have a look in the radiator, if there the level in there is fine (down around 1-2cm) then just top it up with distilled water and the same with the over flow tank.

Yeah pretty sure the radiator is fairly full as I only checked the coolant a month or so ago and the overflow bottle still had something in it, just over the last few weeks it must have used the rest up.

So don't even top up the overflow with coolant, just use water?

I gave them a call there open till 4.00

I got a note on my font door saying that they try'd to deliver something to me today, i think it might of been my new Brake pads :D so i have to go pick it up after 2. i didn't know they delivered on Saturday's.

You can top it up with coolant if your 100% sure that you have the same brand and make of coolant that is already in the engine. If you mix active ingredients there is a chance that they can react and will turn to jelly, which isn't a good thing the have in your water jackets. Water is a safe option if your not sure since you are going to be changing it soon.

Thanks mate.

EDIT- If it just so happens to turn to jelly, what would I do about it? Just flush the radiator?

i missed pendulum to see lupe, was still amazing but yeh prodigy was insane, like 15,000 people all going nuts when the bassline hit for smack my bitch up

+1 eye candy.

pendulum were good.

but I thought prodigy were kinda average to be honest.

They talked way too much shit instead of letting their good tunes do the work.

Some of the nice sounds and basslines were spoilt because of the stupid screaming etc they were doing.

good day out tho... :P

    • 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.
