just some info I can add. I was the one that bought this cooler for charlie in japan. it was BRAND NEW ex demo stock from a tuning shops display case in japan. it was the premium cooler offered by Apexi and at the time was considered the absolute BEST GTR cooler you could buy and cost nearly $4K new. It's 150mm thick FFS! It's the same cooler as used in the apexi drag cars and many other top level pro class GTRs in japan. when they went out of production the price of the few new ones left went up. this one was a real find after ages looking and charlie paid pretty good money for it. I remember the express freight on it alone was something like $400! There is nothing that will flow like this bad boy. And for the 5,000km use I would say is very conservative. I reckon charlie would have done no where near those kms with it on. come on charlie it's probably more like 500kms! Bear in mind you can never buy this cooler new, and ones in this condition left in the world you could probably count on one hand.

it's a steal for $1700 (or $1600). It's a must have for anyone with a big single street/drag GTR. honestly mate I would have thought this would be up for at $2,000 or so. it's worth every cent of that money.

as for the full forged, full counter crank. all i can say is oh momma! if you want a big revving circuit or drag GTR that is the main component you need, a full forged crank with full counter weights. it enables you to rev it smoothly and reliably to 10,000rpm. there is nothing like a big revving RB26.

Thanks for the info. I bought this cooler and I have it sitting here at the workshop ready to go onto my R32 GTR which is getting a built RB30/26 with the new HKS T62R turbo on a 6Boost manifold. Street driven, it will be a true RH9.

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
