r32 gtr radiator is still single row also not much thicker, flows a little better apparently (than gts).

r33 radiators (both) are a bit taller not sure if they will fit, they wouldnt fit in my 180 but r32 gtr one did (also r32 gts fits)

i reckon forget all these as they are not much of an upgrade anyway, maybe get an aftermarket one - you definately need a new radiator?

Grab one of the 40mm or 57mm PWR radiators in the group buy section :)

I will be when some money comes along... car could only do 4 laps of Sandown before I had to cool it off with the factory radiator

erm... 115 degrees!

Wow better check it out, i did 4 laps at Phillip Island and a break then 4 laps after that and it only gets to 84.

Don't know if you have an oil cooler or not but a while ago my Gtr heat up a bit me and Troy ( YLWGTR ) went through so much trouble finding out why at the end i take the radiator out sent it to Highway radiator to pull the top tank out, they found out i have up to 75% blockage. Only stupid thing that they did were when i got my radiator back they sprayed it all Black.

Get it check out Marcus.

It is one complete attached core but contains 2 rows.

 

Have a good look, either that or you've been ripped. :)

not sure of exact terminology in terms of row or core, however I know when you take the cap off the radiators and look in there, on both items there is one thick tube and i would expect it to be the same all the way to the bottom of the radiators. The r33 one is stock in a r33 for sure and 99% sure the other is gtr, but hey maybe there isnt any or much diff between r32 gts/gtr ones.

ofcourse they are one overall core unit but how are they 2 row??

Thanks for the warning, I know it's not good. I've got an oil cooler as well, and on the street the water temp never gets higher than 90.

Also note that Sunday was 30+ degrees at Sandown, and also PI affords much more cooling air to the radiator as it is faster :)

Will invest in a 40mm one when the funds allow!

Oh...  

 

Would have looked scary on the stock guage. :)

Stock gauges are crap! didn't actually move much past middle :confused:

I've got a Defi water temp gauge and it was beeping and flashing it's little brains out (and the temps matched the PFC temps)

      To add to that very useful summary, even in the race/rally r32 gtr I have good quality, new(ish) poly bushes everywhere because that is what rules require, and the handling is excellent. Of course, the car doesn't do many klm but I'd still expect poly bushes to last better in road use than sphericals (especially as I have a couple of klm of dirt road to stuff sphericals up) I would change the front upper arms to spherical if I was allowed to, because the poly bushes flog out often, but otherwise new bushes (and ball joints) and a good alignment can make a world of difference

      Any chance you can get a Nistune board installed instead and set the speed limit to whatever your tires can handle?

      ER34 AT ECU and HKS SLD pins

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Hi all, I need to get this HKS SLD attached to my stock ECU because I've now got the German autobahn and faster European circuits to contend with.  The car is a manual 2dr ER34 with an AT ECU and I've realised the AT ECU has two pins for speed sensor signals: Pin 29: Vehicle speed sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 2) Pin *58: Output shaft rotation sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 1) - *RB25DET A/T model only Before I go butchering this harness, is anyone sure of which pin is the correct one for signal adjustment? The attached document from HKS indicates pin 29 but I found this situation mentioned in the following thread on a different forum (R34 GTT Auto Trans Speed Cut Problem | Zerotohundred) mentioning pin 58 needing to be altered by member zephuros, albeit it seems to be for an RSM-GP and the info appears to be old.  R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-2.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-3.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-1.pdf HKS SLD Vehicle Pin out P59-P70 ER34-pages.pdf

      Slimline sub on the rear parcel shelf is doable. Pioneer TS-WX140DA is only 70mm high.

      People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.
