myplasticegg Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 are you looking for it to flow side to side or up and down? If you want up and down, get a bunch of Saab cores and weld them up, they are made by blackstone and are quality. If you want side to side get 2 SRT-4 or PT cruiser units. The pt cruiser ones are shorter but have one extra row. If you're looking for something that looks good and performs, give turbonetics a call.

ZT-R Posted December 2, 2005 Author Share Posted December 2, 2005 looking for side to side with enough cfm for a gt40 (big single for a rb26) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-Gad Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Contact James http://www.speedshopthagard.com He was/is an authorized dealer of Spearco cores. I don't know if he is making any more intercoolers (made mine, Joel's and JT's), but I'm pretty sure he can still purchase the cores for a decent price. Check my album for photos to see the intercooler he did up for me. It is a pretty large core. http://album.hybridz.org/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=7981 BTW, he recently moved to SC as well.

vashonz Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Just a heads up that more shorter tubes (up and down) will have less pressure drop than the same core area that has fewer longer tubes (side to side). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randy 77zt Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 i got 1 of those chinese 240sx ic's off of ebay for $250.it basically covers up the whole radiator.i will have to weld on some of those tight radius cast aluminum el's to make it through the core support.i bought a tank of argon and a roll of aluminum wire for my mig.will try welding it tommorrow.
