YAY New Cooler Is In


Recommended Posts

Finially got the cooler installed after it sat in my room for 2 weeks!!!

Thanks heapes to gerald for the work, was a bit of farkin around coz the original piping needed to go through 1 of the chassis rails, which is a no no so we had to modify it!

Havent had a chance to trash it as yet, getting dynoed tomorrow and everything checked then the trashing will begin!

Can feel the better throttle response at just 7psi boost, so much better response and acceleration.

Stainless Steel ceramic coated inside and out piping so it stays nice and cool.

Hopefully its not just mainly a 'placebo' effect, would be good to see the before and after dyno results (you did get a before one, right? :P ).

Have you noticed your car naturally boosting slightly higher now?

well i just got back from race pace getting the s-afc retuned!

I got 183kw@wheels at 0.9 bar boost and 165kw@wheels at just 0.5 bar boost!!

I am farkin rapped, the cooler worked beautifully, previously i got 155kw@wheels at 0.8 bar with stock cooler.

I will post the dyno graph tonight!

Excellent! So that's around a 25rwkw increase at the same boost level from a cooler + SAFC! Awesome. It's clutch+turbo changing time I think if you plan to go any higher although for me ~185rwkw would be just right I think.

So it's just this plus a full exhaust and pod right? How are you controlling the boost? Bleed valve or EBC?

To compare, I've got a cat back 3.5" and a pod, stock boost + cooler and am getting 148rwkw. Looks like cooler + SAFC (if required) is next!

I got full exhaust and custom dump with rest of exhaust 2!

I am controlling boost with a shitty turbosmart 2 stage controller, they said it would get a bit more with a ebc since it holds the boost so much better in all weather conditions, the bleeds holding capabilities in different weather conditions change.

OMG that's excellent. Congrats INASNT! Do you have a EBC? or a bleed valve? How much was piping?

piping is stainless steel 2.5 inch with ceramic coating inside and out and cost be $600 which is basically a straight fit.

And when i went to race pace there was this crazy farkin race boat in the garage which had a twin turbo 383 chev in it and was pulling 1150hp!!:eek:

    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
