Intercooler, Radiator and Oil cooler

Archbish · September 24, 2007, 08:47:08 PM

So... I\'m looking to get an IC, Rad and Oil cooler for the S3 project. Obviously I\'d LOVE a PWR setup, but the delivery costs make it somewhat untenable. Sooooo, does anyone know of a company that could make remarkably similar items so I can get the whole lot from one place rather than getting them seperately?

I got an uprated rad from a company in hong kong, seems to be ok. I think they would be able to do the IC and the rad. Not sure just how many companies make 1st gen coolers.

As for the oil cooler you need to source a TII one. The things are huge compared to the after market coolers. Alot of people on Rx7club will only use them because they have a built in thermostat too.

Thanks Shaun - What I\'m looking to do is have an intercooler at the front, with the oilcooler underneath, with a full size Rad behind. So the TII cooler should be OK, but I\'m not sure the stock shaped rad would be OK, and I need to find the cooler to go on top...

As shaun says, i would definately get a good used TII oil cooler. Some of the aftermarket ones wont take the high oil pressure of the Rotary.

If you get both the i/c and rad custom made you will be looking at big money 600 and up at a guess. I would see whats out there and make it fit, but thats me, i\'m tight!

I picked a near new cossie ali rad 2 inches thick with 2 new electric fans on it for Â£70 on ebay.

Hi OJ,
Would you consider a front mount?

But I don\'t know what price to sell it for though?

My rad cost Â£205 inc postage, they do intercoolers too. Its 3in thick and dimensions as gen 1&2.

Christopher · September 26, 2007, 02:05:26 PM

Yeah I am selling it.

Antnicuk - Howâ€™s the blue FB you bought off me going?

As for plans. It\'s booked in at RX motors for a rebuild and half bridge port, fitting my noz kit and if I sell my front mount. I will be replacing it with a 4 row ready for when I get my new turbo.
Plus in the future TII brakes and a LSD.
