Hi,

Im not too far away from purchasing an intercooler for my car. Im considering getting it through greenline motorsports and they quoted me $1,411 for a trust kit including shipping.

I wanted to know if any of you guy's have had to pay any hidden costs when the item arrives here?

Is the cost of the cooler and shipping all I have to worry about?

Thanks

Mark

going by nenguns and greenlines prices which are all in yen, the prices are differrent every day due to the exchange rate and also if you ask for a quote the price will be different again so 1411 trust kit means nothing, i would asume he is talking about the trust V-SPL which is 600x240x76 which is slightly smaller than the hks type s being 600x301x65 i just went for the bigger one and you cant usually go wrong with hks

its all preference and what you can afford

Its luck of the draw whether you get jibbed with import taxes really, some people cop it some people dont?

I'll also be getting a V-SPL 300/276/76 in a month or two, at the moment its 71,000Y/$920AUS ex shipping from nengun, Greenlines prices are a tad more.

Let us know how you go?

Thankyou so much guys for all your helpfull feedback, I will get on the Nengun web site and give those guys an e-mail, and if the hks one is a lil bigger why not go for it I have the impression that their parts are a bit more superiour.

Thanks again guys!!!!

    • +1. Good thing is people wont tailgate you for a while
    • If you have a RB25DET NEO AWD motor, you will need this: https://www.hioctanedirect.com/ASR-RB26-RWD-Street-Comp-6.5L-Sump-Suit-R32/33/34-and-VL It is made for the AWD motor, but makes it fit a RWD setup and gives you a new pickup. Just one thing, the pickup sits quite forward, compared to a conventional RB25DET RWD motor. This may or may not have contributed to my previous AWD -> RWD shitting the bed at the track.
    • My car is also flex tuned. It's worth mentioning it (the LS1 ECU) has a 1D table for E85 addition and just uses the ethanol stoich part as the second point of reference. It also as a 3D timing map for Ethanol adjustment. You would think this isn't enough but it works pretty damn well. That said, I wouldn't want it in turbo application. It's like lifting non-natty, or taking meth. It gets you unrealistic results that break down more things going forward. If people used it to make the same amount of power they do on 98 then it'd be one thing. But people use it, crank it up to eleventy million PSI, it doesn't knock - but it pushes the point of failure to another, more expensive thing to break. Every time I see someone make 280kw on 98 and 350kw on E85 on the same equipment I just cry a bit and really wish they would just stay on 98 in that exact scenario. It's bad for you. 
    • This is kind of what I was thinking but the temp sender wire and the two pressure switch wires run through the starter subharnes and I eliminated the two pressure switch wires completely.  @GTSBoy I have a can gauge with unusually bright warnings should the oil pressure fall so the factory light isn't needed. I need to dig out my wiring diagram and see if I can sort this out.
    • It's a valid point. And it is doable with the Nistune. But I'm not inclined to flex it the way Nistune does - certainly not on a Neo ECU. They're already pernickety enough to tune just one one fuel. And of course, I'm not that interested in putting in a Link or similar, on a daily. With the stock ECU, stock looking turbo, etc etc, I still stand a chance of surviving a run-in with the plod. Last time it went over the pits (which was for the transplant, for because of a run-in with the plod), the Nistuned ECU did not even raise an eyebrow. They want to see a stock ECU running the engine, and they are happy to see it do so without the check engine light** on. Never mind that the Nistune is necessary to make the stock ECU work in a different chassis without ABS, TCS, etc. **And they actually provoke the CEL to come on by disconnecting the AFM, to prove that the globe hasn't been pulled!
