FYI before you buy that. That is a piping kit only, no intercooler in the set.

as stated in the link:

* Complete chrome polish aluminium piping kit ONLY. This does not include the CORE

Read the link good before you invest in it especially ebay items.

For $199 it would have to be pipes only OR the shittiest product known to man, you get what you pay for and if you spend that kind of money on a brand new cooler kit I reckon you will end up with a nice paperweight.

Intercoolers are pretty cheap, mine is a "coolingPro" intercooler which was $400 for the kit and its worked well enough for me.

just jap have some, might be cheaper if you search around other places though

Big difference from $199 too $400 though mate! And have you seen pics of what happens to cheap chinese coolers when you feed decent boost through them? LOL

Depends on which ling long yum cha spec, HDi is ling long, but decent enough for most cars doing about 300kW.

I've currently using a HDi pos cooler with some sex spec plazmaman piping, let's see how it performs once I give it some boost.

im also looking at replacing my front mount. currently running a 600x300x76 but the core has been damaged. its a cheap china one thats one currently on there.

new combo is 6 boost manifold, gtx3076, 50mm turbosmart external gate, plazmaman plenum.

dont think i can justify spending $700-800 on a plazmaman cooler so what are the cheaper alternatives? just jap or is there something reasonaly priced inbetween which is better?

Pot luck with cheapies. Mine cost me $50 brand new 600*300*76, running 18psi from a GT3076r no problems so far. Before that came up I was saving for a Just Jap "Monster type" 600*300*100 and for I think $240 or however much they were/are, they were the thickest core for so cheap that I found. With the thinner core for a little cheaper being proven over 300rwkw as said, it seems like the best cheap option.

      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.
