Shane,

You can not go wrong with an intercooler upgrade ( so long as you're getting something good ). Because the FMIC will cool your engine's intake charge better than a stock cooler, you will get better fuel economy and more power for the fuel you use.

The only possible down side I can think of is that the responsiveness of the turbo may deminish slightly.

Just my 2cents :D

I was hoping to hook this kit up myself, but just noticed my aftermarket BOV position & piping, and the piping required for this kit? I wouldn't know what to do with the BOV and hooking it back up again, would it be useable again? or back to stock?

hmm I want in, but when do you need the full money by?

im in brisbane, and have a r33 with stock everything, and whats he main reason from 70mm to 90mm?

I have a custom paint job also, so if I came to you on a weekend would I be able to get it done properly? and how long does it take to get to castle hill from brisbane?

Zoix: you do realise that Castle Hill is in Sydney right?

Hell if you want to drive 12 hours for a fitting job im sure UAS can help you out.

now sorry I'm from north west qld and only just moved to brisbane.

I thought it may be near tweed heads. Guess I'm wrong. but since i loose my license shortly fo speeding(didnt know I was) well I'll ahve to get delievers, but I have 65 months to install :rolleyes:

Damn website host playin around again. (Just changed our hosting companies and having dramas with them). Sorry.

Had a couple of airboxes arrive last week that were unfortunately already spoken for and sent out to hungry customers. John has spoken recently to the inefficient (but extremely good) supplier that makes these boxes up for us to let him know that there is urgent orders for them.

Unfortunately not kik-ass. We have already orderd a 1st batch of these coolers which are starting to come through. Offer still stands to end of this month though.

My order was placed a couple of weeks ago. My deposit hasn't been debited from my VISA yet so hopefully my order still stands. I'm still aiming to complete the payment on Friday 25th July....get paid on Thursday. Please PM me with any details needed.

    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
    • The fact that US/JDM plates actually fit the skyline bumpers properly is a big, big thing for me as they are the correct dimensions. Annoyingly you can't opt for a normal plate (or plate combination) in that size. You have to make up your own one, and at that point you'd still know it wasn't randomly assigned. 
    • Well, really, that's any ECU, because it's not so much the ECU that the tuner connects to, but a laptop that's connected to the ECU. You have to have the tuning software installed locally. The "remote" part is essentially just remote desktop (RDP) or VNC type access. Nevertheless, if you're looking to upgrade, then you're immediately in the Haltech/Link territory, both of which can be done by any number of competent tuners here in Oz. But without a dyno, you'll definitely also need a wideband O2 sensor fitted, and you'll probably be relying on "auto" tuning a bit, where you drive it around under various loads and then apply the corrections that the ECU learns (basically applying the fuel trims that the ECU has to do to correct the mixtures). Tuning the timing is a little harder. It can be difficult to trust the old OEM knock sensors on RBs, so it is definitely best to have someone who knows what they're listening for, with knock ears (a piezo microphone connected to the engine, and and little amp and headphones so the listener can hear the angry men with hammers who live in the engine). That is more difficult to do remotely, and I suspect the only sane way is to be quite conservative on timing. But that's OK. You're probably waaaaay better off with conservative timing where you are. What is the fuel situation? 98RON available? Or low grade jungle juice?
    • I see your point, I didn't think too deep into it, was purely focused on the price. There's no bad blood between myself and GSM, they acknowledged the price was cheaper else where and at the time couldn't match it.
