I’m currently looking at an Intercooler for my R34 GTT. I just can’t resist those low low prices! (thanks China).

The three standout ones seem to be:

Just Jap - http://www.justjap.com/parts_nintercoolers.htm ($499 on the website)

Croydon Racing Developments - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=127373 ($349 forum price)

Hypergear - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=132082 ($350 forum price)

BTW I’d rather get one from one of these guys than eBay.

Are all of these pretty much the same? Are they the same?

Can any R34 owners comment on them? Piping line up OK?

Boy, I remember back in the day when you’d have to add a 1 in front of these prices...

Hey Dude, I think it all comes down to what power figure your chasing and if your car is going to be used for street, drift or drag...

For street use with a mild modded R33/R34... the $350 FMIC (bar/plate)kits will be more then enough... anything from 10 - 20 psi IMO

CRD are getting a new tube/fin FMIC kit from what i read in the traders section so you should keep an eye out for that... should be at a good price too..

Cheers,

Sarkis

Yeah, I'm not going to go over say 220-230rwkw. The question is, are these all just about as good as each other? Should I just go for the one closest to me to save on a bit of postage costs (and potential hassle)?

Yea those GK Tech FMIC kits have had some good feed back... Although the CRD tub/fin FMIC kit for $375 is comming soon... seems pretty close to the HYBRID GT Spec...

Any of those kits will do fine...

Cheers,

Go with the GKTech.

He's been trading on here longer than CRD, and was the first to price em so low at $349 :sick:

I've seen em...and if you were thinking of wasting money on a hybrid, go for the gktech and get basically the same thing without the price tag!

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
