Hi there,

I believe there is one for sale on ebay - just have a look under cars, accessories and then exterior accessories.

There is also one for sale at firesport

http://firesport.ipspace.com/?section=item&act ion=show&id=18671

It's in melbourne, but only $40, I doubt postage will be too bad

Good luck,

Darcangel.

if your creative - see about using one of the carmate style scoops and get it moulded into the skin ..

Im assuming your using a st185 motor W/ top mount here

otherwise - ave your bonnet skin - and attempt to mount the cooler in the front - that way your piping will be there for a larger intercooler later on .. Its much more efficient this way too

im not currently sure on what the situation for camry_GT
but he is taking about a st162 which is the 3sge, not the 3sgte which has a topmount intercooler standard.

Ahh ok - jumped to the conclusion a 3sgte was involved ..

if its not beign used for intercooling there isnt much point .. having some bonnet vents to expell heat would provide benifit though - something tasteful at the back like an XR6 style or cosworth grill

a scoop would provide air directly down on the motor but would also possibly cause the bonnet to lift if it had no where to escape from there

Strangely all of the sections in the classified area of the forum are for either buying or selling things. This section is for selling body and interior things. Since this thread, and the others you've started in this section, is not a for sale thread it will now be moved.

Please in future look at what the section you are posting in is for.
