whats up supra guys i have a 240sx with an sr20 in it.....i almost bought a 7m b4 this car. But my question is....i got an intercooler from a guy that said it was off of a twin turbo supra. So i was satisfied with it, but after i bought it i realized it didnt have 2 turbo inlets on it ( not sure if its supposed to or not). So now im thinking that its from a 7m. its been a while since i looked at it but as i can remember it was definatly black- about maybe 2 1/2 inches thick- and maybe like 12" x 22" - really have no idea.

Does anyone know what intercooler this is and how much boost it will handle (or hp it will handle) thanks for any help

2J doesnt have 2 either...they Y pipe before it. MK IV has plastic end tanks, 7M is all aluminum. The plastic tanks are the give away.

Both are considered upgrades for smaller turbo cars, and we commonly run em to ~350 for the 7M, and 400 for the 2J

that lookslike it but it didnt have that bracket on it and i dont really think the piping angle like that but the core was definatly like that, which one is that?

it's from an mk3 supra...87-92....it should be able to handle good boost...i'll be running at around 13psi with this set up...i'll let you know how it'll turn out...

The pipe angles changed in 89, and the bracket is removable. Otherwise identical. This is the MK III single turbo unit, not the MK IV twin.

where did the mkIII have the i/c mounted?

front....

sr20damn · 04-20-2004, 12:14 PM

now im confused though, i think it does have plastic end tanks so how is it a mkIII? it looks just like the one in the pic but it has plastic end tanks i believe

i'll take a pic of the intercooler that i have in my car....and it's probably the one that you're talking about...the end tanks are on each side....i believe that it's from an sc300....just a bit smaller than the supra...

sr20damn · 04-20-2004, 02:11 PM

when did the sc300 come turbo? are you in the states?
the intercooler is almost identical to the in the pic and has plastic end tanks

My mechanic said that it was in Japan..they called it saorer or some shiit like that..not really too sure...but the end tanks are in both sides...and just a bit smaller..
