How does R&R feel, mine just seams to stop pulling and then takes off again.

It feels like you're putting your foot on and off the accelerator really quickly, and you lose a fair bit of power. Sometimes it's worse than other times. I've gotten a loud pop from the exhaust on a relatively hot day, on cooler days nothing much happens.

yeah that's it, pulls hard to 4500, then flatens a bit and then takes off like somone lite a firecracker under it's a s s, from 5500 onwards.

Yeah i don't get much popoing or anything, but i certianly fell it more when cold, as my boost controller does NOT controll boost well. LOL

Hi guys, just an update, I tried resoldering and drilling a 0.6mm hole in the restrictor and it's *still* boosting over 10psi at some rpm! When I tested it, the outside temp was probably around 22-25C and it was definitely going into R&R pretty badly. I held it all the way to redline and it felt like less power than stock, even though it was indicating 11psi (down to maybe 9psi above 5500rpm), so I think R&R was occurring all the way to 7000rpm.

I'm pretty sure I'll need a new boost map, however Sydneykid's base map that I'm using now has a solenoid injectory duty cycle of up to 90% so there's not a whole lot of room to move in regards to actually reducing boost. I'm not sure what will happen when I remove the R&R - will it produce even more boost? Or in other words, is the R&R limiting boost?

The only thing I can think of is the air is escaping out the sides between the restrictor and the T-piece, but I've twisted some copper wire around the T-piece to act as a clamp and it's on there reasonably tightly. I can still pull it off with one hand and a bit of force, but it's not like it's going to fall off by itself. I also thought that possibly the solder could have come out, but after I pulled out the restrictor that I resoldered and redrilled last time, it wasn't that.

Any ideas? I'm pretty stumped right about now...

Oh yeah, one more thing, I've noticed that after fitting this Jaycar stuff, my car sort of seems to misfire when idling. It seems like it's when the A/C compressor cuts in, like just one cylinder that makes the car jolt a bit, but a couple of days ago when it was left idling for a long time it was doing it every 20 secs or so. After I started driving it seemed to mostly go away. Could this be some fouled spark plugs, maybe caused by my testing in R&R?

If the plugs are old or gapped wide (more than 0.8mm), then chances are you have fouled them with the R&R running. Stop the R&R and the misfiring will stop.

The most common problem on IEBC’s I find is that guys put the vent in the wrong place . Where have you got the vent placed?

It should be between the T piece and the inlet pipe to the turbo, after the AFM.

Not between the solenoid and the T piece.

Not between the T piece and the wastegate actuator.

Not between the boost supply (inlet pipe to the engine) and the solenoid.

:P Cheers :D

I have no idea what gap the plugs are. They are just what was on the car when I bought it. When you say the misfiring will stop, do you mean after I've bought new plugs, or after a while without going into R&R they will clean themselves?

I'm pretty sure I've got the vent/restrictor (same thing?) in the correct place. I've attached a pic (sorry about the quality, don't have a digital camera). The T-piece is connected up slightly differently to what I've seen before, but it should still do the same thing (?). The turbo inlet pipe is the one with the small plastic connection coming off it, which is underneath the bigger pipe with the top small tube connected between it and the top solenoid connection?

      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

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      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.
