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.

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?

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.

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
