Default Anyone got pics of Steve's (Rmyers') cooler?

Hey guys,

I got my cooler on Friday as some of you might have seen. It's the same size as Steve's (450x300), I got it because I saw the way his is all fitted up nicely with only minor mods req'd to the chassis rails to fit it.

I haven't seen what he's done close up, so I'm wondering if anyone has pics so I can have a look and see what's involved in fitting it? I have 2 of the pics that he posted himself on the forums, they're no good, so I'm hoping someone got pics on the mini meet he came to or whenever.

I called Swift up today to see how much they'd charge to do fit my cooler and do the piping the same way they did Steve's, but they didn't remember Steve and said they'd call back after speaking to the mechanics. It's been 2 hours and the ****heads haven't called.

Should have just turbo'd a EF.

Swift called me back this morning. They were pretty vague, will approx. cost $600-$900 to do like Steve's. I've decided I'm gunna call them back and say that I want it done for $700 cash or whatever and see how I go. Opinions?

It's $450 just to get the piping done at Exhaust Fix in Croydon, and to mount them using silicon sleeves. Thing is I need to "modify" the chassis rails so that the piping fits behind the bar and doesn't hang low etc. I would do it myself by I don't know how. Anyone able to help a brother out? ;) If not, what's the best tool (grinder, oxy, air hack saw etc. :S ???) to use to "cut" or modify a chassis rail :

Eh John next time you go round to Steve's get us some happy snaps eh bro ;) :voldar02:

Qwikcorty went the water to air cooler option and there was no cutting need to fit it up.
