Can you give any details about the condition of said cooler? Any major dings, what R series GT-R was it fitted to? Has it been flushed (ie. much oil vapour inside)?

Cheers

Brendan

I'm sorry if this contravenes forums rules... Moderators, please feel free to do what you will to to this post.

But I feel that this is not an HKS intercooler. It is unlike ANY HKS intercooler in their current range... It's a different design, and all current range HKS intercoolers are polished.

I may be wrong and this may be an older HKS release, but I guess I just don't want anyone to buy this as an HKS intercooler if it isn't one.

Cheers,

Andrew.

Merli---> This intercooler is on its way from japan as we speak, and you need to remember that there were a hell of a lot more intercooler models released in japan, then the rest of the world ever saw. Now I am going on information given to me by one of my japanese suppliers, and he hasnt let me down yet.

I think we can safely say by looking at it, that is probably isnt in their current range. By looking at it, it is probably a few years old. This in no way hampers its condition, and just means it is probably an older model.

I really dont appreciate you thrying to say that this isnt HKS, when I have clearly stated previously that it is.

and I have no reason to say a product is something that it is not. If I did, then my business wouldnt last very long, and I would not be able to continue to sponsor the Skylines Australia Forum.

Kristian,

I realise that you wouldn't appreciate my post. That's obvious. But please realise that it isn't a malicious post to try and stop you from your sale.

Rather, it is a post to try and stop somebody buying goods that aren't as advertised. We've had issues with people selling "HKS" or "NISMO N1" turbos on here before that have turned out (after some investigation into A/R ratios and photo evidence) that they were standard turbos. Can you imagine if you had bought those turbos under false advertising?

As I said in my post in this case, I AM NOT SURE, and this intercooler could very well be from an older range, but it is most definitely not from their current lineup.

Secondly, All HKS parts I have seen have HKS cast into the part, whether it be on the dump pipe, intercooler end tanks, exhaust, etc... Is this stamped/cast with HKS?

If this genuinely is an HKS product, you should be able to prove it (easily, since you are a business and all, and have access to much more data than the average bloke) and this thread can move on without any drama!

Cheers,

Andrew.

Not trying to start a biatch fight here and you seem to be bringing some good deals to the forums, but according to forum rules, shouldn't you be posting in the business section?

Merli---> It is a HKS 3 layer intercooler. It is currently in transit from Japan, as I stated earlier. When it gets here, I will take a photo of the HKS stamp on it.

It is quite simple. If someone buys it, and I deliver it to them, and it isnt HKS, they get their money back.

Excellent!

Thanks for not being a d1ck about this...

Hi Kristian

Wonder if you can give me a run down on it's condition now. Photos aren't quite big enough. Or is it best to wait for it to land? BTW, what's the ETA and what sort of $$$ to have shipped to Perth?

Thanks

Brendan

It is in good condition, no it hasnt been flushed, shipping to perth would be around $45. ETA, hopefully the container gets here, and unloaded before the docks shut down for christmas. otherwise, it will be first week in January.

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around.
