I'm not sure Scott..

I'll ask if I can give you his number. The coolers are 600x300x70 (i think) so they are a fair size.

When i rang and asked I said "I want that whole in my front bar taken up with a whole intercooler" he goes "that's what everyone wants so that's what I do"

:D

i did some recent cooler shopping, heres what i found:

600x300x75 "Universal" intercooler

$770 @ rolin auto imports

$660 @ STZ Automotive

exact same cooler

tho the coolers dont look to flash and the way they were treated at one of the mentioned workshops was pretty poorly... bent fins everywhere... scratches and all that.

i bought a 600x275x55 from a guy on performance forums.

Aftermarket cooler inlet: 25deg cruise 39deg on full boost

stocko cooler inlet: 41deg cruise 70+deg on fullboost

my car still feels slow as poo tho.. and its been tuned

201hp@wheels... about 150rwkw

605ft.lb of torque = 820Nm of torque... i think thats half decent

mods:

r32 silver top rb20det 5spd

EMS dual sport

K'n'N pod

CAI

r32 highflowed turbo (steel wheels)

600x275x55 cooler

3" turbo back exhaust

10psi boost

550hp fuel pump

i have worked out what i need to do to boost control (instruction manuals ARE useful) but i have to adjust a number.. that is a Pulse Width Modulator frequency.. that in turn some how controls the EMS boost solenoid

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
