Thanks guys I'm also doing a couple of slight mods that should make it betterer too, including a 'flap' that the N/A Guys can bend up and the turbo guys can leave down.

not a lot really, but they do make things look a bit tidier. -------------------- '99 Altezza RS200Z- project car

For turbo its irrelevant unless you have a bonnet ram air duct and an air box such as the ones you have on the stock NA set-up (and what I will have in the future). It does however allow a bit of cold air to flow over the engine and the turbo but its not that great big of a deal.
For a NA however it provides a huge benifit for allowing you to use the bonnet air duct without sucking in hot air from the radiator when you are in traffic and not going more then 20KM/H. (That is of course you have blocked the throttle body pneumatic actuator that bypasses the air duct). For myself Im using it to block view to my intercooler |

Hot air, ah yes that makes much sense for the factory setup. Creating a cold air intake will be a good thing, unsure why that didn’t occur to me |

Calling it a radiator cooling panel is a good example of Japanese engrish. Provides no benefit to the radiator at all. In fact (when the fans aren't going) it traps hot air in the front of the radiator because it prevents the hot air rising out of the radiator! (although that effect would be so minimal it doesn't matter lol)

No it doesnt have a fan, it just diverts hot air from the radiator away from the intake, thats it...
