I think cutting may be involved? Gonz.

And spotted a r32 white skyline in canningvale with its rear wheels facing at right angles and parked backwards on a land island.

Gave him a honk :)

No cutting for the Nizpro FG cooler. XFT fitted mine cos I'm a lazy bugger but I don't see why you couldn't do it if you knew how to use screwdrivers & spanners (or failing that, a hammer).

What do you mean by stage 2 though? I thought they only did the FG in one size. Or are you talking about BA/F?

EDIT: Here's a link with fitting instructions/pictures of their whole kit for BA/F. A fair bit is the same for an FG anyway. Includes intercooler fitting. http://www.nizpro.com.au/download/Fitting_Instructions.doc

Massive thanks to IH8TOADS/Brendan for sorting me out in a pinch with a new (proper quality) hose clamp! Out with the old busted ass clamp:

In with the new!

He even gave me a silicon joiner to replace one of the crappy Ford ones, total champ :icon_ford::beerchug:

Broken clamp was the result of re-tightening cooler clamp after cleaning out the throttle body ...had about 30 thou worth of black soot crap in there. Idle is smoother now! Also recommend the boost solenoid lube if you haven't done it already, piss easy, even I am comfortable doing it :) Feels a bit more lively now at lower throttle.

Mike, my fave part is being able to play NES and SNES games on the thing! Can't beat some of the old games. Got SNES MKII on my phone, shichyeah! Beats the crap out of 99% of the market games. Almost literally! WHACK, CHOP! Dun dun dunnnn... SSLIIIICE *gurgle*

Be careful the wide clamps can cause the hose to blow off as they dont squeeze down in the area between the 2 raised sections on the body to clamp the hose firmly. I tried some of them but went back to thinner clamps after they blew off. But probably with the low power you are making it will be OK HAHA.

Forgive my lack of knowledge - Is it possible to put a screamer pipe on these cars?

I understand that because they have an internal wastegate, it's not possible. What's involved on changing it to an external wastegate and running a screamer off it?
