Sup people,

My Skyline Series II

Just fitted my Hrbrid cooler onto my car the boys from QSR are great thanks Mohammad :lol:, performance wise you can't really tell any difference but at least I know on a hot day my car will still be running at full boost 12psi, I have completed my breathing upgrades on my car my next step is manifold and modify my internals along with a new ECU to handle the fuel ratio etc. stock ECU just doesn't cut it :lol:

Hi R33Zilla

just a couple of questions on the intercooler that you have installed. is this custom piping or is it a kit? if it's a kit, is it the Hybrid GT spec ones?

also, is the trimming of fan blade and removal of A/C fan (the thermo fan in front of the radiator) required?

and is the piping aluminium?

i want to get one of these kits too but i don't really want to cut the engine fan blade or remove the a/c fan, especially when summer's coming up soon

cheers

To answer you question NO nothing has to be removed like engine fan blade or removing the a/c fan and its the Hybrid GT spec cooler full kit + piping for rb25det you can find this coolers at a great price from my friend Ray [FLYN] from ns.com say I reffered you

the only thing you have to do is drill a 3" diameter hole on the chassis so you can feed the pipe through easy stuff

i don't know yet, i might just get it through your mate in the end, i've just checked his thread and the pricing does look competitive, especially for a quality tube and fin cooler.

but before that there's a few other things i'm doing to the car now so i won't do it for another month or so.

btw, i've seen one of those gt spec kits for an s15

i was surprised how much it's improved over the old hybrids. the construction definitely looks more solid and well done

they're also lighter too

workmanship on these coolers are excellent, even if you compare these to the big dollar jap coolers

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
