ARC top mount

[JamesB]

Does anyone have one of these or know if they're much better then the standard calzonic one? I imported my R and notice there was an ARC badge on the core. There is about half the number of cooling tubes (if thats what they're called) then standard and the end tanks look bigger with nice welding. Do they flow better? Am I gonna be able to put off getting a front mount for a bit longer?? :lol: Thanx

The ARC is an uprated intercooler for the GTiR... It should flow better and provide better cooling...

Er... No, the ARC is crap but to help you out I'll swap you for my standard one!!!!

Seriously though, the ARC is an uprated part and a good alternative to a front mount.

sweet as - thats music to my ears. Seen a few on jap parts auction sites (for a very pricey $850 aust dollars - you can get a good 2nd hand gtr i/c for less then that!!)

But the cost of making up a custom pipe run evens it out I think. But the front mount will look loads better.

mine has standard piping - even standard i/c shrould fits normally. Aint no f/m though (although my front is cut n meshed like there is one, little do they know)
