Hey I was wondering what you guys think is the best front mount intercooler for me??? I have a 93 FD with stock twins, intake, DP, MP, Exhaust, G-force unlimited ecu. I want a front mount instead of a stock mount, any suggestions. Thanks

 

Do a search cause this question was asked at least 3 times in the past 2 weeks and those threads got some good replies. I have the RX-7 Fashion FMIC and love it. It requires some modification to the metal behind the bumper but it's the biggest IC you can fit up there, plus you can use a cold air intake with it and you keep the radiator and ac condensor in the stock locations. I was stuck in an hour of stop and go (0-10mph) traffic yesterday coming home from the NJ BBQ and my water temps never went above 89C. Intake temps started out at the begining of the traffic at 38C, they slowly climbed to a max of 69C over the hour, but as soon as we got moving again they plummeted to the low 40s and eventually back to the low 30s. Ambient temps were ~80F and it was very humid.

Here are some pics from the install - http://jrx7.rx7life.com/fmicpics.htm My site is a little slow right now so try again later if you can't see them.

 

I also have the RX-7 Fashion FMIC....It's the best.

 

congratulations JR, looks liek you got it installed.

What did you use to break the welds for the reinforcement bar.

 

I used a 5/16" bit to drill out the spot welds and then I took a cold chisel and banged it up off the frame, and then it just fell off.

 

Twinturboteddy...nice CYM.

 

i also have the RX-7 FASHION FMIC and have never had aproblem with it

 

well wow! i wouldve never imagined that so many people have rx7fashions FMIC. but fortunately im no exception either, i also have this intercooler and i absolutely love it. took a full day to get it installed since i have a fluidyne rad but it was well worth it. even after a hard run u can touch the right side of the IC and it is hot meanwhile the other side is ice cold. its amazing

 

I have a greddy and no complaints

heres a pic of mine

 

Does anyone have the stock fog lights and the rx7fashion FIMC? ...do they fit together?

 

no, the fogs will not fit with the FMIC

 

I was able to remount my PIAA in front of my Rotary Extreme (aka RX7 Fashion) FMIC.

I posted a pic in the Gallery.....image pending approval.

I'm getting the Blitz FMIC, I've heard nothing but good things about it. Should be here in a few days.

I'd like to keep my mods w/ Apex. So what do you all think of the Apex FMIC?
