Well Now that I have it anyway I was thinking that it couldn't be to hard to adapt it to the 285 anyway, just have to cut some of the heatsinks to fit. Anyone tried to adapt this to the 285 got any tips?? (sorry for the bad spelling, I was in a hurry)

It fit on my 285 just fine, and I don't see why the main cooler it self would not fit on any 285, unless you have a radically changed PCB design.

The cooler itself fits, it's just the ram/volt regulator heatsinks that don't. don't know how important it is to have those mounted?

If you force fan speed to 80-100% (still almost dead silent on the GTX 280 cooler(, it's not absolutely necissary, but still highly recommended.

If I don't OC it and just want a silent cooling on it, could I get away with mounting the cooler without some of the heatsinks, and if so witch parts could I try not to put sinks on.
__________________I saw that the stock cooler didn't have any extra heatsinks on the volt regulator. I don't have any spare heatsinks lying around so I'd have to cut the big one that came with the kit to fill in the missing ones. any ideas?

If you aren't OCing, the only thing you really need additional cooling on is the NVIO chip. The only reason I have everything sinked is because my card is volt modded and overclocked.
__________________A single ram sink (or a quater of the ram sink that comes with the AC) will do, in your case. *EDIT* This is the NVIO chip, if you didn't already know:
