Link To Hdi Intercooler Kit Group Buy, M35

[rosella]

Nice, must admit I was a bit jealous once it started going together...

Did we get the fan direction right?

Sure did. 'Cause I can't hear it kick in, not like the factory one. I was lucky to see it just stop spinning yesterday morning before going to work.

I just need to organise that waterproof connection you showed me.

That's excellent mate, smarter than we look eh? Maybe one weekend soon,you can just drop in & we'll do the plug. Only need to pull the grille back out to get at it, less than half an hours work, and you'll be on your way.

Got mine done yesterday. Just curious - the fan i seems to be working fine...but with the air con on and when idle at the lights the car seems to feel like its idling a bit rough?

Any suggestions?

The sway bar group buy isnt even over yet and I'm looking at more bits...

Just wondering if anyone is interested in a new group buy for these? Seems like 10 is the magic number.

I'm keen to help out to get this sorted.

HDI intercoolers are about $770 + $50 shipping on ebay, so any saving would be worthwhile.

Are HDI the only people doing kits? Not worth talking to PWR or similar?

The other kit is the Blitz cooler kit from Just Jap at about $900.....the HDI ones are better!.....not to mention the price being better. PWR will custom make one for you but unless your planning on running 500AWKW's it's not really worth it as we have proved how well the HDI one flow's.

What power are people using these things to ?

I'm about 500hp at the crank on BP98 atm.......Aaron on his next run will be about 550-570hp at the crank on E85.....this is with the VQ25.....both of us run the HDI FMIC....GT2!......neither of us have had flow problems with it....should be good for at least 600hp.

i second that!

the other reason why its much better is because theres a minimal pressure loss which means your turbo wont work as hard to fill up the huge core, as it would a blitz

I enquired with PWR, but the cost was too high although their coolers are pretty good.

Ryan, if you want an HDi cooler, I can organise it for you at the GB price as I have for others since the GB.

PM me know if/when you want to go ahead

GT2 = yes

HDi clamps = If you are referring to these http://hybrid-power.com/HDI%20CLAMP/HDI%20CLAMP.html, yes there is one in the kit for joining the piping behind the washer bottle. The rest are used on the silicon joiners and are basically these http://www.norma.net.au/norma-gbs.html

I'll check shipping to NZ, PM me your address so I can get an accurate quote.

Cam not trying to knock those HDI silicone joiner clamps.. but i found the reason why mine kept blowing off is because the band is too large area wise.... also the HDI ones cant be tightened as much or the bolt tightening them snaps. and obviously not tightening enough is not good.. the thread also strips..

reccomend using generic SS ones with a thinner band.. havnt had problems since

EDIT: that and 20 psi

No stress mate, just giving them the heads up as to which clamps are in the kit.

As an aside, not one of my clamps have come off nor loose.

I did strip one though but only because it couldn't really fit around the joiner to grab enough thread .

[Sunkist]

yeh dont know why they are JUST arent big enough.. but even Cihan said and scott mentioned too that the bands are a little to wide..

[iamhe77]

I only found that the one that connects to the BOV intake pipe was juuuuust big enough, but have had no issues with any clamps coming off... then again, I haven't heard of anyone else having a prob with them either

[Sunkist]

lol Craigs did once..

but im the only one using them running 20+ psi lol

i had a problem with the drivers side part of the cooler clamp..

BUT.. none the less, a Great product! blowing a cooler hose turns the car off so it doesnt damage anything anyway

[zei20l]

i had problems when installing the FMIC kit. but none now since. but ill be changing them as they are a PITA. the worm gear ones are better IMO. just get good quality ones

Awesome news, cheers.

Search showed up the Blitz kit, but seemed like it was a pain to fit and had no benefit over the HDI. PWR was just someone I was curious about. Figured the cost would be high but didnt know if they were good enough to make it worthwhile.

Will go the HDI shortly! Thanks!

Looks like the thermo fans are still available... http://cgi.ebay.com.au/12-INCH-LOW-PROFILE-HIGH-PERFORMANCE-THERMO-FAN-/120697595024?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c1a232490#ht_1556wt_689

They're still available with the wiring kit, but looking at this thread seems like the wiring kit isn't required.

If I have just given everyone the wrong link please let me know...

[iamhe77]

Nope, that link is good.. and no, you don't need the wiring kit
