the core is the same as the china coolers but the end-tanks are piping and trust items.

I personally buy it. ive have a china kit on my car and now ive upgrade to a trust kit and the difference is huge the piping fits perfectly and does not hit my bonnet or fan and the over-all quality of the kit is very good.

the reason why its cheaper than the other trust kit is because the core uses a bar and plate design compare to the other ones which are tube and fine

everything these days are made in Taiwan/china

even the sticker that say "MADE IN USA' are made in china

nothing is wrong with the product if it is made there

remember at one stage made in japan was like saying made in china

i dont think my Hks type s intercooler was made in china.

you will be surprises the amount of produces which are made in china, its purely to do with the cost of manufacturing. As its is cheaper to make something in China than USA/Australia/Japan etc etc

If you are worried about the ebay item being a genuine M Spec intercooler, there should be Greddy stamped in white on the top of the cooler but no where else. I should know I have Greddy M Spec intercooler. Some of the other Greddy coolers have "Greddy" stamped on the end tanks and possibly some of the piping but I don't know for sure

      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.
