Hi,

I've got a S2 GTST and i cant use the hybrid type cooler piping kits because i've got a washer bottle where i need to cut out the 3" hole.

I want to get my left end tank (if looking front on with the car) on my cooler modified and have a 90 degree looking bend coming right off the end tank to go behind the cooler so that i can connect other piping. Similiar to that of a Blitz cooler but have the pipe go behind not under the cooler.

Also, i dont want to buy another cooler so that's why i want it modded.

So who would be the best person, tradesman to go and see?? i have no idea if an exhaust place is better than an aluminuim fabricator etc? Opinions?

Thanks

Steve

remove the wheel arch n cut a hole ..if u unscrew the washer bottle , u will c it doesnt interfer with the cooler pipes at all. u only have to relocate a small braket holding a few electrical things to anotehr screw 4 cm back..

Hi Guys,

thanks for your input so far....

have a look at the following pics (the first two is from the hybrid cooler installation manual (step 1 and 2) and the other is a pic of my car).

So...

are you saying my washer bottle can stay where it is without interfering with the piping?? cuz i know the S1 dont have the washer bottle there and i havent seen where S2 2 door's washer bottles are located.

Also, are S2 2 doors the same as that of a sedan.. cuz i got a sedan.

However, getting back on the original topic... would a radiator place would be the best option to get the cooler end tanks modified?

Hi,

Doesnt your piping hit gutters etc... my car isnt lowered and it still hits even with care.

Also, if i move the washer bottle, where would the best location be cause i dont believe it can move back. it would have to move to the other side of the car... unless i get a totally different bottle... any suggestions?

    • from an old insurance company i was with (Budget Direct) I had someone roll back into me at the lights got them to pull over. Got a picture of thier licence with address, had a dash cam video and, thier phone number. But only had 3rd party on the shitbox i was driving. insurance did nothing, cops wouldn't do anything due to the value of the damage (under $3000) so i just had to suck it up and go to U Pull It. 
    • Small Update on the Exhaust Situation A 200-cell cat was a bit too expensive for now, so I had the exhaust shop fabricate a new exhaust from the cat to the rear and an exhaust tip. I went this route to avoid cutting into the original exhaust and keep it intact. It’s essentially straight-piped, and the sound is noticeably different. The exhaust tip came with a silencer, so if it gets too loud, I can easily install it to tone things down slightly. Right now, the car bangs and pops like crazy -- which I personally love. In the future, I might add a resonator or a 200-cell cat, as niZmO_Man suggested, but for now, I’m really happy with how it turned out.  
    • And that's a massive problem, because deadshits will deadshit and give you false details. At least in these days of mobile cameraphones, it is trivial to take photos of any ID they are carrying at the same time as the 300 photo extensive documentation of the state of the vehicles that I recommend even for minor incidents. And you get photos of the person's face, any visible tatoos, etc etc, while you're at it. Then you try to avoid mentioning that you're fully capable of making explosives of various power levels and will wreck their shit if you are forced to hunt them down.
    • No, I don't remember the exact reasoning (was 20 years ago!) but the cops didn't end up supplying it to us either. Actually my mother went through a similar thing recently where she was hit when stationary, flustered and didn't get address (she got plate details, name, phone and insurance company, but not address). Person who hit her blocked her number and their insurance company (naturally) would not provide any details. Her insurance company also required her to pay the at fault premium because she did not have the address, cops did not help as it is a minor civil matter (they said their only course was if the other driver had left the scene of the accident without providing any details). She only ended up getting that refunded because they happened to be insured with Suncorp and she was with APIA so same company owners. For some reason the address is critical in insurance companies recovering money from the at fault party
    • If you're driving something like an R32 through to R34, no chance of meeting Euro4. Euro4 came out in 2006, and car manufacturers back then were complaining how hard it would be to meet those regulations. Not a chance a vehicle 10 years earlier is going to be compliant.
