Well I just went and cleaned it and gave myself a bit of a surprise; it is actually a Trust cooler not the stocker. Obviously replaced in Japan before the car got here. Trust is stamped on the top and bottom.

However since this is much much bigger(and also worth alot more) than the stock 34 cooler I am going to make the price $250 ono and buyer pays postage.

Pictures linked, you can barely make out the Trust stamping due to the flash on the camera but if you look closely it is there.

I'm interested, but do you have a better pic it, one with the logo? That picture doesn't really do it justice if it is a Trust cooler. Also, what are the measurements..

Cheers.

I am very interested!

Measurements would be good so I know just how much bigger/thicker than my stock GTT one. Happy to pay freight. Not sure if it will bolt straight onto 33 but if it came off your 34 then it will fit mine 100% :)

Thanks

Ok heres some better pictures showing the stamping on the top and bottom. Ignore the dirty garage carpet. :)

Size of the core is 240mm long x 190mm high x 100mm thick.

Unfortunately thats a bit of a "How long is a piece of string?" question.

As it is a much thicker core you should expect some power gain, and less heat soak, however the exact % will vary for each car.

The intercooler is not the limiting factor in how much boost you can run, its the turbo and all the support systems. For reference though, I was running 13psi on it with no issues.

Gtrghostdog,

Yes the cooler would be more than adequate for that setup. You will need the short 90 degree pipe and a silicon reducer and two clamps as well. These are included in the price.

But Razorsharp is in the process of putting a deposit down so if that falls through I'll let you know.

the IC should come with a small bracket that bolts to the rail, the 90 elbow, the rubber/silicon hose (AFAIK it is not a reducer and is rubber) and the various bolts and nuts. the IC bolts straight up to an R33 with a bit of fussing around. ducting the bugger takes a bit time but worth the extra effort.

Hey pushhead, did you have to modify anything or was it a direct fit?

Also, how much is postage to SA?

Can you find out asap, as I am quite keen.

for an R33 GTS-T with M-Spec front bar, I did not have to modify anything at all. Remove stock intercooler and replace it directly with this. I haven't dyno my car to compare it with the stockies but I can tell you it felt like the turbo spool faster. I'm very surprised that no one actually jump in and buy this quickly. For $250 this is too cheap seriously. dont want to spoil anything but errr these cost just abit less than a trust front mount assuming trust front mount are $1500 new these go for $1100 roughly new.

I was next in line if the deal with Razorsharp falls through!

I am very keen to buy this and have the money ready and waiting!!!

Gtrghostdog would be after me technically.

    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat
