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

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
