WRC Water Injectors on front crash bar????, Feature I didn't know about??!! Options

[Tech-Nics]

When I got my GT-Four bumper I thought it was an ordinary GT-Four front bumper until I noticed there was injectors in the inner side of the crash bar. At first I did't even know what the hell those were for. So I just left them in and installed my bumper. Just recently I was looking around and I came over the information I was looking for regarding it. Apparently the WRC versions came with a "Intercooler spray" that is built onto the inside of the crashbar. This is where I got the info from:

http://www.gtfours.co.uk/what/wrc/list/wrc_goodies_list.htm - Apparently it was supposed to connect to the headlight spray unit, but that confuses me cause I thought that the head light spray was only offered on EDM model Celicas & wasen't the WRC versions only released in JDM?

The site mentioned above doesn't really explain enough to me about this feature. If there is someone who knows more can you please explain more about this? I mean there are three water injectors were does it spray the water too?

Here isa crash bar RPMGarage has for sale with the same feature: http://rpmgarage.com/new/detail/?tid=14894

Thanks for any info thrown my way.

There's actually 2 extra water pumps on the WW reservoir.

One is for the spray bar.

One is for W/I

Then there's the regular one for the windshield.

You don't have to remove the bumper to get the reservoir out. Just the wheel liner and remove the filler neck from the top.

There are 3 bolts securing it to the car.....one of them is kind of hidden....also make sure you disconnect all of the crazy hoses and wire looms.

I hooked mine up to an old camry battery and it worked like a champ. That spray bar pump can flow some water!


......and for those interested, the pressure switch that I think is a good fit on a stock boost level car is called a Hobbs-Honeywell (or just Hobbs) pressure switch. Normally open (N/O. NAPA sells them and they have one that is adjustable from 8-13 psi with the setting on it from the factory at 10 psi.



....although I'm not 100% convinced that a boost based system would be the most effective.

I've been slowly documenting my experiences with the setup....I'll try to have something concrete soon.

edited b/c you want a N/O switch not N/C
