I think a front mount intercooler is a necessary change if you plan to run any more than 10psi

if you run 12-13psi through a std cooler with a high flow you will be losing power as the air will be too hot as the cooler wont be able to cope. especially if you have your foot down for a prolonged time.

run 12-13psi through a decent front mount and you will feel the difference and it will show on a dyno. a heap of power will be unleashed.

maybe you should think about getting all these mods (fmic, high flow, pfc, fuel pump) all done at once ...

Yeh Hybrids are cheap, and i know a few cars running them and they are very good, so id say they are a great buy... but keep your eyes peeled, the IC itself may very well be cheap, but by the time its installed it could very well cost more then the Jap kits as some places want $500-70 for cooler piping.

Happy shopping:)

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
