yeh radiator.

no thats for a G35 auto. you can run an external trans into the loop with the in built trans. hence no need for a thermostat, as the radiator will warm up the oil and keep it at running temp a lot quicker than an isolated trans cooler.

im getting Race Radiators to make mine custome. 3 way pass, in built trans cooler. and holds about 2 litres more.

will be ditching the trans cooler if this one seems good enough.

How much for the custom job?

install it yourself. its not that hard

scott? :rolleyes: lol yeh will probably have too.

Even still, it's not a bad price if you don't want an external oil cooler.

Actually one of these might fit a bit tidier in the engine bay: http://www.makcotran...m/708-4739.html

yh it isnt. but a mishimoto one will cost you 400 delivered.

I couldn't find any with the trans sooler. They all said "Suit Auto" but then you'd ask them if they had the trans cooler and they'd say that they dont.

yeh i didnt go to the extent of pm'ing them so you may be right

theres nothing wrong with having the bottom tank cut and have the trans cooler loop installed in one that doesnt have it from the factory. any radiator place should be able to do it

this is true, but for the total cost of getting theradiator, plus a tank installed you may aswell get a custom one.

if you guys are interested in radiators from RaceRadiators, I can get them to keep the design when they do mine? perhaps they'll deliver.

Yeah I'm interested in the Race Radiators thing, keep us posted. $700 isn't bad if the Koyo is going to cost Jase $600.

That said I'll probably still run past Tonkins and see what they say though.

when cam comes on he'll be able to tell you all about it. he already has one!

What about running a small cooler such as:

or

and just plumbing it before the radiator as previously suggested?

What size cooler are you guys running and where do you put it?

im running a PWR one for a Ford V8. imo those coolers are too small' and to be honest, i dont think the fluid will spend enough time in the cooler to physically cool.

Do you have a link? Where did you mount yours Aaron?

    • Donut tried them out, they were fine as long as the bolt or nut wasn’t very tight 
    • It is a very complicated plastic tank. Sitting between the rear seats and the rear subframe. Requires a siphon venturi pump in the hat to suck the fuel from the passenger side to the driver side of the tank. The answer is probably prepping the tank very carefully to eliminate all fuel fumes, drilling any cracks to stop propagation, then plastic weld. I don't really see any other solution here. 
    • Does anyone know when your oil drops viscosity, if it is an issue? I imagine with tuned cars they will be overfueling more compared to a stock standard car and will thin out over time. 
    • anyone ever used these ? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/186214260439?_skw=socket+set&itmmeta=01JEG3TKV388ZXGP8N7CHNCQ45&hash=item2b5b3c1ed7:g:mhAAAOSwwB9lf~Xm&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAAwHoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKkJwJeiNMm%2FsStacz%2BhjzBowaFnbNCowwe08vVGrW0FbesCs%2Flw%2FQYjDQLjKsuKvgysWT9%2F4b9AZUX3qLP5RDfFhtD8DxufvqBbyZrQAQXuG3h8%2BxxqhWhH8fIfU84eA9W7VIpxDNw9MWj9BdfkkMasYhcqOjTrcKwLyD3ftzZbaZb2Us7%2FFR1Q2kcT68ZYRU77%2F%2BtRr1qBS27BXxh%2FjWBQxhWyUcLlEFIb%2BITZPIKwxQ%3D%3D|tkp%3ABlBMUOy96oP0ZA   I believe the idea being, the rods push back around the shape of whatever nut you put in there. Sounds pretty handy to just need to carry 1x socket in the car for 'most sizes'  but, theory vs reality, anyone tried them?
    • I'm not that familiar with R33 tanks. Plastic? Up behind the rear seat between the towers? Or under the boot floor like a normal car? It's the battery that's up between the towers isn't it? So, plastic tanks. Well, um. The obvious reco is plastic welding, which you'd only look at asking someone who's really good at to contemplate trying. The fuel contamination and grot is probably going to make it quite difficult though. Whether plastic or steel - the end of the crack will want to be drilled before any welding or sealing is done. Otherwise it will just continue to wander along until something bad happens. Steel tank? The obvious answer is drain, wash, purge with inert gas and drill the crack end and weld/braze/silver solder/whatever the guys who do that to fuel tanks recommend. I had a crack/hole/leak in the bottom of a Commodore tank (oe was it my ALFA? - can't remember) that I slammed some gorilla snot onto and it never leaked again. It worked surprisingly well. Or, it's time to fab a new tank.
