as said above it isnt a real trust intercooler.

Also u cannot bolt this up, u need to get intercooler piping made for it, u need to make mounts for the intecooler, u mostlikely need to cut up the front bumper.

So add another 600 for the install and thats what it will cost u.

Just out of curiosity, how do you guys know it is not a genuine Trust cooler?

I RECOMMEND ASKING THE SELLER FOR THE TRUST PART NUMBER - HE SHOULDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM GIVING YOU THIS. YOU CAN THEN CROSS REFERENCE PART NUMBER TO SEE FIRSTLY IF IT IS GENUINE AND SECONDLY IF IT IS SUITABLE FOR YOU- THIS IS THE SAFEST WAY. IT'S TOO LATE AFTER YOU'VE BOUGHT IT, DOESN'T MATTER HOW CHEAP, IF YOU CAN'T USE IT, IT'S EXPENSIVE.

THERE ARE SEVERAL OPTIONS FOR INTERCOOLERS, ADD STATES THIS ONE FOR DRAG OR DRIFT !

CHEERS

JADE

that ad just screams dodgy

look in the for sale section. R32-GTS is selling a hybrid copy, or what ever u want to call them.. 600x300x100 core now for $550!

Once i get more cash together i'll more than likely purchase one similar as i know i can get them for $600 any time i want.

i hate ebay for the fact there are ppl like this who scheme and make up hopeless ads.

How a proper GReddy intercooler should look like (although like Driver said - GRex/GReddy/Trust are all the same company):

How a Hybrid intercooler looks like:

Then look at the Ebay ad.

I saw that ad earlier this week..got excited..then suspicious..

Look at the end tanks, and the holes on the top.

It looks to me as if it's a Hybrid copy, with 'Trust' stamped on it.

meh.. i bought a brand new hybrid copy cooler for $400.. looks really good quality for the price. I can't really see the difference of quality between it and my old HKS cooler worth about $800 to be honest. Time will tell i guess.

Always be suspicious of ebay and "brand" items. If you want cheap stuff, and not too fussed, then go ebay.. otherwise stay clear.

THE SHEER SIZE ...WILL ASTONISH YOU

:( .. thats what i say to all the girls too..doesn't usually work :)

thanks for the help ppl guess i wont buy it then and just get the one myfriends..brother $1k installed

its one of those universal coolers.....its imported from taiwan.....

are these any good ?

its size is 800x300x76.....also does size matter when u get a cooler like the bigger the better ? or will a 600x300x76 cooler do the same job ?

its been fitted on a r32 and so far no problems

Do a search. A lot of people have used the Hybrids with no problems, same with the Trust.

In the end it comes down to personal choice. Someone might swear by Japanese parts, others will say parts from other localities are just as good if not better.

If you're looking to save some money, then a Hybrid might be the way to go.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
