Hi 4GTuners.. my name's Chris and I bought a stock TME just before Christmas last year..

I've attached some images below..

Been out of the car scene now for many many years now.. but have previously owned a few 200sx.. however I've always wanted a TME..

Last year the wife gave me the ok to purchase whatever car I wanted.. so I finally made the purchase and I sold the very corporate looking BMW and my weekend Ducati..

My plan is to keep the TME stock as possible with some minor works to make it run more efficiently..

I'm planning to drive around this car daily for atleast the next 18 months until we move and hopefully have enough garage space to keep this as a weekender..

Anyway I was driving home last night when a rock fell from a back of the truck in the freeway and smacked straight into my intercooler..

The car seems to run ok.. it certainly smashed up the mesh and fins.. but I want to replace the cooler just in case..

I'm not looking to upgrade to an aftermarket unit at this stage..

If u know anyone with a stock TME intercooler who might want to get rid of it.. please let me know and lets work out a price..

Thanks..

Chris

PS: Looking forward to joining and meeting some of u guys during events in Vic...

hahha happy wife happy life.. is a married man's motto..

It guarantees I dont sleep on the couch every night and I have a few toys in the garage..

Plus I heard divorce is expensive and I enjoy being able to afford my toys..

BTW do u know if the cooler on the TME is the same as all the other Evos?

Very nice car mate. They're great cars.
Pitty bout your incident with the rock.
Hope to see your car around sometime.

Thanks guys.. I'm really looking forward to getting back in the car scene again after many many years..

Hopefully I can source a replacement stock intercooler soon..

I don't want to be driving the car around just in case..

[DOUGMO]

Techsport will have one in stock I would say Chris.
5/6 coolers are the same from memory

Very nice example of a awesome car, done well mate.
Sorry to hear about to rock incident, nothing worse then something going wrong that you cant do anything about.
Hope it all gets sorted and your out having fun in no time
