Do you plan to change the turbo?

Because if you dont, then there is absolutely no need for an I/C upgrade... personally i would suggest (if you are doing a turbo) to do the I/C & turbo upgrade together.

And then keep using the stock I/C for now

I recently changed from a Trust frontmount to an ARC item on my GTR. this change transformed my car...It makes more power at less boost and decreased lag by 300rpm....very noticable. I will never buy another brand intercooler...obviously price reflects quality however. Have a close look at there design....especialy the inlet side to the core's.

a lot of people get FMIC just for the sake of it, you could easily without hindering performance run about 220kw with stock IC and thne have no lag issues

my ARC sidemount maxed out at 210rwkw then i got detonation with anymore boost.. no way you could safely run that with a stock cooler.

      Hi All, My R33 GTSt has a broken air conditioner condenser, and receiver drier.  Trying to find replacement parts (specifically a new receiver/drier) has been a nightmare.  Is anyone able to point me in the right direction, please?  It doesn't need to be OEM, just fit in the OEM space with the appropriate pressure switch. Many thanks, Michael

      Installing the fuel sender O ring in R34 GTT

      I thought DW was one of those things that people thought was the bomb ~10 years ago and since learnt not to use their stuff? Because it's not any better than a bunch of other options, and definitely worse than a number of other options.

      There will be wiring, preferably crimping. The whole "skyline specific fuel pump" marketing that DW uses is a lie. It's just an ordinary fuel pump with all the ordinary bits that come with it. You still need to do all the wiring that you would have had to do otherwise if you bought something like a generic Walbro 525 pump.  Other things to consider (based on my horrible experience using DW pumps) * How is the fuel pump sock attached? On my old DW pump there was no locking mechanism, it was an interference fit and after a couple of years of driving, the sock came off. I now have a random fuel sock floating around in my tank =/ * Does the fuel pump have an internal check valve? My old DW pump didn't. Not having one is a pain. Just another thing to buy and faff about installing into your fuel line. I wish it was stated on the product box/online description 'no check valve'. The product description gave no indication if it had or didn't have one. I wouldn't have bought it had I known it didn't have an internal check valve.  * Consider the depth the factory fuel pump sock reaches in the tank. If you install the DW pump in the stock location and use the baby sized sock supplied, you will find yourself running out of fuel with like 15 litres of fuel still in the tank. + * Do you have any plans to use e85 in the future? Now is the time to install submergible e85 fuel lines in the tank.

      I have ad blockers and automation breakers (like NoScript) installed on all my browsers on all my devices. I have a PiHole at home and use other forms of DNS blocking to prevent the advertisers, and more importantly, the trackers from google, meta and all those other kunnts from watching what I do. They learn NOTHING! Or at least, as close to nothing as I can make it. I don't care if google knows that I'm searching for things. But they can get f**ked tracking my every move. Plus, when surfing donkey porn, the automation breakers help to prevent driveby trojan installers.
