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.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
