Hi,

Ive finally decided FMIC is the only way.. Much to my disappointment.

Is it true the above can be installed without hacking reinforcement? ill sacrifice the front bumper is necessary (ie replace if need be)...

Reason is, it is imperative the car can be returned to factory spec without evidence of a hack job.

Any others to speak of ? What about the stealth kits from JustJap?

Anyone who genuinely knows its much appreciated, id hate to go buy one and be informed its necessary to perform the above. As it simply wont happen...

Cheers in advance.

Matt

Search with "return flow" or similar

There are dozens of topics, some of which even have pics/diagrams of installs and the success and/or issues encountered.

There is almost one every fortnight

I searched it didnt answer the question (perhaps i didnt search specifically as you have recommended, sorry mate my bad the crystal ball is out of order, return flow? means shit to me i wouldnt even know to attempt it) thus i wouldnt bother asking. Make sense?

Regardless is it some major hardship to ignore the thread if its uninteresting. Whose balls am i breaking exactly?

Some arent here to out do each other with technical prowess. How much hasnt been covered already on maybe half a dozen cars? ....

no one is focring you to change, but its certainly a good idea

many have fitted the blitz return pipe style cooler kit without hacking etc

as r31nismoid has posted, do a search on the blitz kit

from memory dezz in victoria fitted one, he might be able to offer advice if you can't find any info

The blitz kit requires the reo bar to be cut.

[Finchy33]

Yep.

I had to cut the lower horizontal section about 15mm deep, 200mm long. Each side.

ARC is the only kit that won't require reo mods.

I've got Blitz return flow and Yer you have to cut the front bar and the reo.....for $500 more you can get ARC...you choose

[SLY-25T]

i have the justjap return flow and as the others, had to cut the reo.

i dont really see you being able to get away with a front mount without having to cut the reo.

if you want to make sure you can return it to standard, buy a spare reo from a wrecking line and save it for when its needed.

You don't have to cut the whole cross member of the reo! although it will allow for much better airflow to your cooler.

You do how ever have to notch out a section at each end of your reo (basically where the end tanks are) the curvature of the reo is to harsh and will hit your end tanks before reaching the mount points. (Speaking from a Series 1 r33 point of view)

If you really don't want to touch a thing on your reo then the blitz is not going to work.. As already mentioned the ARC will but i don't think its actually made anymore?!?! and justjap sell a cheapy which im sure is perfectly fine unless your chasing mega power.

Hey there, Ive owned 4 Blitz LM coolers........... You just need to trim the Left side and the Right Side......... Also where are you geting your blitz LM from and how much? i might be intrested........... one for my friend, let me know straight away.

[gotRICE?]

This is mine. The MINIMUM amount that needs to be cut to fit a Blitz LM to a S2 R33.

Reason i emphasize Minimum, is this:

It took hours to get it to fit that tight. Makes it less obvious. Painted black, 99% of people wouldnt even notice/know.

R31 knows what hes talking about and gives great advice. No need to speak like that. He is right, i have posted these pics at least 4 times now.

"return flow" just means that the air returns back to the stock SMIC piping more or less.

[PM-R33]

Very neat job. Your right, you couldn't even notice that.
