Suprash Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Thanks Jake, appreciated I actually went through a company called Flying-Performance, they advertise in Ebay as well, but got a free BOV with mine, doesnt sound to bad either.... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HYBRID-INTERCOOLER-KIT-SKYLINE-RB25DET-GT-SPEC-gtr-bov_W0QQitemZ8063264141QQcategoryZ72205QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem However, their not the most communative bunch, depsite you transfering money into their account and asking when delivery was started to turn into a bit of a headache, but their Ebay comments seem to refelct the same, good product, got delivered, shame about communication. And the BOV was left out of the original order, so that had to be re-sent..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 They're cheaper direct from the manufacturer though. $555 (£295) inc delivery, last time I looked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprash Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 They're cheaper direct from the manufacturer though. $555 delivered, last time I looked. I dont think mine was much more, at the time I didnt actually know about Hybrid and who they were, I purely bought this through Ebay as a quick and cheap measure, still it only came to £450 delivered from Oz, so in comparrison to what you pay for a Greddy etc, I was more then happy........but thanks for pointing that out now Jake, its always after aint it EDITED: the prices must have been lowered, they werent that cheap last year. Plus their Ebay adverts were never in Sterling, they only advertised from the .au side I think....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 It was back in Sept last year I got mine. Prices might have changed a bit by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jot_ie Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 No, its a greddy 3 row (complete kit) Just saw yours and your prices.

I had someone look over them first and they said for the price their a reasonable bit of kit.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jot_ie Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 You wont go too far wrong there Best of luck with it In your earlier posts you say you noticed a difference when you put on your new fmic To be honest I havent noticed any difference with mine. But then again I havent pushed it at all. Just a guick test just to be sure I had everything back together. Its been flogging rain here all day Might get to try it out on the way home from work this evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getrag Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Is that this one too? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HYBRID-GT-SPEC-RACE-INTERCOOLER-KIT-TOYOTA-SUPRA-TURBO_W0QQitemZ8065419408QQcategoryZ72205QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrik Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 What iv heard and read. Its best to become a member at the http://www.hybrid-power.com And buy directly from them. Since they are even copys of the Hybrid one. They are the retail sellers, so iv heard. Think you even get a discount for 5-10% for members on that site. And they offer DHL delivery for 3-4 days i think ? Read some about that from http://www.supraforums.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its been flogging rain here all day Might get to try it out on the way home from work this evening I never noticed any difference when going from the standard side mounted intercooler to a FMIC, and the swapping again for the Hybrid one. An IC wont increase power, as such, but I took it that all my IC's have been in a fairly good state, otherwise Im sure you would notice a difference going from a knackard SMIC to a new FMIC......

supra matt Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 you should notice it pull harder as it getting colder air which will mean a touch more power happy days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
