100Mm Intercooler On 34 Gtr

[sinistaGTR]

For those 34GTR owners out there with 100mm thick coolers, just wondering do they just fit in or are you required to juts trim the front bar slightly.

What's the reason for going such a thick cooler will block a lot of airflow to the radiator

[sinistaGTR]

Well there's not many other options about for the 34 that isn't 100mm

So you can jump on your Racepace high horse and tell him he does not need it.

So you did work out it was causing your high temps?

Just wondering is all.

Im using a 100mm Nismo z-tune core and the bar had to be trimmed a little. The tags that hold in the mesh had to go, as well as a few notches to accomodate the welds. This didnt worry me though as I was intending on getting a nismo front bar eventually anyway.

Regarding engine temps, they aren't a problem provided you use a GOOD core like a Nismo or something else high end. Today in traffic I saw 44 degrees as the air intake temp on the MFD. Engine temp will sit around thermostat 68-70 and oil at 80-82. Sitting in traffic stationary with the aircon on will see the water temps rise up to 80ish which is still very safe.

Dam I miss the cool climate of Victoria, and seeing air temps of 10-11 degrees!
