Hey, im just thinking about getting a new intercooler to my r33 as soon as i get it pretty much, not much a fan of stock intercoolers, as you can always improve on things like that. anyways, what sort of intercooler should i be after? are hybrid coolers any good ? what sizes should i be getting also.

What sort of boost can i run on stock everything minus the fmic? safely.

cheers

For the money outlaied for the hybrid coolers they are brilliant........From what you have said you don't plan on building a 1000+ hp machine so the hybrid coolers will do the job nicely.

I would also suggest getting an exhaust before you start upping the boost.......once you have pod and pipe and cooler, run UP TO 1 bar MAX.......your turbo has ceramic wheel so anything higher may cause problems.

Thanks for that, the car already has an exhaust on it, i just need to get a decent pod on it with a cai.

with the pod cooler do you mean pipe the cooler line into the pod? sorry, i own a v8 and have forgotten alot about turbo's and there works.

any pics to show me :cheers:

just get a pod filter, with a box around it and a pipe running from the front bar up to the filter to get more air rushed to it...

i have a hybrid front mount and for $1000 it was perfect, worth every cent, nengun has the HKS type R coolers for like 1400-1500 but if u dont have any major plans for this ten just get a hybrid kit locally and that is great,

with cai, pod, exhaust, cooler, 10psi and a dyno tune u would be getting around 170-180rwkw (i have same mods and have gotten 173rwkw)

dont go over 12-13 with the stock turbo coz as said the ceramic wheel wont like it...

    • I once hit my knee on an exhaust on my sisters Suzuki Sierra after she drove it her *normal* way. My knee looked like porridge for weeks. Bec and my daughters never go near this car. I can see one of my dogs losing an ear though. 🤔
    • Nice, love a good GTS-t.  IMHO the factory body kit with the 'aero' front bumper is perfect. Can't improve on it unless it's a GT-R. But it looks like you changed it to the normal bumper?
    • Easy solution to both of those. Put a split bit of garden hose on each one. Attractive and practical!
    • So I guess the next thing to do will be to discuss whether to create a new section of the forums to hold the library (boo hiss?), somewhat undoing the recent tidy up, or if there is a bolt on wiki module for Invision? (I must profess ignorance as to what has been done, what it might cost, etc. I have only briefly googled and seen discussion on adding it.) Or is a wiki even the best way to do what I'm talking about? It possibly isn't. Given that we're trying to re-display forum content, it probably needs to be presented as forum content in forum format, and a wiki would probably struggle with that. A wiki might still be the best way to do some other things, so I'll keep the idea simmering if we don't use it here. Back to the library as "part of the forums". Would we do a single new library? Or put a library thread in each section? Pluses and minuses for each of these, surely. Would we do as I originally suggested, and make the first post in the library be the total of the library, with any reply posts just being the inputs and suggestions I originally posited? Or would we allow posts to accumulate one after the other, each containing additions to the library? Maybe the first post is still an index or something. It's all sounding horribly more manual and messy than my original brain fart. But I hope there's some other good ideas floating around - because every time I come up with a new one of my own I immediately see problems with it.  
    • Tips look fine to me......but Boring stuff: Legalities - Vehicle standards notes that exhausts cannot extend to a point where they could cause injury Scary stuff: Mrs cuts open her shin putting stuff in the boot (ensure you have some bandaids and shiny jewellery handy)
