I bought the second one which went for nearly twice as much. I was going to bid for the one you got but I thought I'd go for the other one as it looked in very good nick. Also as it came off an import, the import intercoolers do not degrade as fast due to less salty roads in Japan. Anyway you did get a bit of a steal, I think i did also, a stock smic for less than a hundred, I ain't complainin.

yup, we both did good :thumbs:

 

Mine came off a JDM car too - the other things the guy was selling included 440cc injectors.

 

Just gotta figure out how to fit it. I hope it can be done from inside the wheel arch and not a bumper-off job.

I think I will get mine professionally fitted, provided it won't be too much. Basically I have a '93 UK spec, so the original intercoolers in them are pretty much fecked and I couldn't afford a new one so this will do.

yeah i bought mine from scooter for £50...

 

it is a bumper off and wheelarch job mate, you could do it from the wheelarch only if you are lucky (and very dexterous) but its not worth damaging the new one for the sake of saving yourself a couple of hours work
