Greddy intake and misc parts
 
http://greddy.com/products/jdm-speci...er/frs-brz-86/

Greddy has a few other things going on it looks like no idea on availability though.

I'm glad to see they have an oil cooler on the way...:thumbsup:

Interesting. Looks like the intake is a Takeda copy...

Greddy looks like it doesn't have the port for the noise tube and uses a dry filter but the looks are very similar.

yea, I did notice the sound delete. The Takeda does have a dry filter option, that's the one I went with.

wait you expect overpriced JDM goodness to make power?

you must be new to this game.

If you want the best intake (you know like it makes power) look everywhere else, preferably perrin or one of the site sponsors who have been transparent, most of the JDM stuff is just overpriced, and rarely makes the most power.

Are you like a hipster for cars?

Once this is out you can just call them and ask.

Funny the Takeda and Greddy are completely the same!
Look at the filter box, They both use momentum air filter boxes. Greddy just has the sound tube delete and different filters.

Yeah just noticed that i hadn't looked at the Takeda very close, i guess whichever you can get the best price on or if you have Greddy exhaust and just want to match.

denverizzles 07-18-2012 08:20 PM

Yeah the greedy and takeda look almost identical...i wish i could match the greddy/takeda box with the injen intake pipe. mmmm SICK

kendalldwhite 07-18-2012 08:39 PM

any idea how much oil coolers go for?>

switchlanez 07-18-2012 08:41 PM

Yeah I called Greddy last week asking why it looks like a rebadged Takeda intake and they confirmed they are collaborating with Takeda on the intake.

And to SkullWorks, these Greddy pieces are USDM products. Greddy seems to be the American partner of Trust in Japan. All the BRZ exhausts on greddy.com are not sold in Japan and, likewise, Trust sells completely different JDM exhausts for this car. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

cyde01 07-18-2012 11:04 PM

nice, single exhaust! don't like the sound too much though..

Last I heard Trust and Greddy were the same company (Greddy was a sub-brand of Trust??? Maybe?). But there was some bankruptcy issue a little while ago and they re-structured. It's now possible that Greddy is a separate US-run company but still associated with whatever is left of Trust.

Greddy posted on their FRS Facebook page that it will be available in August.

Really debating about buying that SP elite exhaust and now seeing the intake system it would good to have matching products in my car :happyanim:

Greddy is the division of Trust that sells outside of Japan. It's the exact same company and they operate as 1 company. You'll never find any different.

Trust to Greddy is like Honda to Acura (in some cases)

I know that's how it was. But I lost track of what happened when Trust had to restructure because of bankruptcy protection in Japan. Things got weird for a bit and Greddy on this side was sort of independant.

Or something.

Ok did some googling:

Greddy is a sub-brand of Trust in Japan (like GRacer and GREX), but they couldn't use Trust in the US because if other trademarks. So in America Trust operates their whole operation as 'GReddy'. In 2008 Trust Japan filed for bank protection, but GReddy on this side managed to keep operating mostly normally until Trust sorted stuff out at home.
