Yeah don't see it being a problem.

Done and done. I might actually take some measurement tonight and make sure a 25 ROW will fit where I want it (drivers side duct). If not I will go a 19 row aswell.

Fs: Genuine New Rb N1 Water Pump!

Hahah good analogy.

Sorry but don't agree with you what so ever.

I think that is a very stupid thing to say. The guy isn't a F1 driver, no. However I'd like to see a number of people on this forum try and handle the car's that he drives. I have watched pretty much every episode of Top Gear made and know damn well that he can drive. Given how many so called experts on these forums think they are awesome drivers they couldn't hold a candle up to Clarkson.

Works out to be under 70km a week lol. I would believe it if it was a R33 N1 GTR or something along those lines. Not a GTS.

2m I believe. Should be more than enough to be able to mount it in traditional locations.

New dash fitted or some one got a bit to happy winding back the speedo to a completely unrealistic number. No way in hell.

On my car or one of the boys from the group buy most likely as we were the first to have them. I got them made for a group buy a few months ago with PSI Parts. His are just painted black I believe. Still looks good though, same effect.

Took My Father-In-Law For A Drive In My R34

NA section brings the lols -
Ok for dimensions I believe they are as follows: 19 ROW - 146mm x 330mm x 50mm 25 ROW - 190mm x 330mm x 50mm Width dimension of 330mm includes the tabs. From what I have seen they are basically the same width and depth as other brands in similar rows. For example the larger Grex kit I looked at was 233mm x 300mm x 50mm (may not have included tabs for width).

Blasphemy!! Exactly. Hence why I said it is taken slightly out of context. Obviously he thinks it's a great car. However the point of the DVD was not to find what car can set the best lap time.

Breaking up the kits will throw the group buy prices out. If we however get the numbers needed for the group buy to go ahead, then I can find out if they also do kits minus certain parts (not sure if they do however). So at this stage kits only. Will get dimensions of the cores as that is something I was meaning to look into aswell.

Those vids are pretty old now. Given that the second video is from his "Thriler" DVD it makes sense in that context if you have seen the whole dvd.

+1 Get a snorkel.

One other thing I will add is a review that was done on this kit by a guy called Dan.

Hey guys I have been wanting to do this group buy for a while. Was originally planning to do it last year but with a couple of the other group buys running money was getting very tight. Obviously from the success of running the Hel group buys for their brake and clutch line kits I had a lot of dealings with the guys at Hel. Through our talks I found out they were putting together an oil cooler kit and one that would suit Nissan's. This was something I had been meaning to put on my car for a while however most good ones (Trust, PWR, HKS) were close to $800-$1000+ for the kits I wanted. I had seem some of the cheaper Chinese/Taiwanese type kits in real life on mate's cars and a lot had problems with leaking fittings, sandwich plates not mounting properly or leaking and overall just very average looking quality. Sure maybe a lot of them worked ok but it was an area that I didn't really want problems with (friend nearly ruined a motor from an oil cooler line breaking and loosing all the oil). So I started looking into all the components of the kit offered by Hel and instantly loved it! Was the exact setup that I wanted at half the price! Not to mention it looked fantastic. Like with anything I started doing my research. Here is all the info: CORE The actual core it self is manufactured by a Swedish company called SETRAB. The core is made from an alloy aluminium brazed into a one piece assembely that is coated black and therefore doesn't draw to much attention yet at the same time looks very sleek. The cores are pressure tested to withstand over 300PSI. From what I have read these cores are fantastic and are ment to be up there with the best. Two cores will be available for the group buy, a 19 ROW and a 25 ROW. The 25 ROW is recommended for vehicles with larger HP outputs or that see proper track use or that are in hot climates. BRACKETS AND LINES The brackets that mount the core are by Hel and made of aluminium powdercoated black with an ingraved Hel logo. From the core Hel lines are used with their stealth black fittings. SANDWICH PLATE The lines then go to a UK branded Mocal thermostatic sandwich plate. This is a key factor that a lot of cheap oil cooler kits do not have and for a street driven car is essential. If you run a car on the street without a thermostatic sandwhich plate it will take forever (or in some cases never) for your oil to reach operating temperature. Basically works the same way as a thermostat for your coolant. The thermostat opens up at a good temperature of 80 degrees. VEHICLES Obviously like with most oil cooler kits, the kit is semi universal. You can mount it where you want using the brakets provided. The main part that is specific is the sandwich plate made for a RB block. Just double check if you have something different as I believe SR's might be the same aswell. An interesting little fact that I came across in my research: For every 10 degrees of excessive heat, oil life is halved. One thing the kit doesn't come with is a filter relocation kit. This is something that not every one wants and therefore if you wanted one you can just buy one seperately and use it with the kit. So the part every one wants to hear, the price. Basically the combination adds up to the equivalent of a top dollar oil cooler kit that costs well over $1000. Hel told me themselves that there wouldn't be a kit under $1000 that would better it and after reading everything, I believe them. Five kits will be needed for the group buy to go ahead at a price of: 19 ROW - $450 Delivered Australia wide 25 ROW - $490 Delivered Australia wide As you can see, bargain! One difference with this group buy compared to some of the others is that once orders have been sent from the UK, they will get sent directly to you instead of me sending them all out. This will save time and also means every one gets some proper documentation should a warranty issue ever occur (wasn't really an issue with the Hel lines group buys). So I will keep the group buy open for the next month untill the 18th of April or until spots have been filled. Once the group buy is closed I will need payment within one week. The money will then get transferred to Hel in the UK and will take around 2-3 weeks to get all the kits ready and then around a week freight. Once again I will be doing a DIY on fitment with plenty of pictures. Any furthur questions feel free to ask. There is a lot of information and I may have missed something.

You are like a good novel. Always make me feel wanting to know more... -
Quite a lot actually. Ever since being in the BMW/Euro scene and looking at forums from the US etc it's amazing how "cheap" a lot of Jap wheels are in comparison to the Euro wheels. Make sense though. If you have a $200,000USD Porsche, $4000 wheels just aint up to par lol.

Hahaha this thread is halarious. Next highly personel question. Why are you on your learners when you seem to be of mature age? (Is that the correct way to say it without offending some one? Gotta be politically correct nowadays.)
