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:

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
