Hey guys

Have an rb20det and im about to install a high flowed r33 turbo and have supporting mods to make 200rwkw, just wondering what sort of power the stock 32 gts-t cooler can handle or whether it would be a good idea to upgrade to a 34 gt-t side mount untill i save up for a decent front mount, on a budget at the moment.

If anyone is running the r34 cooler on their 32 or can help me out with info that would be great, like how much bigger the gt-t side mount is compared to the gts-t side mount.

Cheers

the differences are its bigger,newer and much better airflow and it can handle more power the the 32, its good for 200-210 KATW my suggestion to u would be to go with the 34 SMIC. until u can get a FMIC

hope this helps.

yeh but once you go for a quick squirt around the block youre going to have massive heat soak - ie back to square one.

only reason to put on a 34smic is if your gettin it for free.. or close - otherwise stick to ur factory smic.. run low boost, dont thrash it around too much, save up and get a fmic.

I had a r34 sidemount on my r32 gtst and it worked great, although I only had approx 165rwkW I didnt want to go to the hassle of cutting the front bar etc and risking getting canaried.

But they are not a direct fit (like they are in an r33 gtst). You will need to get the outlet moved to face the other way. I think it cost me about $180 for the modification and for it to be fitted. RECustoms down here in Melbourne did it, and I know they have done a few others.

I guess if you were looking to take it to the track etc you're better off going full FMIC. I didnt notice any heat soak with (relatively) normal street driving. Maybe a water spray kit would help.

    • Interesting.  Great info. thank you.  Give a few days to get that name plate.  I have a busy life most weeks.  I will be in touch.
    • Strange your posting about this being an issue. Move the harness or change your wheels or run more camber etc. Have the thing not touch the thing so it doesn't destroy the thing.  Short answer, no. Slightly longer answer, the factory fuel gauge is measuring resistance. You need to wire in the FPG fuel level sender into the original factory fuel level sender wiring.  I drew you a picture to explain this one The factory strainer is quite long, reaching down into the bottom of the tank. Safe bet your aftermarket fuel pump has a little baby sized strainer that probably doesn't even point down towards the bottom of the thank.  Solution, move the pump lower down in the tank, or fit a longer strainer, or do both. I did both, I've run my tank down to 5L remaining and the car still drove fine.   
    • S2/3 GT-R is the same as S2 GTS-t The SRS airbags module in under the centre console. The S1/S1.5 GTS-t and S1 GT-R had the module built into the steering wheel. FWIW, I have a S3 GT-R wheel in my S2 GTS-t shit box. Same airbag plug, airbag light goes on then off, meaning all systems are go. S3 GT-R has red stitching, that's about it.
    • Dumb question, but why would it matter if the wheel came off a car with hicas or not?
    • Hey to anyone that reads this, long time lurker first time posting, sorry if it’s been answered before but I’ve been looking for nearly a year now for answers. ive got a 25det neo in an r32 that works awesome when it works (made 500whp on 21psi) but works 45% of the time, 1st issue there’s a harness that runs under the passengers side front fender that my tire keeps rubbing through and one wire seems to power the fuel pump even though I’ve done the relay “mod” some people like to call it, and when it does rub through it kills the car, yes next time I’m with the car I want to take the fender off and try tuck the harness well out of the way but I’d also like to try and by pass this mysterious wire as well lol, also wouldn’t mind getting power from the alternator as I’ve read it supplies the pump with 13v ? But no idea where to run the power wire too. 2nd issue, when replacing my fuel pump and fuel hanger I managed to break the factory fuel level sender leaving me with no fuel gauge, I’d like to buy the fpg fuel level sender for r32/s13 but the plug it comes with confuses me, I’ve got a detschwerks x1 fuel hanger which has light + pump - level + pump + and a ground, I’m no auto sparky but I’m wondering if I can cut the plug off the fuel level sender and wire the negative to the pump negative and wire the positive to the level positive to get a fuel gauge back ?🥴 3rd and final issue, the reason I want a fuel gauge is because whenever it’s below half a tank, it fuel starves like crazy and runs like a bag of shit even without doing a pull or sloshing the fuel round in the tank, I’d also like to fix this but have no idea what’s causing it, I’ve got a dw420 and a dead head fuel setup meaning the fuel is regulated before it gets to the engine, my only theory is that the return line is to close to the pickup on the pump and when it’s at half a tank the return line is causing the pump to cavitate enough to cause fuel pressure issues, that or the pump isn’t low enough in the tank which I would find strange considering I can’t find a single thing online about it, also if ya wondering how I figured out it happens at half a tank without a fuel gauge, I waited until it started happening and went and filled up and the car took exactly 30 litres every time I tested it, if ya managed to read through this mess I appreciate that and any recommendations , cheers
