Need some ideas.
Gonna uprate my intercooler but really cant see a natural path for the pipes. Well to be more specific the inlet. The gap between the top of the rad and the front crash structure or slam panel is only about 2 in max. The only feasable way i can think of is to try and re mount the rad a bit lower. This in its self looks a nitemare. So here i am need some more ideas.
The car is a 93 type r in standard trim but not opposed to cuting it up a bit or a lot
cheers scott:rolleyes:

Hi Scott,

Will be doing mine in the next few weeks, pop round for a look and some ideas of what not to do if you want.

In the picture above the aircon rad is inbetween the intercooler and water rad, i decide to leave this out and run without the aircon as i never used it anyway, it allows for better airflow without it too.

This is the final product, i have lots of pics if you want i can email them to you as they are too big to post, they might be able to help you out.

Hope this helps

So you stood the stock rad up. the thought had crossed my mind but was unsure. what sort of water temps do you get. any pics would be great sdminus@yahoo.co.uk:cool
thanks scott

Donato

Water temps are around 85-90 for normal running, it generally never gets above 95 in traffic the fans kick in at 93 or 94 and its soon back down to the mid 80\'s.

I will sort out the pics and send them to your email.

Cheers

Donato
