This is a HKS DRAG (not the 100mm GT Series) series intercooler off my brothers R32. The core measures 610 x 305x 100 thick. This came off an R32 but should also fit an R33. For fitting to an R34 I would have to say that you will need to change over your intake sensor, other then that I am not sure what else would be needed for fitting.

HKS Drag series would have to be one of the best coolers on the market, more effiecient, superior design, higher quality materials, if its made by HKS, you are assured your money is well spent!

Denser intake tempretures from cooler intake temps means more torque and remember your intercooler cools even when you are off boost, this results in more power/torque off boost which promotes quicker combustion thus reducing lag. I hope I explained that correctly. Another thing commonly overlooked is the additional ignition timing and slightly leaner mixtures are possible. Both of these allow even more power.

This cooler is exclusivly used on the HKS DRAG GTR, still the only GTR that has run a 7 second 1/4 mile pass. If its good enough for them to use cooling 1400 odd Hp worth of turbo, its good enought for us ;-)

Here is a full boost article with noted changes from the HKS tube and fin to the HKS DRAG series. Bit of an interesting read.

$1399

Considering Greddy Tube and fin intercoolers sell on here for $1200 I think

my price is reasonable

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • 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
