Hi all, have had a quick search but with little to no luck.

I'm just after the diameter of the inlet and outlet of the cooler core so I can grab some more silicone joiners before I head off and grab some more tomorrow.

Cheers, Steve.

Pretty confident it's 80mm not 3 inch, I know the engine end is 80mm. Japan don't use imperial at all afaik.

3 inch will stretch over 80mm but it's a pain in the arse. Better to just get the correct size.

Silicone will help it slip off too. I want to use Tarzan grip on mine to stop it leaking at 32+

80mm is easy enough to get these days.

Use hair spray. It wont go anywhere

Ive also stretched 3" onto the intercooler, but sounds right that it would be a typical jap 80mm (3 1/4")

Cos I'm picky, the Japanese do use bsp so yu r rong. Take that .

Why change what works, if it wasn't for the bloody US it would probably be a world pipe standard.

Pretty sure they had laws against using imperial, as did Australia.

Um.....BSP is Imperial. The very definition of Imperial. It's just different Imperial to the NPT Imperial. As long as we're using "Imperial" to mean "based on units which are based on the length of some old codger's thumb".

BSP has become metricised, but the sizes are still exactly the same old inch bullshit they always were.

    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.  
    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
