Anyone got any pics of cold air feeds for throttle bodies on their 6 or rallye, trying to get some ideas together?

bit of a work in progress working with what I have to hand and not much money, a 205 rad and some aluminium faced foam board metal bracketry and threaded rod.







oh and its a ZX, so not too dissimilar to a 306.

none yet, will be using one Spal 9" pusher, should be sufficient.


the radiator core is about 60mm shorter but the same width and thickness as a 306 rad, just a bit of a faff to sort the coolant pipes, especially if you want to keep the heat exchanger.

I know quite a few higher powered cars running standard nissens 205 rads without any cooling issues

Looks smart, I'm having a Richw flywheel and new clutch at the moment but along with welding, bodies are absolutely on the list!

Are you running cams too?
