Z1 Brake Cooling - Install with Pictures.

Corsairprime

Hello Z Brothers and Sisters.

I'm not sure if anyone posted their install images yet for this Z1 brake Cooling Kit. I'll post it up and see how it goes. Thank you Z1 for a fine product to build from.

I have recently completed the Z1 Brake Cooling Install for track-day cooling enhancement. Prior to this point I have installed a Fuji front bumper and performed the washer fluid reservoir delete. Sorry about some of the pictures being rotated 90 degrees. Could not help it. Phone centric photo orientation.

Also to this bumper I added:
Stainless Steel #5 mesh screens(2x):

Howe Racing RE305 Intake ducts(2x).

Here is everything You will need to complete the install on one side of the car.


First measure and trim the cooling hose to the length that will work with your cooling intake ducts. For me this is slightly more than 3 feet. I used the angle grinder to cut the hose. Then attach it to the Z1 Brake Cooling Backing Plate on the front suspension.


Route this hose behind the steering arm and above the lower suspension. I did not secure it here so that it is free to move around a bit. The Z1 hose is stiff enough that it won't move much.


I did secure it to the frame near the front of the wheel well. It also passes thru to the intake duct at this location. You can see the opening I cut in the fender liner to allow the pass-thru.


Attach it to the Howe RE305 Intake as shown. Also seen here is the 2.5" aluminum joiner tube I bought to attach the hose to the adapter and intake duct.


All Done, reach out if you have any questions.
