COBB Tuning Release Secondary Oil Cooler for Nissan GT-R

2009年9月09日

cobb-oilcooler-100

COBB Tuning really need no introduction for people in the GT-R world as their AccessPort product is the backbone for something like 99% of the world’s tuned Nissan R35 GT-Rs.

Today they’ve extended the range of top quality parts with the addition of a limited edition secondary engine oil cooler kit. Keeping engine oil temps in check is essential for anyone planning on even moderate amounts of circuit work, especially in warmer climates.

The core of this oil cooler kit is the Mocal 25 row air-to-oil cooler fixed in place by a custom CAD designed powder coated bracket. The bracket allows the core to be lined up to take advantage of the unused drivers side intake through which air is guided using genuine Nissan OEM ducting (included in the kit).

For the rest of the kit, nothing has been spared with attention to detail evident in every component. From the high quality anodized aluminum hose fittings to the genuine OEM replacement gaskets included.

Expect these to sell out fast but right now you can secure yours at one of the links below for just $1,395.

AAM Competition Intercooler for Nissan GT-R

2009年8月04日

aam-cooler-001

Almost anyone who’s ever owned a turbocharged car before in their life KNOWS this. You need a bigger intercooler. Your factory ones do a job and is suitable for it’s intended purpose but as soon as you begin tuning you’re running into a problem. It’s simple and luckily most people get it. Air makes power, air goes in (intake) and air comes out (exhaust) and the cooler your intake air, the more dense the air is and the more power you make. Simple.

Remove some restrictions on both sides, better exhaust, less cats, better filters and more free flowing high performance intercooler and reap the benefits.

AAM has thus put the finishing touches on exactly what YOU need. Their new AAM Competition Intercooler for the Nissan GT-R has been fitted up in prototype form and it looks to fit the bill. Featuring a big volume increase by maxing out the use of available space, it still manages to bolt on in the OEM cooler location with no drama.

Looks pretty badass too. I’m sure we’ll be seeing pricing by the end of the week.

Thanks Clint from AAM!

I’m surprised it’s taken this long to see a upgraded radiator for the GT-R but today SSP have a press release regarding exactly that.

Featuring a 1.5 inch core thickness, the SSP radiator is a full lightweight aluminum item that is designed as a direct replacement, straight fit upgrade for the GT-R.

Cooling the VR38 is of top priority for many owners who push their cars to the limit on the circuit and a radiator is logical place to start. Hit up the full press release after the jump…

Willall Racing’s Transmission Cooler Released, Tested

2009年3月19日

Willall Racing WR35TC Transmission Sump Cooler

We were able to give you guys a heads up on the new Willall Racing WR35TC GR6 Transmission Intercooler back in February but now it’s out on sale with data to back it up. One important item we had not mentioned about the WR35TC until now is that it features a coolant pump of it’s own so it does not suffer from the oil pressure issues some other transmission coolers do when relying on the standard oil pump alone.

Willall have taken their own GT-R to the track and put the cooler through a grueling set of hot laps to test it out. On the same day they measured temperatures on the car with the cooler off. Here are the results of the testing:


Lap # WR35TC ON WR35TC OFF WR35TC ON then OFF
1 215°F 220°F 231°F (OFF)
2 226°F 231°F 240°F (OFF)
3 237°F 248°F 252°F (OFF)
4 240°F 265°F 264°F (OFF)
5 242°F 272°F 261°F (ON)
6 241°F 255°F (ON)
7 252°F (ON)
8 250°F (ON)
9 249°F (ON)

The cooler comes in a kit with everything you need include:

  • Billet Aluminium CNC sump with Willall Racing Transfer
  • Bar and Plate 450mm x 100mm x 75mm cooler core custom end tanks with -6 fittings
  • Braided lines and -6 / JIC high pressure fittings (around 4 feet)
  • Mounting bracket CNC machined from billet aluminium
  • GR6 Cooler transfer Pump assy
  • Wiring harness (front to rear of vehicle from the battery)
  • WR series 200F Temperature switch
  • Replacement fill plug CNC machined
  • Magnet mounts CNC machined with captive O-rings
  • Silicone hose – custom crimp fittings CNC machined
  • P rubber lined Mounting Clamps x 5
  • Intercooler Mounting bracket
  • Mounting bolts x 4
  • Instruction Manual

As mentioned, the WR35TC is available now. You can pick up the whole kit shipped to your door for $2995 USD while the transmission sump cooler alone is just $1300 USD delivered. When fitted up you can hardly tell it’s there from behind (see photos below) but you’ll sure be glad it is next time you hit the track.

For those in the US, Marietta, GA based Forged Performance has just entered an alliance with Willall to distribute their products in the US so get in touch with the guys there for help with this.

Willall Racing WR35TC Transmission Cooler – Part 2

2009年2月26日

Willall Racing’s Nissan GT-R GR6 transmission cooler (WR35TC) gets a few more details revealed today. Above you can see a photo of the cooler core being shown against the GT-R for size comparison. The final core will live behind the rear underspoiler grille and bolt on to factory mounting points – no drilling required.

The fluid-air bar and plate cooler is only operated at high fluid temps since operating a cooler at low temps is undesirable.

Once installed the cooler is hardly visible through the rear grille section, we should have installed core photos soon. For now Willall Racing has provided us with a shot of the WR35TC’s aluminium billet extended transmission sump fitted up. See below.
