I laugh all the time when I see Hilux owners and Navara owners that have bolted a light bar on top of their Bullbar directly in front of their scoop!! Yeah good luck with that!

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

Have you tried the tape and wool trick with yours to see how the air flows? You might be surprised.

No but have read plenty on it and understand the poor flow. The ARE scoop is higher to catch some more air above the low pressure zone. The WRX Scoop is much higher too.
I reckon that is a Big mouth Open!
Even with those lights mounted above (No longer there) it was still wide open and given as much of a chance as it can to get air flow.

but is your intercooler not at the front anymore?????? Or does having a scoop aid in engine cooling as well as extra wank factor?

Its a guy off the other patrol forum, he grafted the cruiser scoop onto the bonnet, so it's a bloody expensive scoop

I have this 79 series bonnet scoop grafted onto my GQ. Is this of help? I can throw a tape over it provided you tell me what you are looking for specificallyBonnet Scoop.JPGbonnet insulation.JPG I am not running a top mount intercooler, the scoop is for clearance on the engine, but does provide some slow speed venting.
