swap your brakes for my brembos + cash stu???? lol

will u be in the shop on saturday morning?

I am amazed you can part with this animal. Real shame you have not been able to get out and enjoy it more. I know if i had the money and could justify the spend i would be PROUD to have such a unique and well built car in my shed.

Really hope you find a good home for it, or find a way of keeping it.

hey mate, nice to hear from you. i think i was going through some kind of depression lol.

engines back together and will be fitting it soon. still need a diff centre but got the itch back to drive it.

Extremely Nice build, and sad to see you sell it, after all that work, and only a taste of all that fun!!

So, instead of watching a movie with the missus, I sat on the lounge for around 4 or 5 hours and read this whole thread... I think I'm now in trouble with her...

But this is an awesome build, and makes me appreciate this beast even more!

we tried to run a group buy for members but there was little interest so it didnt go ahead. also the mods werent too happy about it.

decided to keep the car, just put it away for a bit.

So after reading all that... lol have you still got it? or has it been passed to another owner now?

ps, i read about you making the RB sumps...is there a link for these?

Great to hear your keeping it Stu.

It's been suggested I buy it way to many times,,,but I just can't bring myself to owning a yank powered Skyline. I love it but it's just not me.

Which brings me to a question,,,would you be interested in making me one of those sumps for my R33???.

Cheers

yeah mate, the issue is making one offs. its more worth the effort when we punch 3-5 out in one hit, otherwise we have material left over etc.

    • 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.
