Had one in my previous car. I had to exit to the pit when the oil got over 110 degree celsius. So now it is two -> more rounds on the track

 

Yes but one larger cooler would have half the failure points.

 

Yes it would But it is easier to install two smaller and have more space arround, out to the fender and down to the ground. If I hit/dent anything or something hits/dents me, I will be more safe with that there is more room around the smaller coolers. With the plasement I am using I would have to angle a large cooler way more than two smaller ones. That way it is easier to make ducting and get better efficiency out of the coolers.
And the plasement I am using is the only space I have room for coolers.

 

because i also had two

 

Does kind of look bad ***. especially ^^^^ that one. Very mean.

 

Itīs just a big copy party with all the improvements we can think of.

 

What turbo is that? .68 housing? 2860?

 

Itīs a Garrett 3076

 

Found a nice place for the coils. Easy access and easy to run ignition cables allong the brace.




Made a bigger hole and boxed in the air filter box a bit. Re routed the wires as well to clean it up.








Bought an IC from Bell, but had to modify it a bit. Better braces and another placement. Moved the IC and radiator several centimeters forward to get some more room in the engine bay. Had to do some cutting and welding to get the IC a bit higher up from the ground. But the end result was way better than the original placement.










Had to trim the flanges to get the piping inside the oil cooler brackets.




Radiator and coolant re route

 

did you used the 99-00 head gasket in combination with the reroute?

 

Used a gasket from a Mazda 323F 84-88/89

 

I like how you modified the front part of the body for the IC/radiator/airbox. Very nice.

 

Thanks

It has been time consuming. But it is better to do it nice the first time so you donīt have to redoo anything later on.

 

What radiator is that? These subtle changes are great.

 

Thank you
Its a Mishimoto radiator with Spal fans. Itīs for a NA actually but with all the modifications itīs all the same.

 

Air filter arrived. Was a bit big but persuaded the wheel base and now it fits







Some bracketering. The radiator cover was a bit week after all the cutting.





And a titanium heat shield ower the EM to shield the heat from the nylon hose to the oil breather.

 

Holy **** nice bracket. Also holy **** nice heat shield.

 

I'm loving every update to this car, just like I was drooling at every update to HF's car.

 

I can never not hear the clapping.
Great build, too. I agree.

 

this car is going to be pretty much a copy of mine, just in a NB shell, with upgrades wherever ive found small issues, or room for improvement
