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?

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)

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
