Ok, let me get this out of the way first. I am well aware that the standard intercoolers on R34 GTRs flow very well and can handle in the vicinity of 370-380 awkw before they become too restrictive and an upgrade is needed. As it stands, my car is making power just shy of that and with some upgrades coming in the near future, I will be looking to upgrade my intercooler too. The car will not be a high-powered drag car (by high powered I mean a 500+ awkw monster) but it will be a super-street car I currently have two options bearing in mind cost and relative performance gains. I have heard and read everywhere that ARC cores prove the best upgrades in terms of response, flow, heat soak and pressure drop, but you pay dearly for this gain. So the options I've narrowed down to are the TRUST Spec-R HG which measures 302x710x115mm, and the HKS Type R which measures 700 x 304 x 103mm. I can get both for around $1200-1300 at the moment. Does anyone have experience with either of these and what are your thoughts on using them for power in the range of 380-410 awkw? My main concern is decreased response and pressure drop with the larger TRUST core. What should I expect? Also, with the 115mm thick TRUST core, will I need to cut away at my front bar to make it fit??

So I have an R34 GTT with many mods: Apexi PFC w/ commander/datalogit, GReddy Profec Type S EBC, GReddy Intake manifold and fuel rail, RC 1000cc injectors, Massive Precision Turbo, Tial WG, FMIC, HKS SSQV, Aeromotive FPR, AEM Wideband, 3" Turbo-back Apexi exhaust, NGK BKR7ES-11's regapped at .030. On to my problem...... I've had the car now for about a month and a half and have been constantly working out the bugs. First was a new center section for the turbo due to an apparently recent rebuild that didn't include a thorough hot tanking and left bits of metal shavings in the oil feed line that led to blown seals and bearings. Fortunately it doesn't seem to have harmed any other parts of the engine yet, I have ran several quarts of oil through in an effort to remove the machining leftovers. Next came proper PCV/ catch can installation and hose routing seeing as how it only had valve cover breather filters and an unhooked PCV valve, as well as an un-plumbed AAC valve that was sucking in unmetered air. Also replaced the O2 sensor and saw a dramatic increase in fuel mileage as AFR's. However, once all of these things were replaced and repaired I noticed that the car did not want to pull as hard as before and that even though the idle was more stable at 1000-1100rpms it did not want to stay running if I let it idle for too long. And as of now the car won't start at all. I've checked all of the usual suspects: AFM, New plugs AGAIN, no vac leaks, fuel pump is working great and have great fuel pressure. I am thinking it is my CAS, but not sure because if I take it out and spin it I can hear the fuel pump run and the injectors clicking. BUT when watching the FC Commander it only shows the car getting 4-7 degrees of timing under cranking. As well as when hooked up to Datalogit it wants to sit at 6000 load cell also while cranking. Im not sure why it is not getting more ignition timing while I am cranking it. My tuner is even scratching his head as to why the car won't start. Im guessing part of it is due to not being able to see the start up cranking ignition tables on the Datalogit screen and even by altering the whole map to 40 degrees it still only read 4-7 on the commander!?! Oh and the boost control kit setting is turned off as well as I have re-initialized the Com twice and re-loaded the map to no avail. Sorry for my super long first post on the site, but I am at my wits end on this one and USA forum support is a little lacking when it comes to this one. . Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi guys, For sale here is a complete GReddy GREX Oil Cooler and Filter Relocation Kit to suit RBs with the Thermostat fitted in the oil filter block. Was fitted on my R32 GTR and will also suit all other RB equipped cars. The kit has an upgraded oil cooler core which is an English made Serck Speed Racing item, 44 row, and is brand spanking new, never fitted, and all fittings are now upgraded to Speedflow -10 with Speedflow braided lines. The GReddy adapter that fits in place of the factory oil filter is also only 1,000km old. The kit has the filter block mounted around the front drivers side, with lines running across to the passenger side to the cooler. So plenty of length for mounting flexibility. The kit will also include a custom made aluminium air deflector box that fits to the core, which ensures all air passing through the front bar goes to the cooler. May require slight modification to suit your car. Located in Melbourne, happy to post. Will get more pics when im near the car/engine next. Pic of core fitted is not the one that will come with the kit but same dimensions. The one that is part of the kit is brand new never fitted. $1000 Cheers, Mat. 0400 558 030

Hey fellas, Got a TRUST GReddy Front Mount cooler kit for sale. Suits R32 Skyline GTSt. This is a stealth return flow type cooler. Requires NO HOLES to be cut in your car. Fantastic, legal piece of kit when used with an airbox. Tube and fin cooler core measures 520mm x 250mm x 70mm. Piping fits directly to standard piping setup. Some fins are slightly bent as expected with any second hand cooler, BUT it still works VERY WELL. No excess oil anywhere. Good enough to support 296kw with a RB25, 18psi and Hiflow R34 turbo - true story. Proven. Located in Melbourne but happy to post. In box ready to go. $350 Cheers, Mat. 0400558030

Hi All, Up for sale is a GReddy (Trust) V-SPL FMIC to suit S13/180SX SR20DET. This is the real deal MADE IN JAPAN V-SPL tube and fin kit. The ones that came out back in the day before they started to push out the cheaper cores like the LS-Spec and M-Spec bar and plate, which I believe are manufactured in Taiwan or thereabouts Here's a little extract I got from frsport regarding the M-Spec... "GReddy's M spec intercooler kit is very similar to the older RSPL/VSPL kits out in the market. This kit was made for an efficient budget setup with all required hardware and piping. Works great for vehicles pushing less than 300RWHP. At power levels greater than that, we recommend the VSPL or the RSPL kit." The kit I have is in great condition. The fins are all straight and the core is as new. No dents or damage whatsoever. The original kit came with rubber reducers and joins, but I have since replaced them all with genuine GReddy silicone reducers and joins, and they weren't cheap!!! Only reason I've taken it off the car is due to upgrading to an ARC intercooler. I'm after $500 picked up in Burwood East VIC, given that I paid $1250 back in the days. The LS-Spec and M-Spec are going for around $500+ as well, although they are polished core and a cheaper version of the V-SPL. Can post, but plus freight. Currently off the car and packed in the original box ready to be picked up or posted. The kit has been kept in great condition, and even have the original box. Shows how anal I am :lol: Will get better pictures up in the coming days. Contact/sms zero four two one one two one eight one eight for any interest. Cheers, Andy

Hi All, Another bit off my car up for sale is a GReddy Type S BOV. It's in perfect working order and will hold 20+ PSI with ease. It's a plum back so won't draw too much attention and doesn't have any spring mods at all. It also includes the adaptor plate and gaskets to bolt straight up to an R33 Gtst intake system. I'm after $190 for the BOV with adaptor plate and gaskets. I'm in Melbourne (Macleod) but will post at buyers expense. Do some checks and you'll find they're in demand including the adaptor.
