If you want a Side mount, look at a Z32 TT. You might be able to get one from a junk yard or even on ebay.

depending on how much you're looking to spend i would say greddy just because they're a quality brand and they are really cheap right now compared to most complete kits.check out projectnissan.com or PM turbo98.i would be careful what you buy on ebay.90% of the time super cheap price-super cheap,low quality part

All the intercoolers are pretty much the same. I bought mine from a seller by the name of delubozparts and it has served me well so far. A few people on FA also recommended this person.

There was also a test performed by someone on FA comparing the different front mounts to ebay (SSAC in particular) using IAT readings. The Ebay intercoolers did just as well as the name brand intercoolers. I think it was cwdmark or killjoy that did the test, but don't hold me to that..

Miami240, another guy making 400whp+ on a stock internal KA, also uses an Ebay intercooler. As does barney 240 who makes 500whp+.

im talking more piping wise.ive seen a few ebay intercooler kits that the piping didnt all fit together right.i mean if he is going with custom piping no biggie and he may be fine with an ebay kit ive just seen it happen before

I definitely agree with the piping being crap sometimes.. I'd just do summit racing U bends for piping or if you have the money/welding hookups, do all aluminum piping from wherever.. I've heard of the Ebay piping collapsing with T bolts due to excessively thin construction..

As for fitment...well...I'll never really expect anything to fit "perfect" after what I've gone through with my car... Its part of aftermarket parts when you go past IHE.
