and GRS intercoolers, can they actually both be fitted to the car?
if so any pics would be good, most people dont seem to think its possible.
custom brackets might have to be on the list.

incase anyone was wondering why i want to keep them, my car looks fully standard, down to the lights, so i want everything exterior wise left on.

it can i will post a pic quickly


edit:

Here you go!



i made new brackets on the bottem and twisted them a little bit so the IC hangs back on the top. i needed to do this for my fan and bumper to fit. So i cut off the top 2 brackets and it's extremely tight. The GRS that i have is such a tight fit that it's no problem to use only 2 brackets. Also the hoses hold it in place very well.

think spots look well good, my mate was telling me about when he mounted one on the back of his car; told the police it was a reverse light but it was really for when people were right up his arse... give them 150w lucas flash and they thought aliens were landing!

i've got a radtec cooler and want to fit spots back on - looks like it'll be easy enough?

i had spots on mine with a GRS cooler and all i did was make spacer blocks for the lamp brackets! took then off though cos i think it looks better without them!

good to see its possible thanks for the pics, looks like something will have to be made up.

on another note, ive trial fitted the GRS, does the radiator need to be moved back? ive still got the standard fan on it

normally people tend to go with a slimline fan when fitting a large front mount cooler.

im doing it on mine and going to hide the light somewhere, probably on the parcel shelf, will give the prick behind a right shock lmao!
