question!... is anybody running a FMIC without the grill in the bumper cut out? ill be putting a front mount on my aristo this winter, but i dont want to cut out those black plastic inserts.. i know its doable, ive seen some aristos/gs300 running a fmic with the bumper uncut, i just wanted to know the dimensions of the intercooler

Both the Blitz drag spec and greddy r-spl kit using 600x300x115 core don't require any cutting at all. Take 1/4 of the time to install compared to ls kit and work twice as well. But at least $1k dearer.
Trick is they have angled outlets for both better flow distribution and fitment.

You can also space the grille out to suit the FMIC and its unnnoticable. I just made up little aluminium z brackets to push the grille out about 20mm. _________________
The Greddy LS fits with hardly any cutting of the bumper if you know what ya doing seems every tech day in SA we do a Greddy LS fit up honeslty not Hard....hellz as Gerardo said the bigger 115mm intercoolers even fit its just a matter of taking your time and only removing small amounts of bumper at a time with a dremel or angle grinder preferably dremel and come up with a clean install.
alright awesome, thanks for the replies.. yeah ive got a dremmel tool, i guess ill just take my sweet ass time and do it nice and easy _________________
