| Not Ranked : 0 score Hey guys, greetings from Australia. Great job on the W2A setup, great to see people thinking outside of the box. I am a big fan of W2A coolers and have use them on some previous rides of mine with great succes. I am real keen to make a setup for my 3 real soon and its great to be able to see other setups, will def help when the time comes for me. Sorry to hi jack the thread, buy ATE BALLER, is your setup basically the OEM top mount enclosed and made into a W2A setup? IDRVSLO, you said you brought yours as a kit for another model of car and modded to suit, i have found your actual cooler but have not been able to find a kit with the heat exchanger and pump etc.., your gear looks of good quality, the radiator is huuuge, and the pump is in fact the same as i used on my last setup (purchased 2nd hand tho..) Any help would be appreciated guys. Jason |

My heat exchanger core is 24" x 8" x 2.5" and can be found on Ebay. For the pump, I used a Ford/Bosch part found on Cobra/Lightnings and you can get those on Ebay for about $80-$90 or so. I believe IDRVSLO used the same one.

| Not Ranked : 0 score Thanks for the reply's guys, i like forums that actually provides info and not just full of keyboard warriors with an opinion on everything lol. Yeah i have found those kits etc.. on ebay now after a bit of searching. How do you find the quality of the coolers? I am a bit worried about them as the casting doesnt look real good, and the welds are a bit here n there. But im comming from using PWR and Spearco cores prev... Im only after a basic setup to do the job and fit in a small space in the bay. Are you guys running fans on your radiators? How much height clearance do we have for the radiator, i found one that is 24x14"x1", would it fit height wise under the main bar in front? Im interested in that one as it fits a 10" thermo fan. I am also going to set up a ice box, prob in the boot as thats what we done on the other cars. Have you had any issues bleeding the systems? Sorry for all the Q'S but its hard to talk to other people that havnt actually worked on this type of setup before. Thanks again. |
