Hi guy's...
Trust everyone is well.
I am in need of assistance with a issue regarding my RB25DET fitted to my S13.
The car goes exceptionally well, there is however one problem.
I have a Mashimoto allimunuim radiator fitted with two 10inch electronic radiator fans.
The setup works 100% for normal driving, dyno tuning, traffic and also for balls to the wall open road low flying.
However I found that the car heats up quickly and doesn't keep a constant tempreture when playing around after hours in Brakenfell Hypermarket's parking lots, going side ways and shredding rubber.
The car is fitted with the stock frond bumper, I believe this is restricting the airflow quit a bit.
Any suggestions?
I am working on a pressurized water spray system that drenches both inter-cooler and radiator with a water/nitrogen mixture.
Similar to what is fitted to a stock WRX scooby.
I am using a 9kg fire extinguisher body, charged with 8l of h20 and pressurized with 270psi of nitrogen (standard H20 extinguisher).
The system is mounted in-car and the standard noble has been replaced with a 12volt solenoid (operated from a push button on the dash), piped into hoses that feed the mixture to a spray bar fitted to radiator and inter-cooler.
Also were can I take my car to have a full rolcage fitted and made up to MSA standards?
How many RB guys are there in CPT, any one interested in a RB S13/S14 get together?
Kind regards
Richard

^^ let me tell you from my experience... hope this will help everyone with RB or SR swop into S13~!!!
the water temperature sensor on the S13 plug into the SR and RB directly but it sends out a different signal, so the water temperature will read hot but an external guage will read perfectly normal.... your car will run horrible because the ECU thinks the engine is too hot~!!! however its pretty simple to fix all you have to is source out an RB or SR temperature sensor and swop it out with your S13 sensor and you will be fine!!!
