Um just checking out the engine bay pics does this ride still have the stock radiator.

09Factor

I did the Tein S-Techs. they provide a nice drop, with a good ride. Also have the Tokico D-Specs adj shocks.

Jamaalsmith

How is the water injection setup, and what kind of flow is the nozzle?

Jamaalsmith

Right now, nothin...i THINK we're using the smallest nozzle in the kit. E, feel free to jump in. The water/meth is currently disconnected from power. The tune is pretty solid and can get along fine without it...its there purely for safety at this point. I'll let you kno when i actually get to DRIVE the thing...

As for cooling, apparently the Iconel shielding is really keeping the underhood temps down, so i shouldnt have to worry about cracking hoses that much. But as for the increased demand on the cooling system i plan on getting a vented hood/new bumper with bigger inlets (nothing too flashy, tryin to keep that semi-sleeper appearance) Perhaps a BHR Rad in the future...

Jamaalsmith

Currently the solution is almost 100% water (had to have windsheild wiper fluid) for the trip home! But in the summer i've been advised to add meth to the mix.

Most premixed washer fluid is typically about 30% meth. There is a lot of additives and dyes in it though that can deposit in the pump, nozzles, etc.

Jamaalsmith

Yes....but i think its water mixed with wiper fluid. Fazda i think i misunderstood your q the first time...lol are you asking if it sprays before or after the turbo or intercooler? that kindof thing?

Manly how its hooked, like pehaps a hobb switch set to turn on pump @ 5psi?
If its a pressure switch or a siliniod? And the flow of the nozzle, I have a setup that flows 330cc I was just wondering if that is enough.

I tried the windshild wiper fluid -30 for a while in another car it seemed to work but left alot of deposits behind, you should be able to find methanol at most hardware stores. Mix with distilled water and your golden

methanol off the shelf ? WOW !

Not something you would see here - in fact you can't even buy distilled water readily .

Nice, now that power is sorted you can work on wheels and coilovers Nice ride and sick power.

Damn MM, nice tune. Those AFR's when pegged on the dyno look perfect.

The benefit of a live dyno tune.

Hmm. I wonder what the NZ govt is worried about impacting by making distilled water a regulated commodity?
It is about $2 for 3 gallons here.

Dumb question time - apart from radiator water etc - what do people there use distilled water for ?

That is why it's not sold here - no-one would know what to do with it .
