I have one and I cannot fault its performance. Quality of the piping could be better though, and you may require some modification of either the kit or your car parts to fit properly (eg in the R33 some trimming of the radiator fan blades may be needed to fit the piping).

You only get what you pay for. Look at the material and build quality of Jap kits (e.g. Blitz, HKS, Trust) and compare it to a $500 eBay job. It will speak for itself.

Then again, the eBay job might be sufficient for what you want. Always modify your car to a purpose or you'll get lost in a sea of parts. Work out where you want the car to be when you finish, and plan your mods around that. No use putting a top notch intercooler on if you dont plan on running some serious boost.

I have a Just Jap cooler, almost all my friends have Just Jap coolers, never seen one of them with a problem, and they seem to cool just fine.

That being said none of us are running huge horsepower or huge boost, so I can't comment on that. For dailydriving cars or cars with basic mods I don't see how you can go past them.

On my old R33, i was pushing 211rwkw on the std turbo, with a justjap type 1 kit. Had the kit for well over a year and held up very nicely. It also was used for trackwork with no dramas.

Installed many of these kits for people on SAU, and definately a value for money kit.

No need to pay the famous brands for their marketing and its not always "what you get is what you pay for"

Definately the kit is a easy 10/10 :)

the problem with the delta fin is there will be more damage to the fins if a rock bounced up and hit it because of the design, but thats me nit picking.. has anyone had any experience with the delta fin because im thinking of getting one.

Have you seen them up close? I dropped by there yesterday and was having a look at one for my R32 and took some pics, let me find them and I will post them up.

VERY nice looking intercooler!

    • There is a LOT of stuff that can be done, it all depends on how much time and money you want to spend on doing in.  Not all ECUs will be able to do it, and the more control you need the more time and knowledge needs to be put into making it work.  If you're willing to spend the time and money and have the right hardware and skills involved there's a lot that can be done. 
    • I am impressed with all this level of adjustment. I didn't expect all this possibility
    • Correct.  In the case of the 500kw dyno plot I showed you the car actually runs two boost control solenoids for boost control and a 5psi wastegate spring.  It allows me to control how much boost pressure is applied to both sides of the wastegate valve at any point and fairly accurately control boost target as a result. I've tuned it so that it's able to target anywhere from 5psi to 25psi depending on what's needed.  The target tables I've set up in that car are Gear vs RPM, so every gear has potential for a different boost (and torque) curve.   First and second gear have quite low boost targets, third gear actually has different target boost all the way through the rpm range as it's a stock RB25 gearbox - the boost targets have been chosen to maintain a peak of 600nm (what the owner has set as the maximum torque he's happy with putting through the stock 3rd gear) but it carries that to the rev limiter.   The boost curve to achieve that is something of a ramp up, then hold, then ramp up again and the power curve looks more like a flat line haha.  
    • so you can decrease or increase the boost depending on the diet as you wish?     by acting on the wastegate?
    • That's torque and power, it's all from a single run.  The boost curve is "held back" from it's peak target in the 3500rpm to 5000rpm range from memory, so it ramps hard to something like 18psi then climbs more progressively to 23psi nearer 5000rpm.   It makes the torque (and power) ramp more "natural" and less hard on parts and traction, it doesn't feel artificially held back.
