madmike Posted September 15, 2006 Author Share Posted September 15, 2006 true i was looking at them too , just i have hks other mods so thought might be cool to match them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 The HKS intercoolers are very good quality (I have the R-type fitted), however they are more expensive compared to the GReddy and Blitz ones. The HKS FMIC also doesn't include the 2 hard pipes on the turbo side, these need to be bought separately. I can supply the HKS, Blitz and GReddy IC's, if you want prices give me a shout.

Sharpie Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 apart from cam gears! Is that the new ones as well as the old style ? I have not seen anyone report that the new style have failed ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mas Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Sorry to hijak mate, but I still dont know if the SMIC is better or the FMIC, some dont like the FMIC because it needs some modification in the engine bay , am I right? if so are there any FMIC that can be fitted straight in the car without any mods and changes done ?

madmike Posted September 16, 2006 Author Share Posted September 16, 2006 well i think you have to move the cooling pipes with a fmic ,but some kits come with the brackets . also has anyone used the AAP DUAL FAN FIT from mvp motorsports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2jzhead Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 oh and i found that one of the olf brackets that used to hold the old air box on digs into the hard intercooler pipes, i just bent it slightly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
