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.

Red17

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....

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
