R32 Greddy VSPL Intercooler

[R32Abuser]

Hi, I've just bought a Greddy V-Spl cooler (yet to fit it), and was just wondering a few things...

1. Is a pod filter needed (i.e. cannot use the stock airbox) for one of these on a 32 Gts-t?

2. Do u need to cut a hole in the arch (wheel) to accomodate the piping?

3. Is it a simple bolt on, or is a bit of stuffing around need to bolt these things up.?

4. Is a different Battery needed for this cooler (to make way for the piping)?

5. How do these things go as far as radiator flow?

6. How do these rate against the stock cooler?

7. What boost is anyone running with one of these on an RB20DET?

Any help would be appreciated...

Cheers David

1. No standard airbox is fine.

2. Hole in the wheel arch???

3. It's a straight bolt on and only very minor modifications are needed to fit it.

4. All depends on the size of your current battery as they come from Jap land with heaps of different styles and sizes.

5. Your radiator will still get ample air flow.

6. Flow much better than the standard cooler.

7. If the only mod you have/will have is a cooler and say exhaust, about 12 psi would be ample. If you would like to run more boost, it is recommended that you upgrade your fuel system and either remap your standard ECU or get some form of aftermarket ECU.

cheers dude!

No worries.

after getting ecu re- mapped and bigger fuel pump what sort of boost could be run ?

[sly14]

???

I wouldnt run any more through the stock turbo.

mate my turbo is fully sik ! and my skyline is sicker its fully sik mate ~

after getting ecu re- mapped and bigger fuel pump what sort of boost could be run ?

With those mods the car and the standard turbo will easily withstand 1bar(about 15psi) of boost

[GR33DY]

make sure u have all of the support mods like said above..

get exhaust- prefferably turbo back, i.e dump pipe, front pipe and cat back..

get a panel or pod filter... a fuel pump is not needed if ur running abt 12 psi..

however, a tune is defenite... Get a piggy back ecu if u can afford it like an SAFC or emanage, or even get ur stock ECU remapped...

its all in the tune.. it does not mean the more psi u run, the more power u will achieve..

hope that helps..

Hi, Does anyone know if the R34 VSPL Intercooler kit its going to interfere with the standard snorkel and after looking at the pics of what comes in the kit, do I need any additional piping made up or does it just use the existing piping?

[sly14]

hey dude ill get my mate to come on and tell ya he is getting one for his on friday and might have an idea.

[sly14]

pritty sure that it is straight bolt up as it is for my mates 32 with a few minor modds like front bar will need trimming but ill ask my mate and get back 2 you.

[choyda]

Thanks heaps. Pics if possible of what comes in the kit would be good (if it isnt what is shown on www.nengun.com). I have a cold airbox that uses the factory snorkel at the moment and wouldnt want make it a waste when i get the cooler.

also try this site my mate is getting his on friday and i know he got it for a good price rmsmotorparts.com.au and they should be able to tell you and pref i wouldnt wast my time and just buy a pod.
