This is one serious low mount package that can feed (and cool) enough air for 600 rwhp and a 10second pass. I spent a LONG time getting this together and developing a monster street/strip setup. The only reason that I changed is my latest fad for track and motorkhana which requires a completely different and lower power set-up.

The above parts are less than 5,000 km old and are in great condition.

OK - let's start with the turbo side of things.....

The GT-RS terbs are well known for big power applications. These are in great condition as evident by the unworn compressor turbines as seen below:

Note that these also have brand new actuators fitted.

What is not so well known is that these terbs are prone to "shuffle" at part throttle. Using a bridged type manifold helps greatly in reducing this.

The bridge also fouls the standard factory water coolant lines, so I had Earles lines and fittings made up as shown in the first pic above.

Now - onto the intercooler. This thing really is a monster and it's a shame that Apexi have stopped making these bar and plate units. This is in basically new condition and comes complete with blow off return pipe (replaces the small factory plastic tube).

I really can't say much more except this has a 600x280mm front area with a massive 136mm thickness:

To ensure maximum airflow, we made up a stainless connector from the intercooler to the 100mm Greddy plenum. This includes a vent pipe to connect to the Apexi blow off return pipe:

And finally the Greddy plenum. This has been highly polished and is in perfect order:

I really prefer to sell this kit as a whole, and for that reason I won't split this up unless I really have to. When/if I do split this, the separate prices will total much more than $3k I can assure you (have offers already in Perth for IC and terbs).

The sale price of $3,000 is excellent value and with the addition of some silicone joiners, clamps and gaskets, this is a straight bolt on affair.

Prefer local pick-up but will pack and send at cost to anywhere in Oz.
