jason_l Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 TRS tow strap looks epic! Been thinking about getting them also Pictures don't show the colour, same as my harnesses i believe. Keep up the good work dude, get this done!!!!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tom2 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 i look forward to it mate Whats wrong with the engine anyways mate? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 Yea Jase the colour is lush, my flash was on though will get some better pics tomorrow hopefully! The demon needs some!!Basically I have lost compression on a cylinder mate, so melted piston or rings have gone, something along those lines. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sanchez Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Looking good mate! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted October 24, 2010 Author Share Posted October 24, 2010 Didnt get to mount the oil cooler today because of the normal radiator still in place but it looks a good piece of kit Come to the conclusion that my bay needs to be decluttered!! So much shit there isnt much room for anything, so ABS is going, possibly Power steering and battery in the boot etc. Any while the engine is out of the bay it will be tidied and all the shit not needed will be binned!!Anyway a few pics, managed to get the TRS tow strap in its true colourThink I need a few more fittings for the thermoColour of the cooler is stunningWhich way shall I mount it?

SiCaln Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 horizontal i'd say mate - surely better flow as more surface area in contact with air flow Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted October 24, 2010 Author Share Posted October 24, 2010 What I was thinking mate, will have to mount it the otherside though so I can still run a air filter straight off the turbo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 If your going to be using a smaller rad then I wouldn't mount it horizontally on the passengers side as it will block direct air to the radiator. I am fitting my Sard oil cooler (similar size to yours I think) the same as you fitted it on the last picture. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted October 24, 2010 Author Share Posted October 24, 2010 Oh yea completely forgot about that!! Might have to be like the last picture then but tbh the ones I have seen have been mounted like that anyway so must be the best way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Ditto, most of them do seem to be fitted that way Quote Link to post Share on other sites
