Picture of my new itty bitty IC
I think I m gonna do away with the black metal brackets that once held the radiator and condenser together. Looks like I can get this to fit pretty easily with the radiator...
Any thoughts on this? |
Just stick it out in front of the bumper, like the push bar on the General Lee. :D :D
|
what is it. a isuzu npr intetcooler.
|
wear are you going to mount that, in the passenger cab or just replace the hood? :D Wait, new sunroof right?
|
He's going to have to split the radiator and run them in side pods like a rally car or Formula 1... :cool:
|
Wow... That's quite an IC. We'll definately want pics of it installed.
Make sure you don't block too much air to the radiator with that thing. It's a shame there isn't a good way to hang them out front of the car, with the bumper designed the way it is. Good luck! |
hey s2-13bt, you have any pics of your car? i just like seeing turbo 1st gens even if they are on a different continent than me.
|
Yeah, I've got some pics, but only recent pics I took of the big ass dent in my drivers side front 1/4 panel. The result of a lady failing to giveway. :mad:
I'll take some pics of the car once it's all fixed up, which will hopefully be soon. The car is a completely stock looking white '81, only slightly lowered with tinted windows. It's definately a sleeper which can surprise some people. It's even fairly quiet! Later. |

No, no... she hit me! :) Put a dent in her walking frame and all.
Just kidding. Sorry to hijack your thread too... back to the IC people. See ya. |
anyone else though about cuttin the firewall where the panel is for the wiper and sprayer nozels. at first i was thinkin iddy bitty ic, but then oil cooler came to mind, but now i think im retarded cause all the hot air would go out through it. why not just leave it like that for cooling, would that help?

SO Mike,
You still gonna be running the stock radiator? I have a griffen and a small NPR for my car.. I am having to make new mount supports and ducting. But it should be nice when done. -Zach |
I have seen on road race cars where the oil coolers are layed flat, then an airscoop is fabricated to direct the air up through the cooler. Seems to be very effective. Not sure how it would work on a ic or if there is enough realestate under the front bumper for that giant?
|
The stock radiator fit inside of the ducts nicely w/o the brackets, but that doesnt seem practical. I chasing many different thoughts through my head to mount it, I might trade Alex for his small polished one?
If I use the big one, then I can get alex another they had 3 of them :D |
I felt left out..
