But I AM surprised he doesnt send pictures of the car BEFORE he sells them, though

 

I just wanted a low-ish miles 96-spec FD to replace the 94 that I killed before xmas . Mods werent an issue, it just happended that this car had had a few done already. I looked at a stock 96 RZ with half the mileage again on it which was going for £16K here in th UK, nice but big premium for the RZ so off to Japan!!

Any ways, I wanted a 96, and have got one just wont have to buy a few goodies that I otherwise would have planned to! Intake looks a bit dodge, so will prob replace And other bits of course As for the 2nd rad - puzzling, I dont think its much special. Will find out when it arrives! It looks standard externally BTW.

Looks really good mate

 

What spoiler is that? By the way very sweet looking car congrats!!!

 

Its the standard Jap 96-98(?) rear spoiler; the one between the 'usual' one and the 98-onward jobbie thats variable angle. Allegedly it does produce a small amount of D/F (at warp speed?), compared to the 'usual' one any how. I'll let u know in due course

BTW, sorry about the multiple posts - PC/me were having a mare (just back from pub...)

Cheers mate! Back to work in the morning for three days but I'll do that.

 

Yea forums provide a sort of link to gather people from all over the world together. Thank goddess for forums!

 

I bet it's not a dual radiator.

I bet it's a IC/radiator combo

In V config... like this <

So air coming into the nose of the car has two choices... go through the rad..or go through the IC....

I think Knight sports also makes one...

 

And I think I found it.

FD Pilot is correct. I knew that sounded odd having a "v" shaped radiator. I get it quite a bit...why do you have two radiators?

 

Looks nothing like mine mate. My I/C and rad are in 'normal' positions you'd expect them to be where a FMIC is installed....

 

From Knight Sport's site....





So yours doesn't look like this?

 

Nope. I/C and main rad are in normal position for a FMIC install. Will try and find pic.

 

Ok, this is confusing....

 

I think its for some ancillary. is it stock?

 

That COULD be the AC condensor that you are looking at down at the bottom.

 

 

Yeah, I think you're right, a couple of others have suggested its the A/C 'radiator'. I never noticed it on my old one, but then I guess the FMIC and non-stock rad make it more easily viewable : )

Cheers,
