Aren't you forgetting something Steve...
what happens when you find that the straps that hold the tank are rusted.

Hi,

job done, thanks for all advises

i let the wire a little bit longer, you never know
cutting is possible everytime



there is a M8 thread next the batterie (thanks toyota), i blanked it to get a good connection



you can clearly see nothing even the wire is in a tube, i walked behind the relais box (relocated the box ~1cm to get enough space) through a unused rubber into the fender



into the engine bay in direction old battery pole



and pressed the connection, here i also deciced a longer wire as to much could change in the engine bay



next week i should get the black diamond brakes, perfect as there is a bigger toyota event on weekend
and i also pick up the repaired blitz hybrid turbo

Hi,

the black diamond brakes are installed, where the hell are my brakes









in front of that the surface is still black you see that i doesn't tested them yet but i hope they work well

Hi,

yesterday i saw that my ic-prerad is leaking
looks like the time has come to build a uprated custom radiator, i just have one alu-welder as a friend hopefully he can help me

Hi,

here we have the damapde radiator

overview



here we see good clasps



here one that leak soon



and here one that is damaged



i think the age is the reason

i now have a masterplan for the upgrade IC and a alu-welder so i just need a radiator core and we can start the job

Hi,

today i received the upgrade intercooler front radiator, now i just have to weld mountings on him and build a air channel, it is a 3row 2flow one with 50mm depth against, 38mm 2row 2flow of the OEM one





if everthing goes right i become my car ready next week
here the company who build the radiator

Hi,

the project is on the road again, the upgrade IC + shroud is mounted















the water becomes a little warm but after all i doesn't have a infrared temp.meter but possible i can get one

Hi,

small subjective report, the performance is constant up to the may rpm. like a cool day in spring or fall

but nothing is for free, i have ~5°C higher oil temp. against the oem pre-rad, so the oil can raise up to ~100°C whe i drive hard

looks like the next mod will be a street under panel, to get more air out of the engine bay

I'm surprised that the temps are higher given that you've fitted a shroud to guide the air through the radiator matrix. I'm not sure how much benefit you will get from fitting a floor to the engine bay? You really want lower pressure behind the rad so that the hot air is encouraged to 'escape'. The floor might actually cause a pressure rise in the engine bay i.e. the opposite of what you intended! Experimentation of course should reveal the truth

Hi Don,

i'am now using a c-one underpanel, in front of many gravel drives and races in the past



but now i drive just on street any more

you see it is not really open for air to escape, i possible can get here more out

greetz

Ah, so you already had the C-One undertray fitted? So it would worth removing it to see what difference it makes to your temperatures

Hi,

yes, and i'am also noesy what different it makes, but first i need a good idea of what i build instead the panel
