hahahah i know my front bar is held on by by two screws and two zip ties takes me about 2 min's to pull it off :) but i doubt the front bar of this car has been taken off before.

have a compressor would have helped heaps benno. did you find some coilovers??? if you are looking at spending around the grand mark on them have a look at this first

do hks make bar and plate coolers..??

end tanks dont look like something hks would put out. but still looks good.. got a pic of the cooler cross over pipping. i like how greg made the crossovr return 2 pieces so u can lower it more and miss the bonnet and bring it closer to the battery to miss the fan blades...

nah its one piece :) fan had to be... "modified" for now.... although i am going to get 2 x thermal fans to replace it anyways.

i never had to cut an blades on none of the kits apart from 1 hybrid kit.. :)

yeah 2x thermos will be fine. autobarn had a sale for ice cool 14-18inch thermos

Hey matey, id personally stay away from thermo fans, they will never match the standard fan for cooling performance.

i personally prefer them. used 1x 14 or 16inch "ice cool" thermo on the RB20 sil due to space.. sits around 80degrees quite nicely.has no a/c condensor or anything obstructing the way as i made it as efficient as possible.

well the car sounds a bit like a truck at the moment from the fan trim, and i am worried about mis-alignment, and water pump issues down the track, so i would much rather have the thermals than have to purchase a new water pump.

also.

heres a pic with the bumper (which needs paint bad!)

  • 2 weeks later...
the stock shroud & clutch fan works heaps better than 2 thermos without shroud.

on my 33 i was having heating issues when i put the 2 thermo's on, and they were 2x14" ones too!

humm =\ my shroud doesnt fit my new radiator, so ive been running stock fan with no shroud. I dont have a digital temp readout, but needle has never moved from the dummy guage on the dash... i was planning on putting a couple of thermos in but now you've got me worried =\=\=\

I put a 16inch s-blade SPAL fan on my cefiro and it runs cool as. Put one of those on with a fan controller and it would be sweet as.

    • Hi...a little refresh. Is Nistune gonna be enough to run BoV? Or do i need some proper ECU? 
    • Yep that's pretty much what I want to see. Racecars that look and sound like the Group A but with newer tech underneath to make them faster and safer. I'm sure there's enough VK-to-VN commodore, E30 BMWs and Foxbody mustangs shells around to make up a decent number of cars with hopefully a couple of sierras, rx7 and R31s in there too. 
    • Contact Jessestreeter.com/Skevas Racing/JustJap for a new r34 rb gearbox or go a cd00# conversion. No point playing with unknown condition gearboxes.
    • Such a shame places like Amaroo Park have been redeveloped, smaller tracks always make for good racing. Cheers for sharing @PranK there's some good Lakeside video's too. Its so hard with older the cars as parts are so rare and everything was made for a particular chassis at that point in time. Even the V8 Supercar Blueprint era cars are all different between each chassis within a team as they learnt things and made improvements. The COTF cars between each Chassis builder is different too especially motor/oil systems/intakes. The Group A stuff is worth so much too especially chassis with good history. The only way to do it would be composite panels and similar engine drivelines to the original cars. Ford sierra running Focus RS driveline, Commodore running a short stroke LS/LT or a Falcon with coyote and a H Pattern dog box. Could use a standard ecu across all models with a Torque Map and DBW for parity which is not even used in Supercars currently. Hell a TCM is almost a full chassis car these days and the suspension is not even close to standard style in the front running cars.
