Okay, very strange thing happening at the moment, just going to see if anyone has any ideas, as i am running out of them...

car has been misfiring for a little while, cleaned the AFMs, gotten new fuel filter, new o2 sensors, new set of coil packs, new spark plugs, tried a mates igniter pack...so far nothing has fixed it...

i will start the car in the morning, let it warm up, then drive on my way to work, it will boost and drive fine all the way to 7000rpm hapily...then once it gets hotter or i have been driving it for about 10-15mins, it will start to cough and splutter...starting at like 3000rpm all the way up, if i drive under this it seems fine, if i rev into the spluttering, it will blow my IGN fuse under the bonnet and the car will shutdown...

we have tried all of the above, extra grounding on the engine, sorta out of ideas at the moment...anyone got some suggestions on what might be causing this???

Get a mate who has a good running 32 (GT-R or GTS-T) and start swapping/substituting igntion components one by one.

One thing you haven't mentioned is the coil pack wiring harness. Check that the wires and plugs are all good. Is the ground lug tight and clean (and grounded?).

Even though you bought new bits, substitute his coils and ignitor as well - doesn't hurt to check again!

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
