Well I just went and cleaned it and gave myself a bit of a surprise; it is actually a Trust cooler not the stocker. Obviously replaced in Japan before the car got here. Trust is stamped on the top and bottom.

However since this is much much bigger(and also worth alot more) than the stock 34 cooler I am going to make the price $250 ono and buyer pays postage.

Pictures linked, you can barely make out the Trust stamping due to the flash on the camera but if you look closely it is there.

I'm interested, but do you have a better pic it, one with the logo? That picture doesn't really do it justice if it is a Trust cooler. Also, what are the measurements..

Cheers.

I am very interested!

Measurements would be good so I know just how much bigger/thicker than my stock GTT one. Happy to pay freight. Not sure if it will bolt straight onto 33 but if it came off your 34 then it will fit mine 100% :)

Thanks

Ok heres some better pictures showing the stamping on the top and bottom. Ignore the dirty garage carpet. :)

Size of the core is 240mm long x 190mm high x 100mm thick.

Unfortunately thats a bit of a "How long is a piece of string?" question.

As it is a much thicker core you should expect some power gain, and less heat soak, however the exact % will vary for each car.

The intercooler is not the limiting factor in how much boost you can run, its the turbo and all the support systems. For reference though, I was running 13psi on it with no issues.

Gtrghostdog,

Yes the cooler would be more than adequate for that setup. You will need the short 90 degree pipe and a silicon reducer and two clamps as well. These are included in the price.

But Razorsharp is in the process of putting a deposit down so if that falls through I'll let you know.

the IC should come with a small bracket that bolts to the rail, the 90 elbow, the rubber/silicon hose (AFAIK it is not a reducer and is rubber) and the various bolts and nuts. the IC bolts straight up to an R33 with a bit of fussing around. ducting the bugger takes a bit time but worth the extra effort.

Hey pushhead, did you have to modify anything or was it a direct fit?

Also, how much is postage to SA?

Can you find out asap, as I am quite keen.

for an R33 GTS-T with M-Spec front bar, I did not have to modify anything at all. Remove stock intercooler and replace it directly with this. I haven't dyno my car to compare it with the stockies but I can tell you it felt like the turbo spool faster. I'm very surprised that no one actually jump in and buy this quickly. For $250 this is too cheap seriously. dont want to spoil anything but errr these cost just abit less than a trust front mount assuming trust front mount are $1500 new these go for $1100 roughly new.

I was next in line if the deal with Razorsharp falls through!

I am very keen to buy this and have the money ready and waiting!!!

Gtrghostdog would be after me technically.

    • Lol a few are like that with no intention of being reborn unfortunately. 
    • Done, I'll do mine soon too - whenver I take out the car next. I can cheat and make it quieter by turning off VCT at idle too - but I lose the braps

    • The trouble with phone apps is that they really do not know the sensitivity of the mic on each specific phone, whether there is some sort of cover or skin that can change that, etc etc. So the readings off them are not calibrated. You certainly couldn't be sure that you were even within 3 dB. I have the same app on two (actually more than that) different phones/tablets and the readings in the same room at the same time are never the same. I don't mind the apps - they are as useful as a dyno - if you're testing for delta from thing1 to thing2. But not to try to generate some sort of absolute value.
    • I'm gonna use the "Sound Meter" app from the Google Play Store and as close as I can bother to these procedures: 4. TEST METHOD FOR ALL VEHICLES EXCEPT PRE ADR83 IN-SERVICE GOODS VEHICLES AND OMNIBUSES 4.1 Microphone position 4.1.1 The microphone shall be directed towards the orifice of the exhaust outlet and shall be supported by a tripod or similar device not providing excessive acoustic reflection. The general requirements for positioning microphones are shown in the Appendix. 4.1.2 The nominal axis of maximum sensitivity of the microphone shall be substantially parallel to the test site surface and shall make an angle of 45 degrees ±10 degrees with the principal direction of gas flow from the exhaust. 4.1.3 In selecting the 45 degree alignment from the outlet of a motor vehicle fitted with two or more outlets, only the angle resulting in the microphone being farthest from any other outlet must be used. National Stationary Exhaust Noise Test Procedures for In-Service Motor Vehicles Page 3 4.1.4 The height of the microphone above the test site surface shall be equal to that of the orifice of the exhaust outlet ±25mm but shall not be less than 200mm above the test site surface. 4.1.5 The distance of the microphone from the exhaust outlet orifice shall be 500mm±25mm. 4.1.6 [Relates to vertical exhaust outlets] 4.1.7 For vehicles fitted with one exhaust outlet the microphone shall be placed so that the greatest possible distance is achieved between it and the vehicle. 4.1.8 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] 4.1.9 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] TLDR: 200mm off ground 45 degree angle relative to exhaust flow 500mm from tailpipe exit. (I probably won't use a tripod) Here's a photo, cause I read the instructions wrong myself.
