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)

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
