flawless-paint Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) looking for a radiator and an intercooler .... anyone got any ideas or maybee to sell me ? maybe something like this ? radiator size :between 460mm wide 380mm tall 110mm thick... http://www.ebay.com....d#ht_1754wt_970 but for intercooler might have to get custom made ... haven't been able to find anything that fits between 675mm wide 375mm tall and 110mm thick Edited November 18, 2012 by flawless-paint Quote
kickn5k Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) Why do you need a 110mm thick intercooler? We've got a 76mm one on a 4agte that makes 300rwkw. Just need to look for a good quality core. Â Edited November 18, 2012 by kickn5k Quote
flawless-paint Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Posted November 18, 2012 Why do you need a 110mm thick intercooler? We've g na thats what I've got to play with.... anything between the bar and the rad support and between the rad support and motor intercooler : 675mm wide 375mm tall and 110mm thick radiator : 460mm wide 380mm tall 110mm thick Quote

oh what a nissan feeling! Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 s13 radiator fits fine, as long as you don't mind cutting the radiator support panel to suit. Â Quote
flawless-paint Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) engineer told me i can't chop into the radiator support but was thinking of buying this .... http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/56mm-custom-alloy-radiator-Toyota-Corolla-Levin-SR5-TE22-TE27-KE25-KE30-1966-81-/110922371965?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item19d37d137d#ht_2021wt_673 Bit small ?

flawless-paint Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Posted November 18, 2012 s13 radiator fits fine, as long as you don't mind cutting the radiator support panel to suit. Â Hmm wish i shaved thAt lump off the firewall like yours Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) I wish i remembered to mention it before you did the paint! Â thats a shame with the engineer, they usually couldnt care less about the rad support. Â Anything that will fit in the standard hole is going to be on the small side, but might still do the trick i guess. Edited November 18, 2012 by oh what a nissan feeling! Quote
flawless-paint Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Posted November 18, 2012 The rad support is flimsy as shit anyway . No structural support at all .. But up to him not me .... Should be right ........ Hope so . Quote
BUZ440 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 I hit my firewall with a hammer to make it fit for both the 30 and mk1 cortina, Â I have a 76mm thick intercooler and Holden 3 core radiator with 16inch thermo and temp switch I was going to use in the cortina but won't suit, Â They both had brackets made to fit, Â If your interested flick me a pm Quote
