Have done one FMIC on cheffstageas series 2 over the last 12 hours (probably took about 5ish).... A fair while but we were happy with it as its out first ever FMIC install. Personally I think we took a bit to much of a "cut and shut" approach as Adam (chefstagea) currently has no washer bottle as it was in the way and he decided to cut the sucker out... still in one piece though so we shall relocate it soon :( After driving with the FMIC installed the car feels more responsive and the induction noise has increased :domokun:

To the point:

Can those that have done a FMIC install please post up photos or share links to their piping from plenum to the driver side end tank on the intercooler.

I'm aware that I will probably be cutting a hole in the vertical under the battery but I believe the washerbottle may also get in the way so Id like some photos to see how pople have positioned bends to dodge the washer bottle.

As for the passenger side thats easy.... 1 pipe from end tank to standard side mount pipes and it all done.

PS I have looked at the Intercooler thread and its pics but I cant see whats going on where the washer bottle is.

Thanks in advance,

chris

Chris, sorry mate, but we don't need three new threads about intercooler installs, and we already have an old thread (please do a search) with a whole bunch of users posting pictures of various FMIC and DMIC installs in Stageas.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Interesting that it has 2 to the USB stick. Are the ones to the USB stick different? Or labelled anything at all? Telstra 4G is Band 28 is the long range one you want, it's 700mHz. I'm trying to do some reading on the Cel-Fi stuff, but I can't find any decent info online that makes me feel comfortable being able to work out the sort of antennas we could get away to swapping it over to. The antennas I'm starting to do some stuff with at work, are a transparent antenna. They're designed to stick onto the window. Which means you wouldn't even have the antenna outside the car. Volkswagen have just started using the exact same types of antennas on some of their new cars (And from the same antenna manufacturer). But, RF stuff is a bit of a dark art some days, and getting it wrong in your car could make for a terrible waste of money trying to swap antennas :S

      What do you do with all the spares?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm not going to lie Duncan, Saturday and Sunday were pretty rough days. The sort of work I was doing would previously have ended up with me spending about an hour and a half chatting with Neil. Firstly about something I had a question about, and then both of us rambling off on tangents.  I think how Neil did things, and his attitude to getting it done is helping me in part to get this stuff done. Then I can actually do the things I enjoy more easily

      ER, HR bonnet question

      By RBjay34 · Posted

      Talked to another R34 GT-T owner, he said bonnet of his car once fell and slammed from full height because of strong wind at a car show and nothing was damaged or broken, so I guess I'm just overthinking some things but yeah, just making sure I'm not damaging the car anyhow cause wanna keep it for a long time.

      ER, HR bonnet question

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I would say 100% that it doesn't matter at all. I have an Al bonnet and I drop it sometimes, push it others. Have done so for 25 years and there's no way to tell that either has caused any problems (because there are no problems).

      yeah, a black 4 door HR, stock AT RB20DE. Was a pretty good daily summer car, it was kept in a garage during winter but previous owner was fighting rust so most of the car was covered with rust undercoating, the trunk, floorpan, it started to rust underneath so I thought it would be better to find other chassis that was taken care better and do rust preventions myself, at least I would know where keep my attention at. Plans are simple, enjoy the car as much as I can, mostly on summer of course, winter here is long and not kind to 90s JDM, I wanna keep it mostly stock like, I'm not a huge fan of GT-R look or any body kits so gonna keep it as metal as possible haha, something more balanced look wise and yeah, work on performance, I was thinking about RB25DET but 20DET actually feels fun, as long as it's reliable I think I might keep it.
