How do you keep your supra cool?

[MK3.0dudeman]

So I'm still trying to think were I'm going to put all my coolers and I have been looking around at everyones ideas but I was thinking we should have them all in one thread.so lets see you oil cooler,trans cooler,power steering cooler,brake cooler,intercooler,diff cooler,ect ect.Please post up size,what you had to remove or ad to make it work/fit o and please post as many pics as you can.

I would start this off with some pics but I'm still stock.So lets see what you got!!

 

[annoyingrob]

Hydro fan cooler in front of IC, in front of A/C, in front of rad. There's also two power steering coolers on top of the IC. Needs more PS cooling, though. Going to install a small A/T cooler behind one of the fog lights.

trans cooler only for automatics, so you can cross that off.
oil cooler? do it the JDM way, hah. if you've ever seen those rediculous japanese show cars, you'd know what i mean.
brake cooler? you got water cooled brembos? hah, or we talking ducting.
speaking of water cooled..there was a RS4 in the shop today, and the tech was taking down the water cooled alternator. i thought that was pretty nutso.


annoying rob: just curious, how can you tell you need more PS cooling?

I have something similar.

I have a Koyo Radiator, two small transmission cooler (one for p/s the other for hydro), RX7, and intercooler.

The two transmission coolers are side by side at the top of the koyo radiator (where the condensor use to be) and once i get a good sandwhich plate my RX7 cooler will be right under these at the bottom of the Koyo. Then the IC will be in front of those 4.

I might switch over to rail coolers once funds are better to clean up the front end. Its not that bad looking but its not complete either.

Aftermarket IC at front, oil cooler behind the left hand side foglight, trans cooler behind IC, then aftermarket rad.

Coz my IC is short and squat, we had to remove the reo and crash pad from the front bar, and my bf made up heaps of brackets. It all sits in there very nciely, and we still have room for more if need be. (GRex oil cooler is going in this week, most likely it will fit where the stock one currently is).

Will go get some pics and put them up in an hour

-well you can ad a trans cooler for a 5speed it's takes a lot of moding
-ooo I know the jdm way:naughty:and I don't think it's cool at all
-I mean ducting unless sombody came up with somthing out of this world
-thats nuts.The big joke with me and onejarpus is we call our friends and ask them if they could get us a radiator for a 71 beatel.HAHA thats my fav

 

[7Mboost]

Aluminum radiator & two 7" Spal fans, one on the condenser and one on the radiator in place of the stock ac fans (more for clearance than cooling though).

Huge B&M oil cooler (mocal t-stat and the works)
Power steering cooler (stock oil cooler)
ETS IC Kit

[tlo86]

[Keros]

A really awesome pair of designer sunglasses. Anything else is just half-assing Cool.




Eeerrr... seriously though, front plastics and a good radiator is the basics for those that don't go to the track. I see alot of supras without the engine underpan, so perhaps the basics escapes many owners?

 

[87nasupra]

i made an underside pan from aluminum last week....i show a good 15 Deg. drop in traffic and 24 Degs. on the highway.....im n/a so i cant vouch for the turbo guys.

N/A has stock radiator, b&m trans cooler, stock ps cooler.

Turbo has KOYO rad, Replica sparco intercooler, B&M 2" x 13" x 9" w/mocal t-stat inline oil cooler, PS has OLD oil cooler now w/ inline magnafine filter.

 

[MK3.0dudeman]

wow I'm happy that this thread came back from the dead but come on guys could we get some pics!

 

[foreverpsycotic]

I am using a small AT cooler as a PS cooler IIRC 6x4x1, 24x12x3.5 IC, stock rad with dual FAL fans.

 

[Turbo Drifter]

Oil cooler install.

180* thermostat and removal of stock oil cooler and bracket.

Intercooler mounted.

Space left after install....not much.

Intercooler mounting brackets.

Total cooling mods so far are Spal fans, Koyo rad, 20 row Earls oil cooler, Mocal Plate, Spearco custom intercooler 24x12x3.5 and Turbo A duct.

Future planes are, one more oil cooler, PS cooler (B&M tranny cooler), Fully sealed duct work (get all the air that comes in the front to the rad), Mechanical fan, brake duct work, and custom brake backing plates and Water/meth injection. Possible Diff and tranny coolers too depending on how they handle track use.

Enjoy.
