Piping kit arrived in good condition and I installed it on friday the day I got it. I'm not sure but the kit may seem like it is more suited to R33 maybe? I had to drill out the mounting brackets to pull the intercooler in further so that the front reinforcement bumper would fit over, sits a bit lower than i expected over the thermo fan and a bit close to the top radiator hose. Also something that I realised with these kits is that they seem to pick up a bit of heat through there trip to the intake piping so i think they would benefit greatly from heat wrapping.

Just a bit of constructive critism. If anyone has any question in installing kits onto an R32 feel free to ask.

Cheers,

Hey mate, I'm interested in the full kit for my R33.

Just making sure, is it $530 delivered, even to Perth?

Also, would you be able to send me one of those installation guides so I can have a look? I've pmed you my email.

Just got my car 2 weeks ago and haven't really pulled bits off a car before; would it be recommended that I get a pro to install it for me or is it simple enough for me to give it a go?

yummy I dont have cooler instock.. Just jap has the cooler you need 600 x 300 x 76 mm with 3" inlet/outlet... YEs 350 for the piping delivered anywhere in aust..

Baz: When I installed the kit I lined up everything first before I installed it. Mark it all out, I planned everything before I did the chopping. This way I knew the kit would go together nicely.. But it did take be 10+ hrs to do it. So did you mark everything out first? did ou plan everything, made sure you cut the hole in the right spot so the piping would be as far away from the fan as possible etc... Maybe posting up some pics of your work? :cheers:

yummy: I found it easy to do, others have too.. The hardest thing is the get the hole cut in the right spot.. But I can send you a pic of mine so it can be easier for you... Also I mounted the cooler first so I knew it would be in dead center..

So basically will the kit fit pretty much any intercooler that is 600x300x76?

If so would i be able to reserve one kit? I'll be able to pay you in a couple weeks hopefully when i get the money cos i've blown it on other stuff for my car...

I haven't seen this thread before but i bought a D1 kit off ebay that looks exactly like this one, all in can say is its prob one of the best kits i've seen for the price, my mate has a hybrid kit and this one is probably just as good if not better... very impressed!

have u got a pic of the cooler itself that u sell, because im lookin' at getting a kit for my r33. also before i purchase can someone send instructions to install it to [email protected]

so i can see what is involved, coz i ahve no idea how to fit it into the series 2 front bar . thanks

hey mate, I'll send you the manual via email if I can.. I have been having trouble with my email :)... They manual will should you what to do..

I would recommend getting the cooler from just jap $5 cheaper and it is just the same as mine.. Besides I have no cooler left.. You need the 600 x 300 x 76 with 3" inlet outlet.

I sent you the link to the manual.. did you get that?... The piping is polished aluminum not chromed... I can get coolers but to much hassel as they still around for a long time.

    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
