Like the title says. S14 owners please post pics of your Greddy RSPL FMIC setups. I plan to get this FMIC real soon and wan an idea of how they look like fitted on S14's. The only ones I have seen are the Blitz and Greddy VSPL units. Thanks!

Wow are these intercoolers so rare that no one has a pic to post?

1.) give it more than day before you assume nobody has a pic.
2.) The RSPL is more $$$ the the V and also handles more power than most of us are going want/need.
3.) how is it rare? you can get it from enjuku...

norm get any intercooler and go custom piping and setup bro
you can tuck it in REALLY nicely and keep iton the DL
its the best

So in other words, it looks exactly like the VSPL but it's polished.

externally for the most part, yes. Internally the cooler is less restrictive. The VSPL kit comes with lower quality couplings that split/crack over time, and the elbow on the cold side is cast, kinda ugly

The RSPL has a larger capacity than the VSPL by the way.

Big intercooler on a t25 kinda sucked because I had the laggiest stock SR ever.

Looks good and now I know its more effiecient with the turbo upgrade.

The cores are different. VSPL is good for up to 400 and RSPL is good for over 400.

ill get pics of my car when i put mine and you should see lindsays
cant see it from front of car
great for us in 'high risk' areas haha
bug lindsay to get you a pic
its fantastic
it sits in front of radiator (between hoodlatch and radiator) and behind bumper support
nice and up to keep from getting slammed on he ground from lowered car, safe enough back to avoid severe damage if hit headon
and short piping. good for response. you cant go wrong

1) You are right, I got quite a few responses. Thanks for everyone's input :)
2) I know that. Who knows? The horsepower goals for my car might change. I would rather spend an extra $200 to get the better intercooler and leave my options open. If I spend 700 on a VSPL it's plain stupid to spend another 900 on an RSPL because of a change of plans.
3) Not too many people post pics of the RSPL. Thanks for the pics fellas!

Do you have an s13 motor? If so you're going to have hack your piping up. And delete the elbow on the coldpipe used on the s14 motor completely.
s14 motor in an s14 is perfect but otherwise get out the saw.

Update! I finally got my RSPL. It's everything good that everyone said about it and more! Fitment was PERFECT, (the instructions were very helpful to the people at Signal Auto because they all speak and read Japanese haha) The quality of the piping is TOP NOTCH (Super bling polished) and it had everything required for a seamless installation (The instructions said exactly where to cut the hole in the battery tray, what to cut sheetmetal wise to make the i/c fit, there were battery cable extensions for battery miniaturization and there was even a bracket to rotate the wiper/washer resevoir 90 degrees so that the piping can clear the battery tray. All i needed was a battery tie-down kit and I bought a Westco battery.
On a side note: There was a zenki s14 clip over there that still had the JDM digital climate control on it and the guys at Signal said that anything that I could remove I could have! Ofcourse I removed the ENTIRE dash harness with all the sensors, ac/fan/evaporator boxes, etc. and lastly the digital climate control unit!
