Well you have to problems and if you solve both your fine.
A/C condensor has pipes that run to the front then to the back so the cooler has to stick out about 50mm - 60mm to clear. Which means you need to take out another 60mm out of the front bar.
Also if you have a power steer cooler it needs to be relocated or removed same goes for the Auto cooler if fitted.
paradox your going to be OH MY GOD FULLY SICK, coz youve got a turbo and an inter cooler hahahahaha
Stato on the inside, berlina on the out side,5ltr under the bonnet,stockies all round...........that thing has to be a sleeper

i have a small intercooler for my pulsar i was going to put in on my commodore but i would struggle to mount that behind my standard bumper cos of that pipe on the condencer. that is another reason i want to go water to air.
doesnt vp_luke have a cooler behind his bar? maybe ask him?
i want a mock up cooler now haha.. at least untill i can afford to turbo

yeah ive seen lukes setup before he showed me, i think he moved it or something, he showed me how to do it, god damn im hung over.... how the hell did i get home last night???
im going down to bunnings soon to buy some brackets
lol man its gonna be Dose-a-holic all the muzza's willl start to rave when i dose it
should look fully sick with that cooler tucked in behind your bar. gotta move that condenser. also maybe mount a bigger thin transcooler between the intercooler and radiator as they are going to be less efficient with that big intercooler in front off em

i STILL say gordon, 'sif boost when you can have a V8 a much more loved note!!
lookin good though man.. keep up the efforts, they will pay off.
Any idea how much you're gonna have to take out of the front bar yet man?
that fits in there better than i would have thought. looks good
now if you want it fully sic uleh spec you will need to mount you numberplate to one side
fu2: that adds at least 25-50 rwkw just adjusting the numberplate situation on it's own!
Damn.. Sorry AirStrike, I knew there was something wrong!![]()
LOL, i took 3" off the rear bar.. PERFECT FIT, no joke the 600x300x80 intercoolers fit PERFECT, i bent some of the fins trying to put the bumper on went back with tweazers and kinda fixed it up a bit...
its all stealthed, looks like a shinny radiator... you'll see me dosing by noble soon enough
it should be good, im looking into importing some parts from the states... im not gonna say what yet but it will be a few thousand worth
im thinking ill get slim line plates $50 for more airflow to the cooler
LOL
I see so many fully sik stock N/A VLs out there with intercoolers but no turbo and the plate mounted to the side. Mind you, gotta have almost no front bar to show off the shiny alloy love and make sure the next stone that flies up destroys your lovely cooler.
Paradox616, looks good behind the bar like that. It's there but ain't all "Look at me!!!".
