Can anyone tell me if the Nismo oil cooler has a thermostat? [mention=137648]baicai[/mention] do you have one fitted to yours? I'm wondering if there is any issue with over cooling the oil in normal driving situations.

Nismo oil cooler does not have a thermostat, no issue with over cooling, only issue is you have to warm up the car for at least 5 mins before driving.

What happens if you just start it and drive it? Takes to long to come up to temperate you think?

I am not a big fan of letting cars warm up by having them sit there and idle. I also can not be stuffed with it either. If i cant just start it up and drive it then id rather buy a hks unit with the thermostat and an extra 2 rows on the oil cooler itself.

Any cooler regardless of brand that doesn't have a heat exchanger like the stock one has the potential to overcool the oil if it doesn't have a thermostat. Some people just cover the cooler in Winter. On the other hand any car can be driven away from cold (I never idle cars for any length of time if I can help it) so long as you don't cane them before they get up to optimum operating temperature. Driving them is the quickest way to achieve this.

Would it be a waste to use oil cooler for a street car? I can imagine it being really useful in the track as you're doing wot most times... doh...

Yep, not required for Street use. I even have mine covered at the track unless it's a hot day.

Thought i had posted here but it appears not.... the Headrest on the interior has since been fixed as has the horn button been straightened haha, was a quick snap when instaling. Still restoring the foot rest.

Is that also the NISMO pedal kit? Looks like you have installed them over the top of the standard rubber pedals?  I have a set that I am yet to install and am wondering if this is the correct way.

Yep that's them, you drill into the metal for the clutch and brake pedal leave the rubber for the accelerator. Since they were not specifically designed for the 32. Alternatively you could buy a set of 34 pedals to suit.

      Short shifter r34

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hi all   what short shifter do you use on your skykine r34?   my synchronous does have a problem and i was getting huge delay and grinding sound between 2nd and 3rd, did put shockproof red heavy stuff and it is great now/ no issues   would in your view short shifter screw this up?   people seems to suggest/ use cube short shifter and there is standard and premium. Seen review of premium as much better and less play. Thoughts?

      R34 oil and timing belt change

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, there's a bit of a density and friability difference between pebbles and any of those other things. Silicone will definitely float in oil and so will be mobile enough to move around. Although, again, if it is upstream of the filter it really shouldn't go any further. I would only ever worry about silicone when it is in places downstream of the filter. Upstream of the pickup is a whole 'nother matter. We've all seen what that does. I have seen the most abominable crap settled out in industrial gearboxes, trunnion lube systems and the like, without any sign that any of it has touched anything in the machine. Just chilling in the bottom, waiting for the inevitable operator error that causes the whole machine to need to be dismantled for repairs.

      I have seen enough fire and brimstone from TSBs about roloc disks causing spun bearings that foreign object contamination is top of mind for me. For sufficiently large particles you might be right but usually it’s a distribution of debris and some of the larger particles can also break down and shed bits. If local shops report RTV contamination in a turbo is enough to wreck them I’m taking zero chances if I can help it.
