not vr4 that's for sure.

and it's ain't a GTR one..

Looks like a truck cooler of some sort.

no cars come with those as standard.

acutally, I can't think of ANY car apart from a GTR, EVO's, and JAP vr4's that comes with a FMIC with end tanks on either side.. and that cooler is from none of them.

What makes me think it's a truck cooler is the fact that the inlet and outlet are facing in towards the rest of the engine.. most that I've seen on trucks are like that.

i believe RX7 coolers have end tanks facing back

measurements. Hmmmmm.......

Well id say its about the same width as a GTR cooler, i dont know the width off the top of my head, but its prob another 100 - 150mm longer and twice as deep.

Hope this helps, im at work so i cant get the measurements right now. ill go home tonight and measure it up properly if need be.

Either way its pretty PHAT if ya ask me. Will the standard turbo be ok with this? i.e. is the cooler too big? ill prob up the boost to 12psi.

I hate to ruin your party, but I personally think it's off some kind of low boost application like maybe some kind of diesel or a truck. The reason I say that is that the tubes are very thin and restrictive and as such won't be much good for a performance car. If I was you I would give it back or chuck it out. These days you can get a chinese hybrid copy for under $300 so I'd just get one of those if you are on a budget.

BTW, definately not from a GTR/VR4/Evo/skyline/anything good.

DAMIT! The cooler was way too big, took off hte bumper bar and sat the cooler in there, it was up as far as it would go and it hung down that low it wasnt funny! Speedhumps and driveways would have been a no go. Still i cant complain, i got the cooler for free off a mate, so i guess its save the cash and get a GTR cooler for me. Ill put the cooler upfor sale in the for sale section if anyone wants it. $200

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By Duncan · Posted

      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.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
