Alex Posted August 28, 2001 Share Posted August 28, 2001 When watching the film footage at the start of GT3 the Denso SARD Supra has a unit at the front of the engine bay which looks to me like a radiator. Does any one know if it could be a radiator or an oil cooler or even an intercooler. You can only see it for a second but it looked quite good in that position. If it is a horizontal radiator why would it be done like that? Can anyone seen a good reason for it. Could it be that if you lay it flat you could force air from below up and through a massive bonnet vent like the Veilside one??? Technical theory class is now in session.....

Rich J Posted September 7, 2001 Share Posted September 7, 2001 Remember the Denso and Toms Supras use 2L turboed engines (possibly based on MR2 units?) sat well back in the engine bay for better weight distribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted September 7, 2001 Share Posted September 7, 2001 and so they mount the IC right where it can get some serious airflow which is prpbably what you can see. JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted September 8, 2001 Share Posted September 8, 2001 nope, you get two blobs at 51.... Even one of the Supras from a lesser race series would be cool, but a Denso or Toms would really make a track monster. Perhaps JIC can do a special for us...
