Hey guys,

Bout to get a fmic for my 34 GT-t and basicly going through all the options that are on the market these days. But i was just wondering if anyone has used a ARC intercooler kit before and what did you think of it. I see alot of the ARC kits on some pretty high performance skylines but i cant find much info on them at all. Does anyone know where you can buy these kits and how they rack up against the likes of HKS, Blitz and Trust???

While other manufacturers are turning to China to source their cores i'm pretty sure ARC intercoolers are still made by those trained in the arts of the samurai who only stop meditating to eat and forge intercooler cores once per year in the deepest darkest regions of Kyoto the true capital of Edo Japan.

i actually prefer intercoolers forged by warriors descended from the greatest of the men who fought during the meiji restoration period in post edo japan.

imo you will find no finer intercooler cores than ARC. for 3 main reasons: They have fluted inlets (many others do not), they allow great flow through the core so your radiator still gets airflow, and they are very light (massively important given their position in the car).

like ARC says: "the latest surroundings required by the times. ARC advances it with own sense and technology. Presenting extrodinary power to unknown car life" that should explain everything nicely.

so true

although i dont mind the hybrid kits, half the price and will do the job for someone that isnt chasing over 500rwhp

      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.
