I only have 2 pics so far, both on Facebook so I'm sorry if they come up as red xs

Haven't plumbed it in yet as I ran out of patience for working in the rain

[PM-R33]

Hahaha nice. Is that a rubber band on the bottom.....

[Cassbo]

No, it's a cable tie. The cable tie has absolutely no practical use where it is except to put more vibrations through the cooler core

[PM-R33]

Lol good stuff.

[Force Fed]

Anyone got pics of this or so fitted to an R33 GTR?

Phil, I may have to talk to you about one of these soon.... or something like that.

[JustinP]

Hey Phil - have you fitted your yet?

If so did you document the install with pictures by any chance? I might try and fit mine in the next couple of weeks, would be great to find out about any of the pitfalls first

Nah not fitted yet man.

Anyone fit this onto a r32 Gtr?? My mechanic says it physically imposable to fit the thermostat sandwich plate... It is the correct thread but just does not fit. Any ideas? Oh and I think my kit was for a 33gtr I have a 32 with 33 engine. Iv been told they are the same... Any ideas? Cheers

[PM-R33]

All the Nissan's basically run the same sandwhich plate.

No idea why he would say it doesn't fit? How does it not fit?

[SIR-JD]

He said it is just a matter of space to fit it in...

[Cassbo]

He might not be able to stick his arms past the intake plenum

[SIR-JD]

Haha I would not expect that is the reason... He is a very well known and respected mechanic in melb.

[SIR-JD]

Any idea guys? Cheers

[robbo_rb180]

could be there is not enough room for the fittings and also putting the filter back on. i put a justjap kit on a mates gtr and it was all good but that kit comes with a relocator for the filter.

don't the gtrs come with a thermostat in the factory oil cooler?

phil- are HEL still sending out the black hose & fittings?

[PM-R33]

Yeah they are. I gave them four guys addresses a little while back to send the fittings out to. Might shoot him an email to see if the other ones are ready.

[a20089]

Yep looking forward to those fittings promised.

[blags]

Decided I would fit mine today, what a failure that was.

I was doing well until I realised that the Trust/Greddy relocate kit had different size hoses and fitting to our HEL kit. I currently have my car pulled apart with an oil cooler mounted but nothing attached to it. Should be a fun day tomorrow trying to see what my options are with new fittings or hose.

[Force Fed]

Reducer?

[blags]

I just ran it without oil filter relocator kit, all fitting up, ready for track day Saturday
