Gtr Intercooler Or Blitz Lm

[desiredlog]

I am debating with my mechanic which Intercooler i should run on my RB26 coupe skyline. It is running a single turbo (TD06SH-25G 10CM2) And He say's to leave the stock intercooler off a R33 GT-R ( Racepace ) And that putting on a aftermarket intercooler can sometimes turn everything backwards (result wise)

Now i know the GT-R intercooler i have now is slightly heavy, But i can get a cheap Blitz LM kit to suit my car. They are both tube and fin.

Which one do you think will drop my intake temps more???? And what are the Pro's and Con's of a GT-R Intercooler (R33)

Much appreciated for further help

Hold on, Just let me clarify, Racepace is your mechanic?

If so, and he is advising you to do something, just do it. There are SO many people on SAU with racepace motors/cars/etc that are all very happy with him.

i don't understand, you have a gtr cooler fitted already or not?

if its fitted already just measure manifold intake temps and that will tell you if you should spend money on the upgrade.

stock r33 gtr cooler is fine for up to about 350rwkw, so should fit the bill for you quite comfortably

will a stock gtr cooler fit a gtst?

yep it will.. just needa make brackets and mount it. im running a 32 gtr cooler in mine works perfect and i painted it black, at night looks like a stocker on rims

Well i basically want to compare them Temperature wise, Which one would cool the air better at the end of the tank. Flow would be similar id assume as the design is quite the same

Thanks anyway i think ill stick with the standard Intercooler for now as id be wasting my money buying a Blitz LM!

IMO you would be wasting your money going to a Blitz LM. The stock GTR ones are fine and flow/cool enough as is unless they are gunked up from oil etc etc. In that case if your so worried, id get your GTR one completely cleaned and flow tested and she will be as good as new.
