Buy expensive cry once, buy cheap cry daily

Honestly, I was. However Someone had this one so I thought why not, 350 bucks.

that being said, i'm dubious of the plazaman ones. The one pictured on their site doesn't look like it'd fit on the mounts.

Probably cools the intake charge and doesn't leak... :P

I think the factory one does that as well.

So calling the phone number on their website and asking them if the GTR intercooler was a bolt up job never crossed your mind?

but isn't the factory FMIC limited to 300rwkw and looses efficiency after that?

I only started worrying about their fit after having issues with this one today. By the time i'd got back in and fnished packing everything up it was after 4, so i figured i'd give them a call in the morning... :yucky:

My Hybrid one does a better job...

Good for you and your car

If the car doesn't go to the track or drag strip when do you get the chance to use those 300+ killawasps?

Just out of curiosity, do drag strips allow intercooler sprays?

Straight from the andra manual

4.6.1 Intercoolers

Must be securely mounted with all hoses securely clamped. No restriction,
apart from location, on air-to-air units. Air-to-liquid are limited to water
and/or water ice ONLY and must be sealed to prevent fluid dropping
on to track surface. Dry ice permitted on its own but housing must be
vented to atmosphere to prevent pressurizing of system. Intercoolers
must be located outside of the driver’s compartment or contained in a
commercially manufactured ballistic containment device and fitted with
a relief valve / burst panel vented outside the driver’s compartment to the
atmosphere.

I try to use it every time I drive the GTR.

It's fairly easy to do especially those long M1 on-ramps we have here on the GC

    • Ohh even easier.   Go dial up 700rpm on the hand controller. Rip off the TPS plug, wait till the idle drops and then adjust the IACV screw so it's just a tad below the target on the hand controller (say 650rpm), plug the TPS back in and idle will climb back to target. Done.
    • Hey Sleepergm, I love your inlet piping, do u mind sharing who did the work, please? cheers, Ian
    • Yeah, you want the IACV to be running at around 30 "units", variously called "steps" or "duty cycle" depending on the person. That gives it room to go lower if need be and higher ditto.
    • Ah right that makes sense.
    • The RPM is just a target, the ECU will adjust things to try and hit that target but it's by no means guaranteed. If the IACV duty cycle is 0 or something like that and it's actually closing up fully then the idle is as low as it can physically go without reducing ignition timing. The problem can be something like the cold start valve in the IACV not closing fully, worn throttle shaft seals, torn rubber diaphragm in the brake booster allowing unmetered air, etc.
