Payment sent.

I forgot to say in the payment msg that I wanted the Stainless Lines as well. I did include the extra $55 for them though.

update: I'm still waiting on thermostats to ship the two orders I have pending. Once those two orders ship wild7, your kit will ship The thermostats are supposed to be in by Friday. I will update in a few days. Sorry again for the delays.

I finally got my coolers on. You have to do some cutting on the brackets if you have a 99 spec bumper but they do fit.

They definitely help out at the track but I have only had one track day so far with them and it was the hottest day I've ever been to the track so I can't say how much they help. It was 31C (88F) + very humid (which reduces the cooling effiency of air I believe). Basically, I used to only be able to last 10-15 minutes on the track (on cooler days too), after which my water temps would reach 105C-110C (221F-230F) and I'd begin my cooldown lap(s). Last weekend with the coolers and the very hot day, I couldn't get water temps above 102C (216F) no matter how long I stayed on the track, however my air intake temps kept creeping up until they were dangerously high at 101C which would make me start my cooldown. My high air intake temps are unrelated to the coolers but might be why I couldn't keep cooler temps. So the oil coolers definitely helped but its hard to compare given the extremely hot and humid day it was. Either way, I'm happy with my purchase since I can hassle the GT3's longer then 10 minutes lol.

I'm running BNR Stage 3 twins at 16 PSi so my 7 produces more heat then a single 7 would. And also the tracks I go to have corner after corner (like so http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJhtQ-99AYI). I'm gonna get some ducting work done sometime this month (hopefully) to both the coolers and the rad+intercooler and see how that goes. And in about 2 weeks, some more track time (hopefully a cooler day) and then we'll see how much these coolers shine.

Here's another vid ^_^ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13xlmYb4Uf8

As thewird said, there are some fittment issues when using the 99 spec front. We are working on a fix for that. The issue should be resolved in the next few weeks. The kit will fit as is, but some cutting is required. Once the issue is resolved, cutting should not be necessary.

Your payment JUST cleared a few days ago. We have said multiple times it will take roughly two weeks to receive the kit from when the payment clears. Your order will HOPEFULLY arrive here on Monday. Like I said said before I have two previous orders to ship (that have been waiting over a month) before yours ships. I will TRY to get yours out Monday, if not then possibly Tuesday. Once your order ships from here it will take about five business days to arrive to you.

Regards,
Dan

...I hope to submit payment for these nice oil cooler set sometime in August before the price adjusts. But I'm waiting on the '99 bumper fitment/update thing, too. Any updates to the below...?

I'm waiting on a few fittings to come in....the line that connects the coolers is going to be different. Possibly some of the brackets will be re-designed and a few different fittings needed. The 99 spec front kit will most likely be different, and a little more expensive. The only reason it will be more expensive is because the fittings we have to use to make it fit correctly are more expensive.

hahaha, no they're not ready to ship.....But I can have the kit next week for you. I'm not sure you'll save that much by coming to pick it up, gas is expensive man. You could meet me at our shop in Elkton if you wanted....There is a karate place right down the street from the shop, maybe I'll take a few classes and turn the tables on ya!!

I would like to get in on this pricing, however, I would like to have bracketing that fits with the 99 spec front end... without cutting.

Any status update on that?

Side-Note: Does the RE V-Mount allow for the retention of AC? and would the dual setrab setup work with ac and the re v-mount? (assuming it allows me to keep ac)

The 99 spec brackets have not been finalized yet. I will have to make a custom bracket for the oil thermostat to sit on to fit with the RE-V-mount. The dual oil cooler kit will fit easily with the v-mount and A/C.

The Rotary Extreme v-mount does allow for A/C retention, but you need to have one of the lines re-welded on the AC condenser.

K, then I will be purchasing once the 99 spec brackets are finalized.
