as said above it isnt a real trust intercooler.

Also u cannot bolt this up, u need to get intercooler piping made for it, u need to make mounts for the intecooler, u mostlikely need to cut up the front bumper.

So add another 600 for the install and thats what it will cost u.

Just out of curiosity, how do you guys know it is not a genuine Trust cooler?

I RECOMMEND ASKING THE SELLER FOR THE TRUST PART NUMBER - HE SHOULDN'T HAVE A PROBLEM GIVING YOU THIS. YOU CAN THEN CROSS REFERENCE PART NUMBER TO SEE FIRSTLY IF IT IS GENUINE AND SECONDLY IF IT IS SUITABLE FOR YOU- THIS IS THE SAFEST WAY. IT'S TOO LATE AFTER YOU'VE BOUGHT IT, DOESN'T MATTER HOW CHEAP, IF YOU CAN'T USE IT, IT'S EXPENSIVE.

THERE ARE SEVERAL OPTIONS FOR INTERCOOLERS, ADD STATES THIS ONE FOR DRAG OR DRIFT !

CHEERS

JADE

that ad just screams dodgy

look in the for sale section. R32-GTS is selling a hybrid copy, or what ever u want to call them.. 600x300x100 core now for $550!

Once i get more cash together i'll more than likely purchase one similar as i know i can get them for $600 any time i want.

i hate ebay for the fact there are ppl like this who scheme and make up hopeless ads.

How a proper GReddy intercooler should look like (although like Driver said - GRex/GReddy/Trust are all the same company):

How a Hybrid intercooler looks like:

Then look at the Ebay ad.

I saw that ad earlier this week..got excited..then suspicious..

Look at the end tanks, and the holes on the top.

It looks to me as if it's a Hybrid copy, with 'Trust' stamped on it.

meh.. i bought a brand new hybrid copy cooler for $400.. looks really good quality for the price. I can't really see the difference of quality between it and my old HKS cooler worth about $800 to be honest. Time will tell i guess.

Always be suspicious of ebay and "brand" items. If you want cheap stuff, and not too fussed, then go ebay.. otherwise stay clear.

THE SHEER SIZE ...WILL ASTONISH YOU

:( .. thats what i say to all the girls too..doesn't usually work :)

thanks for the help ppl guess i wont buy it then and just get the one myfriends..brother $1k installed

its one of those universal coolers.....its imported from taiwan.....

are these any good ?

its size is 800x300x76.....also does size matter when u get a cooler like the bigger the better ? or will a 600x300x76 cooler do the same job ?

its been fitted on a r32 and so far no problems

Do a search. A lot of people have used the Hybrids with no problems, same with the Trust.

In the end it comes down to personal choice. Someone might swear by Japanese parts, others will say parts from other localities are just as good if not better.

If you're looking to save some money, then a Hybrid might be the way to go.

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
