They are. I can't comment on teh design but people should ask themself do you think they would risk there reputation over a cheaper alternative :P

And update on deleivary i called and i've been asured they will be ready for pick up on tuesday.

As i said i can't 100% say the design is different i havn't compared the tow, but just becuase they look the same doesnt' mean they are. For starters the piping is different and the joiners for the piping, so thats part of teh kit making it "different" not exactly the same. A company like Trust/Greddy arn't exactly going to walk in to a company making these cheapies and wack a badge on them. Yes they are not Japanese made hence to keep the costs down, but on that note they are made to Trust/Greddy specs (as they woudlnt' want to risk there name over a cheaper alternative) i wouldn't confidently say that a company like Trust/Greddy would nto have wacked there badge on some no name brand cooler and hopped for the best, they would of been designed with the intent to target a market dominated by cheaper no frills coolers. So with that in mind they would of looked at manifacturing them abroad (out of Japan) and thats why they are only rated up to 270-300kw. They are perfect for what the are, it all comes down to preference, save a few $100 on a no name brand, or pay the bit extra for a trusted brand. It's like that with everything.

Nav2k you might find more info at the website or even email them.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
