The intercooler is from Jasper 
But it is from a nissan pulsar gtir? the one that fits on top of the engine.
One of these
Cli
ck me
As you can see the inlet and out are on opp sides so what you have to do is cut one of the end tanks off and flip it over, ive had the hose tales
modded a bit to give me a bit more room in the nose cone, oh and they are cheap to buy because no one wants them.

It has been going well, ive had quite a bit of holiday saved up so am taking it at the mo which is good.
Also its a bit easier taking an engine and box from a car that is allready rear wheel drive, that cuts out all the hastle of sorting out clutches and
flywheels etc...
Also i want it on the road by my birthday, middle of march so have to pull my finger out and get on with it.
