I have been looking at FMIC kits for my R33, I have been told to stay away from the cheap kits, in particular Hybrid coolers. I have been tossing up between a Trust kit from Advan performance for $1400, or a HKS kit from Perfect Run for $1270, which is the better kit? Are there any others that anyone would recommend?

Sorry to hijack the thread.

What dramas did u run into dude?

...i was thinking of goin a china copy for about $600 full kit. (Maybe not though!)

Which front mount intercooler kit for a R32 will bolt up without causing issues,

eg. like having to trim the fan blades, etc, etc.

Yeah get one with a return pipe that hooks up to your stock pipes, such as the blitz kit. Not only conveniant, but no cutting into your chassis aswell for an intercooler hole. I dont know where you're located, but in VIC they have cracked down 100% on cutting hoels into you chassis for a cooler pipe, it now requires an engineer cert.

well, the piping kit didnt fix my car, it had to be rewelder in one spot :) also it fits the bonnet and fits the fan....

my friend pay $1400 or something and got a greddy kit and it kits without any problems its perfect... i pay $1000 and mine has soo maybe problems (this is going back about 2years now, so the pricers were higher then)

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
