Installation Of Justjap Intercooler

[recce]

Hi guys! Just bought an intercooler from Justjap and will be putting on this week end. Just wondering if I need to trim the front Reinforcement bar? I need to know so that I can arrange an angle grinder to do the job. Any help will be appriciated. Cheers!

Shouldnt need to depending on your front bar you may need to trim that a bit.

Sweet! I know that I need to trim the front bumber bar and has arrange the tools for that. Thanks mate!

[sinistaGTR]

also you will need a hole saw to go under your washer bottle, may need to slight trim your fan blades but see how you go with that may not have too.

you only need to trim the reo when changing front bumper

if you're using the same bumoper, then its only the bumper itself that needs to be cut

good luck!

Just have a look at the new intercooler and it does not have a nipple that pick up the hose to the actuator. Where do you guys tap the hose that goes to the actuator?

Best to drill and tap into the new cooler piping. Just pick the closest point on the cooler pipe.

I installed my cooler myself a couple months back. It was a nightmare. But it was my first time. And having all the tools you need at hand would make things a lot simpler.

To drill the hole under the washer bottle you need a good quality hole saw. Ibought a cheap one and it just went blunt. It's tough metal. I ended up using the grinder to cut a square.

I run mine from the line to the fuel rail or whatever it is...

Not to sure but I had seen it done and just copied...

[Munkyb0y]

do you always have to saw a hole under the washer bottle?

ie, is it the only way thru for the piping?

[BAMR33]

Yes, you do have to trim the reo because there isn't 75mm clearance between the reo and the thermo

100% u will need to trim reo, dont worry bout the hose to the cold pipe, just run it to the vacuum hose coming off the actuator and T-piece it.

PM me if u have more questiuons

Well its been two weeks now and finally got my intercooler installed. The only problem I have got is that the fornt fog light does not fit. I have to take it out. Dont understand it as I have mounted as far in (close to the AC fan) as possible but still my fog light does not fit. Any clues?

I had to get rid of the fog lights too, just no room for them.
