Many people have said they dont have a UHF.

1. Post up here if you don't have one and don't want to fork out big $$$$

2. Pair up with another person in the same boat.

3. Head down to DickSmith with $30 each, and get these.

4. Never get lost on a cruise and learn truckie talk ;)

Dickie Smiths should still sell them, and may have come down in price, definitely worth checking out if you think you're going to be doing any kind of long term usage with your UHF (ie, many many cruises)

i wouldnt mind one so if some1 wants to make a deal with me

(got no car or licence im 16)

ill pay my half i need before weekend pm me :(

i lve runcorn real close to kuraby dick smiths

Edited by prego
I bought a cheap uhf awhile ago now and i think from personal experience that if you want to get one your better off paying abit more and getting a good one

bumping and quoting this for truth

my radio costs a bit more but i dont forsee it breaking for YEARS yet

I grabbed a twin pack last week, the $120 ones. Do a decent job, makes for fun listening to the truckies on the way to work! Also get to find out where the cops are accidents etc...

Came with a twinbase charger and I got a incar ac adapter too. So no worry about going flat. I already want a more powerful one ;)

    • 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.
