i loooooovvveee the rocky horror picture show :D

oh that brings back memories,,lol

the whole crowd dress up to go to movies for rocky horror in vintage theater

not exactly a musical but Heavy metal, pink floyd the wall to name a few good ones

or in new york, las vegas ,, pretty cool

you can buy anodized colour paints in town now thats what I used last week, they handle pretty hi temps on short durations, rocker covers no problem.

brakes too , not racing , too hot

Thanks, that looks like it'll do the trick with some 'ground coat' first

Luke that HKS dump and front pipe I added links for. If they go for higher than that and postage is too much it'll be cheaper for me to just get an all in one dump/front from AM Performance like I had already planned on doing. Came across these by accident looking for a GTR grille.

yep ground coated mine first, tried the calipers polished shiny but the ground coat made it look better, buy at supercheap for 17 ea

Thanks Troy. Do you have any pics of yours?

took some before shots, tomorrow in the daylight i'll take some aftershots to post up

i deburred the casting marks off mine too. lots smoother now

hmm, true. might paint it.

I just used a spay paint with a clear coat and it came up pretty good and used caliper paint on the brakes, it fades after a few years so i had to paint them again.

if you go that route use VHT Brand, much better then others. they make super high temp clear coat to make them super glossy.

I did my R31 calipers, 7 years ago, still shiny red with polished fins and that was just paint not clearcoat too took a dremel to the fins to shine them up after deburring cast marks on them.

On another note I fking love my new car :D :D

pics or ill have you banned.

Think stock blue silvia with R33/S14 stockies and no wing. thats it, not really worth a pic :D

S13? 5 stud? interesting.

if i ever made up my f**king mind about selling, id buy an s13 or 14 with an rb.

why no love for the SR? dont knock it til you drive one.

More than likely going to buy another daily and use this for 'legitimate track work'

pfft, thats far to logical for you to actually do it.

FKING SO DEVO

There is a pair of 16 x 9 +8 wheels on yahoo atm exactly the same style as the 16 x 9s I've got now for only 8000Y. Damn I wish I wasn't pov :down:

should probably learn to stop buying cars so that you actually have some money eh? :P

If I ever sell up/someone writes it off... hello V35 350GT... would make such a good daily. Doesnt have the look of the typical Skyline so doesnt attract scumbags - blends in with the Camrys and the Commodores lol

blending with commo's is a reason to buy anything now why...?

slow day today. Ruby must be busy at work, same as Krishy, and Dan must be on another work field trip :P and scandy, sleeping?

not quite, work and chatting up the new twins at work. most fun ive had at work. ever.

by the way, anyone wanna buy a muffler? :P

Theres still 5days left on both of them, so i'll check back in a couple of days and see how they are going, with a rough price.

Thanks Luke. Can you read Japanese or do you have a better translator than google?

    • 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.
