yeh i have, no problems at all once you send them the money. took a week from when i send the money to when i got the intercooler, if you want the hybrid 660 300 75 then its the best price at the moment. if you look at www.powerdigger.com.au then you will see what it normally sells for.

Did you go through the Ebay secure thingy to pay them or did you just Direct deposit or credit card it? cos for me, that's a lot of money if they decide not to send the cooler.... if you know what I mean.

As for the price from power digger, I have seen them here in Adelaide for the same price in AutoBahn.....

i went to the buy now tab thinking (pay by credit card)but no they will e-mail you with payment details once they get the order or reply from ebay. i got feed up and ended up sending them a money order for 720 postage and handling.

I know its hard to say how much better theyd be, especially considering the vested interest that ARE have in the explanation of their cores and end tanks on their site. However ARE have spent alot of time and money researching their end tanks and own the mouldings for their unique castings. And alot of what they say does make sense. Its good reading, honest :)

I don't wanna diss the Hybrids, theyre still bloody good value. In fact ill take back my comment above :D However most people might not be aware that ARE's previously expensive pricing compared to the Hybrids has recently been revised.

Might be another option for people to consider.

I know that size isn't everything but....

ARE: 520 x 300 x 75 for $878

Hybrid: 660 x 300 x 75 for $690

Not that I have anything against ARE, I've heard that they are really good coolers, but for a stock turbo, it's not like the cooler is going to get pushed to its limits...

A.R.E are good cooler thats a given but i bought the hybrid super monster cooler (600x300x76) off flyn perfornamce direct very very good to deal with indeed answered any questions i had sytraight away...... the cooler on my car is supporting boost up to about 1.5 bar (22psi roughly) and had helped me make 275 rwhp with a shitty standard ecu with air fuels all over the place easilly be tuned to over 300rwhp at like 16 psi...... overall i reccomend these coolers and also reccomend flying performance aswell....

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
