Spiderman Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Hey Everyone I been thinking for while of getting a FMIC, but now that ive starting looking into it theres alot of different sizes and core dimensions etc... I have a series 1 GTS-T M-SPEC will the FMIC fit without much mods to the front bar? Just wanted to know what other people have put on and dimensions please.. my Budget is about $2000 installed i dont want to blow my budget. Im also getting the exhaust done dump pipe and high flow cat any recomendations on that would be great also! Thanks!

JimX Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 You have to cut the bar for any decent sized fmic. I haven't done it myself but the workshop that installed the fmic did so without too many dramas. I don't think it's that hard. Dump pipe and cat - get one of each from BATMBL! See the car parts trading forum. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/30089-fmic/#findComment-611765 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RedLineGTR Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 most common size is 600x300 or 600x400 with the width of the cooler usally starts from any like 55mm but something decent would be at least 65mm or 75mm with thickness.

Spiderman Posted December 19, 2003 Author Share Posted December 19, 2003 what's an R32 GTR cooler's dimensions? Thanx Jimx and Redline GTR thats a great help Dj894 reminded me -- is it workth getting a GTR Intercooler? its cheaper and i dont want to mod my car much more Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/30089-fmic/#findComment-612666 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ984 Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 I'm thinking of putting a GTR cooler on mine... I figure i only wanna run around 12-14PSI (GTR runs that) and it should virtually bolt straight on no worries... Plus I only wanna take the car to a max of around 200RWKW (for the time being) so the GTR cooler should do the trick...

nitemare5 Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 apparently the GTR cooler is good for around 250rwkw Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/30089-fmic/#findComment-612923 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airzone Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 Is it easy to get pipework made up for a GTR intercooler (to fit into a GTST that is)? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/30089-fmic/#findComment-613058 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitemare5 Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 Dimensions i think are around 600x300x70 (but don't quote me on that. Piping work is easy, just take it an exhaust place and they'll get it done for you for around $300-$400.

Cubes Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 If you don't want to cut the front bar yet still get good performance out of the IC use a Bar and plate. Mine fits perfectly behind the front bar. Its rated at its optimum of 580hp with a 1.5psi pressure drop. From memory its got 60-63mm inlet/outlet 2.5", 600 x 300 x 90. I think..

GTRman1992 Posted December 20, 2003 Share Posted December 20, 2003 GTR Core is 600x300x70 PWR on the Gold Coast have a chart to calculate intercooler size for power output. The GTR core is good for around 400Hp to 450Hp. A core 610x285x94 is good for 600Hp.
