Hi,

Im not too far away from purchasing an intercooler for my car. Im considering getting it through greenline motorsports and they quoted me $1,411 for a trust kit including shipping.

I wanted to know if any of you guy's have had to pay any hidden costs when the item arrives here?

Is the cost of the cooler and shipping all I have to worry about?

Thanks

Mark

going by nenguns and greenlines prices which are all in yen, the prices are differrent every day due to the exchange rate and also if you ask for a quote the price will be different again so 1411 trust kit means nothing, i would asume he is talking about the trust V-SPL which is 600x240x76 which is slightly smaller than the hks type s being 600x301x65 i just went for the bigger one and you cant usually go wrong with hks

its all preference and what you can afford

Its luck of the draw whether you get jibbed with import taxes really, some people cop it some people dont?

I'll also be getting a V-SPL 300/276/76 in a month or two, at the moment its 71,000Y/$920AUS ex shipping from nengun, Greenlines prices are a tad more.

Let us know how you go?

Thankyou so much guys for all your helpfull feedback, I will get on the Nengun web site and give those guys an e-mail, and if the hks one is a lil bigger why not go for it I have the impression that their parts are a bit more superiour.

Thanks again guys!!!!

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
