Not cos it wouldn't support the power I'm after, but the amount of cutting required to make it fit. I didn't do that to my G series, I sure as hell wouldn't chop up the front of a F6. I sold it on. It is a very nicely made kit, but in terms of fitment, its a cock up, they've got a generic cooler and "tweaked" it to fit a falcon, thus the butchering required. My suggestion is to look at the stepped coolers, from cheap to expensive: 1) PWR 2) Process West 3) Johny Tig The Intune piping kit should work with all of the above and the best value for money at under $300 delivered, or run the gauntlet with factory plastic until it pops Are you saying there is not much of an upgrade from the fg f6 cooler and the stage 1 process west? to jump straight to the stage 2? 2 hours ago, BAXRTUTE said: Id suggest pm jeturbo as he can get his hands on just about anything and for better prices! Where r u located? Whom are u looking at for tuning? power isnt cheap, though u have one of the best cars on the planet as a base to improve ( if the right gear is added to the car ) PMed JETURBO, see if he has the time and effort to sorting out what I am after, Located in SE SUBURBS Victoria, I got my old 404rwkw rb25/30 skyline build by Dan at Boosted Automotive (Parents business is Springy Performance/Motors), so I will probably get him to install the goodies and tune it at Springy Motors EDIT: Im not a burnout type of guy, im more of a try steering it straight without letting go of the pedal, would oil pump gears still be recomended?

I think I will go ahead and order the process west stage 1 cooler, or get the stage 2 for 380-400rwkw? as this is the largest cooler that can be installed without modifying or cutting anything. Do the factory oil pump gears fail at the power Im looking at? As your the first to recommend it honestly, Dump and cat will get, placed the venom cat up for sale already. Standard rear catback will suit 380-400? or best to get catback too to avoid future problems. Is there anything else I'm missing? Anything small? Cooler thermostat? Throttle body replacement pipe? Seems plugs have to be replugged to 0.75. As the boys above have just said, high power limiter bashing will end in disaster at some point!! There are guys running high 400rw with stock pump gears and have had no dramas ( as yet ) your zorst will cope with 380ish rw maybe more.... though again the more u push the engine without the right bolt ons the more the repair bills will cost at some point.

Both made from same steel too... If all green light, Ill place the order, ebay have a 10% off code at the moment so may as well take advantage of it. May have to get full exhaust dump to catback. Does anyone have any recomendations? Theres a bloke selling a second hand one for sub $1,000. Though with a gutted cat not a hi flow one. (cheeky) Stage 1 intercooler safe for 400rwkw? If so, will just order that tonight too. And be done with the headache Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAXRTUTE Gold Donating Members 2,639 Member For: 8y 9d Posted 23/11/16 06:24 AM Share Posted 23/11/16 06:24 AM Honestly mate, wait for @JETURBO to respond to your pm, he will head u in the right direction and get u some great deals on many items. No point rushing today.... info has been provided by many of us no bodies lols. If u are gonna do pump gears u need to do the pump and backing plate with it!

gaz097 Bronze Donating Members 1,751 Member For: 12y 9m 6d Posted 23/11/16 06:37 AM Share Posted 23/11/16 06:37 AM I've seen 450kw on stock Fg cat back. Stage 1 cooler is rubbish, go stage 2, or 3. If auto wouldn't do pump gears. The labour to do it is ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabo Member 18 Member For: 13y 2m 1d Posted 23/11/16 06:46 AM Author Share Posted 23/11/16 06:46 AM You dont think Stage 1 is capable of handling say 400rwkw? Your the second person to tell me this, that it is more common to occur in manual cars then it is in autos. And that auto is generally safe up to 500kw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
