Cheap Intercoolers Wots The Go?

[Munkyb0y]

no i havent gone any route. still considering this cooler, or r34 smic.

i find even my stock r33 cooler keeps up fine, except on stinking hot days.

maybe you'll sell me yours...

just jap sell a fmic with the inlet and outlet on the same side. u just have to make ur own piping to mate with the stock pipes. i was considering this option myself. from memory it's around $200, no piping incl.

cheers man

i had a look at that one but looks like the pipes r on the wrong side, correct me if i'm wrong, but yeah prefer to have the pipes on same side, shld b heaps easier to install that way, does anyone know of any like that or does anyone have one on their car?

u say ur stock one goes alright hey, how much boost?

Hi guys,

How long does it take (on average) to fit the Cooling Pro kit from Just Jap to a R33 GTST. Has anyone has this installed professionally? How much did it cost?

Cheers,

you can turn the cooler around to have the pipes on the passenger side. they work both ways.

i'm only running 10psi, with zorst and pod.

These cheap coolers may be able to make "X" amount of power, but how many of those people, have taken there cheapo cooler off, wacked on a branded, more expensive, better built unit, to find that the inlet charge is now, even cooler, and even more power is able to be made?

A cheap cooler will do you for low power, but I wouldn't want to push one in high power.

hey guys

am thinkin about gettin a greddy FMIC so im just wondering what the difference is between

that and a cheaper version (justjap)....

i have been quoted a medium sized greddy FMIC (not sure on figures) piped and fitted for 1g

am i better off doin that or picking up a cheaper FMIC.

thanx

I've made over 270rwkw's using one of these cores and there's plenty of cars pushing even more power with these cores. Probably the best value for money mod you could do on an import.

So, you would deem 480HP at the wheels ant 18psi as "low power" ?

They are a core

They do the same job

The piping might be cheaper, and the welds might not be as good but results speak louder than words

Same goes for the whole JDM exhaust vs Local made exhaust debate

monkey boy, get an FMIC dude, you dont know how crap the SMIC is till you get a real core that flows well and cooles the intake charge... seriously those smic cop heat soke in no time, your blower works overtime to pump air through it after a little open throttle you start loosing power in major ways not to mention nock and over fueling from various issues.

I had them and once going to a nice MUCH free'er flowing FMIC it really did the trick, not a single nock or backfire since and there ar !FAR! better FMIC's out htere than mine certainly.
