Heya Speaka,
I've done the same as you, came across some money, bought a nice Hybrid Cooler, same dimensions of the core as the one you listed. Mine is an older one, but it is in extremely good condition, no leaks apparently.
I was originally looking for a GTR intercooler, but came across this one for $600 from Hikari in Adelaide.

This will be front mounted on my 1JZ GZ20 Soarer, in place of the stock FMIC. I'll also need custom stainless steel pipes, probably installed by Exhaust Technology in the future.
As I'm making around 185 rwkw at stock boost, I'd suggest that the larger cooler and raised boost (14.5 PSI with a celicamad boost controller) will make around 200 rwkw or maybe more. Currently my car is in getting an oil cooler, larger intake pipe which extends into the front bumper, MicroTech extra sensors and tuning, and a few other bits and pieces.
Hopefully it will be a nice car to drive after everything is done. I'm also looking at removing the B.O.V. and oil catch can to avoid obvious defects.
Danish.
