Hey wolverine, how much was the FMIC, and did you put it in yourself or get them to install it? Looks like a nice, neat job, too.
the guys at plazmaman installed it and they used this as a test mule for a kit they will offer.

the price i paid may not relate to the retail cost for the kit since i was the first one.

i have a plazmaman FMIC on my R33 and i found the service and "care factor" very high with plazmaman after i ran into some difficulties installing the kit (not due to any fault of the kit). the patience of oyay & alex and their desire to ensure i was completely happy should be used as a model by every other workshop.

in addition, i asked them to look at making a replacement pipe from the afm to the turbo although if looks to be a complex pipe that might have too high a cost to go into any production unless there is enough demand from skyline/stagea owners.

i imagine the kit is available if anyone is looking for an alternative to the other kits on the market.

Found the kit HERE.

Sorry to say dude, but for

Price: $2,095.00

I say move on.

For me to custom fit, supply a GTR cooler, supply stainless pipes, custom get the pipes made and fitted was only $1250, and thats with a core that i KNOW flows 300rwkw.

As above, Greddy/TRUST kits are ~1200 delivered too. I think he replaced that upper pipe for no reason either, why replace something that is stock when its working perfectly.

I dont deny the quality of the kits though, they look really marvelous.

thanks AMS, their workmanship is excellent. their cores are extremely efficient. they spent a long time with the R&D getting the internal fin design spot on to provide high rates of cooling up to the point of pressure drop. at the HP levels i hope to be getting it is overkill but i know it will work and that leaves squeezing the maximum performance out of the other parts the next thing to worry about.

    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
    • But if you had to go bury a body in the forest, would you not put that in the boot? Most of them are >=90kg these days.
    • That could easily make a horrible noise. +1 to the benefits of: a) Disclosing all relevant information when asking questions such as these, b) Actually going out and having a look at your own car, seeing as you're the one there, and we're not!
