Greddy literature says the kit uses a Type 19 intercooler core. RHDJapan describes the Type 19 core by saying, "The intercooler has tube-type cooling passages and off-set inner fin cooling passages for an extremely lightweight and efficient setup." Sounds like it is tube and fin. Trust GReddy Type 19 Intercooler Core - RHDJapan

Anyone know about the differences in part numbers? There is 12040700 that doesn't include the air intake pieces, but I'm not completely sure about the difference in part numbers 12040701 and 12040702. Looks like anyone using an Efini y-pipe wants part number 12040702?

 

Ah solid detective work! I think you're probably right on that one. It's tough when there's so little information.

And yes there are 3 versions. One that has a coupler hookup to the non-efini y-pipe, one that is a bolt on to the efini y and another with no intakes or hot side piping for people with single turbos

 

All Type 19 refers to is the size of the core (410mm x 266mm x 115mm). The type of core is Spec-R HG, where HG refers to the special chemical polishing that is applied to the end tanks (I'm assuming HG stands for "high gloss).

 

Yeah I just ordered this kit as well. It's made to order an should take a month and a half.

I'll report back when I get it

 

Who'd you end up ordering through?

 

Nengun.. By far the best price. And also the only place I found that was able to get the kit without the intakes and hot side piping.

 

hi-5

 

Looking forward to first-hand impressions.

 

Guess we're bros now

Yeah same here. I'll post decent pics. It just blows my mind how this part has been out for 4 years and there isn't a single review or forum member that has it. It's just a big mystery kit but hopefully that can is opened now

 

sneak peek

 

I am also ordering this kit for my Spring cooling project. I will also post detailed photos and post them in this thread once it comes in.

 

Well that's hardly fair.. Post more!

 

Should have more next week. Had to delay the shipment so we could throw some other things with it. It's shipping out Wednesday from Japan, should take about a week.

 

got 2/3 of the kit in today. the radiator and condensor are shipping separately.

my phone is out of room, so can't take any quick pictures. will try to take some this evening once things calm down.

the intercooler is tube and fin. it's smaller but also thicker than I anticipated. the filters are a lot smaller than I expected as well.

pretty excited to mock everything up, but waiting on that third box.

 

some pics









said it came with a FEED AST. not sure if that's what this is or not.

 

for a used kit from japan, i'm pretty surprised there's really only 2 bent intercooler fins, and they're hardly even bent.

will post the rest of the pics once the third box arrives.

 

This looks pretty good.
So how'd you get a used kit?

 

yahoo auctions

 

Looks actually really awesome so far.

I'm wondering.. Would the rad be the same one that retails for like 1000 usd? That's like the only rad I know greddy makes. Pretty impressive how complete this kit is and how it works with twins and ac etc..

And looks like its in very good condition!

 

from greddy's literature:

stock 310x530x21
greddy racing radiator FD3S 315x531x48
xl greddy racing gt-r r32 radiator 355x531x48

(comes with the R32 GT-R radiator)

 

Yeah that piece alone has an msrp of 1100. Crazy!

Now get that kit on the car

 

will probably be another week before the third box shows up, and then i'll know exactly what i'm missing (if anything). i have a feeling it might be short a couple of brackets, but luckily there's a pretty detailed parts list that shows the bracket shapes, so whatever I don't have, I should be able to have made.

something to note, and maybe this is common knowledge, but the quality of this elbow was a lot nicer than my old GReddy elbow. definitely less rough edges, better casting, slight more defined flange shape. less weirdness around the logo. maybe they've changed their production methods over the years, but this one is noticeably more "polished" so to speak, when compared next to my old one.

 

Anyone with pictures, details, or impressions?

 

Did the other parts show up yet?
I was wondering about this last night.

 

I really like the look of this kit.

Any impressions and opinions?
