Well, out comes the secret weapon I've had stored for a while..... :D

For Sale: GENUINE - HKS - Bar & Plate - Intercooler

Item Condition: New & Unused.

Dimensions: 410mm x 260mm x 5" :(

Inlet & Outlets were 2 1/2" ID for a length of 2" so 2" was cut from each side and an alloy weld run on the edge of both sides. This allows the hose clamps to then actually clamp the hose down without it sliding/blowing off :lol: (Still have the cut-offs stored, if buyer wishes to hang onto them too)

Hi-temp 60% Aluminium based 3M 'Flat Black' coating was then used to paint the Intercooler. The endtanks were painted in a few coats. The core was then sprayed just enough to cover its silver appearance at 30 degrees and 60 degrees parrallel to its face. Therefore only protuding an inch at the most into the core itself. Overall, this keeps the Intercoolers effciency unchanged and helps keep Police and scumbags away :evil:

Extra Info: Officially rated by HKS @ 1000HP. Correctly rated by myself back down to 700HP. I'm sure it it will be able to flow 1000HP worth of air @ 40psi, but there is no way it can physically cool it down to an acceptable temperature with only so much frontal area.........

Hence this going on the market and another Air/Air Intercooler on its way :)

To those thinking about going Water/Air Intercoolers, ask yourself is the 1.1psi pressure drop at ONLY 7psi really worth it ? Imagine the drop at 30-40psi........ :O;)

Price: Cost me $935 direct from Japan avoiding Customs Duties aswell........will happily let it go for $740 including Registered Postage with Insurance Australia-wide, less Postage if collecting in person :(

Please don't try to tell me how this compares to the eBay Bar & Plate Intercoolers..... :)

This FMIC weighs only 9Kg (Including its Cast-Aluminium end-tanks - with flow design being more critical then weight here......), that for its overall volume will be less then anything you can find on eBay ;)

Location: South Australia

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
