Why are they called 'Just Jap Type 1' intercoolers?

Are these not hybrid ones or something?

What people dont seem to realise is all these cheap intercoolers come from the same factory and are basically the exact same intercooler. Hybrid was one of the first people to bring these cheap coolers to Australia and they simply slapped a badge on the top and painted a logo on the core and bingo!

So the other coolers sold by companies like Just Jap arent "Hybrid copies" at all, they are the same thing.

Now Flying International have stated that JustJap are selling copies of hybrid intercoolers.  LOL!

I've replied back stating that hybrid intercoolers are just a cheap chinese intercoolers.  All these hybrid intercoolers are, are just intercoolers with the name/logo 'Hybrid' slapped on the top of them.

Now a-waiting their response to see what they're goin to say.

By the way...  the information about hybrid intercoolers that i stated above was given to me by the guy i talked to on the phone from JustJaps.

by all means try and get an answer you are happy with, but i would suggest try and use some discretion in what exactly you say as it's no good starting a bun fight with yourself in the middle.

For the record i have dealt with Ray from Flyn before (over 3 years ago when they were just starting) and was very happy with his service and product then.

I have also dealt with just jap and have always been happy there. I was lucky enough to receive one of their intercoolers as a gift and i must say the quality of it can't be faulted. I can't speak of the performance yet as i haven't fitted it, but it does look very good.

mate, i never said you were trying to start a fight i was just saying to be a little considerate in how you deal with these companies. of course they are both defensive of their product and to email Flyn saying:

I've replied back stating that hybrid intercoolers are just a cheap chinese intercoolers.  All these hybrid intercoolers are, are just intercoolers with the name/logo 'Hybrid' slapped on the top of them.

is bound to get them to fire up.

In no way am I trying to start any fights or step on any toes.  It was however Flying International that have made the statement to me that JustJap are the ones selling copies of Hybrid intercoolers.

Flying International have also replied to another email of mine and they've also now stated that Hybrid Australia are sueing JustJap for selling copies.

After now being put in the middle of this dispute by Flying International.  I'm thinking just pissing both of these guys off and going and buying a $1,200 blitz or hks intercooler and kit.

Wow, your a clown.

Id be extremely careful before you repeat conversations, particularly legal conversations on the internet.

Hybrid doesnt have exclusive rights from the factory in China that produces intercoolers so no, they cant sue Just Jap, or the 50 other businesses that sell the same intercoolers.

If Just Jap were selling their kits as "Hybrid" kits, then you would have a point, but they arent so I would shut up before you land yourself in hot water :)

I was only going by what Flying International had said.

However, I've deleted my post above.

Fact that Flyn have even stated that JustJap are being sued by Hybrid goes to show what Flyn will do to get the interested clients in JustJap to go to them in my opinion.

So, now question is.... Is the Intercoolers that JustJap sell hybrid ones but just not labled 'Hybrid' on them?

If not labeled, are just logo'd 'JustJap' or is there no logo on them?

Mate, you dont seem to understand. They are all the SAME INTERCOOLER

it just so happens that Hybrid puts their badge on them to market them as a "Hybrid" product

Can you see a logo on the Just Jap intercoolers?

Dude... I'm only asking. I only have an understanding as to how these intercoolers work but not much knowledge of the branding between each of them nor what a hybrid intercooler would do compared to a hks intercooler would do.

I'm looking at purchasing some gear from Flying International (they're based in Sydney, NSW) and was wondering if anyone has had any dealings with these guys before?

http://www.flyn.com.au/

Wanting to purchase a Hybrid intercool kit from them. 

But since their are copies of hybrid intercooler's around, I'm wondering if these hybrid intercoolers that they sell are copies although they do state that these are 100% real.

Anyone know anything to confirm this for me?

I got mine from them Hybrid super monster intercooler came with fitting instructions all fitted up fine and works well. It has a hybrid plate on top of it I guess its genuine.

Mate its your decision

If you want to question each company as to why they have the prices they do, and why they market in the way they do then go ring them.

:P

Its just an intercooler, and at the end of the day, you will not see any real world difference in performance between either of those kits.

By the way if you look at that Just Jap forum special page, I would say the reason they sell a type 1 and type 2 kit is because they have two difference styles available and clearly its the easiest way to differenciate them.

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
