ka koyo and water and water wetter. No thermostat and a s14 water pump. I think the problem now could be that with no thermostat the rad has no chance to cool the water and just gets forced back into a hotter and hotter engine. I should have tested once more with the bigger waterpump but oh well. lets just hope a triple core brass rad will do the trick. ps I had about 5 hot laps before the 240 degree mark so we are getting a little closer ---

Just run a nismo thermostat or something similar that opens earlier. That’s what I run in mine… works fine. ---

i always thought you would want the air flowing past your engine…or is that air going to be really hot once it passes through intercooler and radiator and any other cooler you have out front to the point where its more beneficial to divert it? ---

No these engines dont need air flowing past the block, The rad provides all the cooling. What I’m trying to do is more air past the rad. I’m hoping that putting a duct on the backside allows the air to flow easier through the rad [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/time-attack-s13/120505.md?page=3) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/time-attack-s13/120505.md?page=5)
