Definitely less pokey. AC is fine since it was regassed just before I bought the car. Even with the hdi intercooler the heat really takes the oomph out of the engine. The difference was very discernible when we had the hot days early last week and the cooler last couple of days.

The stock ecu drops timing out heavily on hot days and ramps up the fuel, its what Nissan had to do to save an engine that's being thrashed on a hot day. If you can lower the intake temp you wont notice it as much.

So was the bigger intercooler suppose to help with the hot weather?

with the last 6-7 day's we have had in Sydney it would not matter what IC you had....you would still be see a considerable change in drivability!.....I'm just glad I no longer have my standard one!

You can try a cooling spray on the IC. Jaycar have a kit.

On M35's the intake air temp sensor is in the AFM. You could put ice in the intercooler and the ECU would still see the same temperature. Ice in the airbox would work...

Last time I checked dry ice made CO2... not combustible- but cold! So it would prob make a good combustion extinguisher! :thumbsup:

Maybe one of those massive dry ice chamber/intercoolers that the dyno cars/drag cars run!!!

Do they sell a Temperature Cut defender...?:rolleyes:

In the R33 manualon page EN13 it shows where the temp sensor is. It looks like it is in the T/B. I could be wrong, but if this is so a spray unit on the fmic would help in the C34s.

most definitely would work me thinks.....and probably quite well!

    • I guess the main advantage is that they start out hard and incompressible, so you can throw them away immediately, rather than waiting until they've done 50k km or something?
    • Has anyone used the billet half-moons that are available to replace the rubber ones at the back of RB cam covers ?  Going to change out my cam cover seals as they are weeping oil and its now driving me nuts. Any advantage to be found ?
    • My muffler was fully customised to suit the car. He mailed me the end caps, I marked up the pipe locations (4 pipes in a single muffler) and he sent it back all welded. Certainly more expensive than a mass produced generic size, but that's hardly surprising. My R32 Exhaust has a Magnaflow muffler in it, if I need generic mufflers then they're usually a safe bet. I've got the Vibrant clamps on the intercooler pipes, just because they're nicer to use than the bolt together ones and not as expensive as a real Wiggins clamp.
    • Yeah. Nah. A grain of sand will take out a ceramic turbine that is doing 100000rpm.
    • Yes, it was checked with the roller rockers installed using a LS7 lifter that had been converted to a solid lifter with a dummy spring at 0 lash with a stock length pushrod. With the Johnson lifters longer pushrods were needed which are now 7.700" and 110 wall. Long thiccbois. People much more knowledgeable than I am are doing the measuring!
