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.

    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
