hey guys noticed there are a few different cooler kits selling on ebay and all need one or two holes cut in the body to fit. has anyone bought one of these kits and modified the pipe work to no holes.
any feedback would be awesome as im finding it hard to find any gktech kits

The older gtech kits apparently fit perfect but the newer ones need modifying from what I've heard on the forum maybe try n chase up one of the older kits

I'm running a just jap kit(cooling pro). It has the no holes pipe work. Took a little bit of work, however it fits nice. I'm happy with it for the price.
Cheers

No holes at all. Not many pics. These are the best I can do
The two joins in the pipe work end up on the left hand side behind the radiator and I front of the ac and power steer pump. Hope this helps.

For $300 I spose you can't complain and you just have to modify it to suit, when I bought the kit off JustJap the shipping took weeks, the kit was missing silicone pieces that I needed to fit the piping, it fouled the power steering pump etc etc was a bit of a nightmare.
