Mark, I nabbed it for $450, absolute bargain!

Kye, it's the JJR one, here's the link

Meant to reply to your SMS today, sorry, been busy. Unfortunately I can't make it, the missus committed us to her friends 22nd that night, dress up so I don't really want to go :P I've got to organise a time to get the y-pipe of you if you don't mind, very keen on getting that sorted

Luke, thats hot. :P

My old man picked up a 1994 Mitsubishi Delica Spacegear today and I got to drive it home, 2.8L turbo diesel 4WD... it came with a Nardi Torino steering wheel! I'd nab the steering wheel if I had a car to put it into lol the R33 requires airbag and the daily honda has the cruise control switches which I dont want to lose.

I was going to do the high boost mod on my car today but unfortunately got stuck at my mothers house all afternoon!!!! :P

skip it and put a bc in mate. i did it over the weekend, set mine to approx 12psi tonight. effing fantastic i tell ya!

turbos almost off again. rotated it from the exhaust wheel by hand while it was still on the engine, made a nice little grinding noise. sigh.

anyone know anyone who has a t28bb lying around?

:)

and what are you trying to say huh? huh? huh? :P

never u mind hehe

heslo: envious of the airbox.......always loved the ARC stuff....except the price

luke_enr34: have you got any cables coming thru any grommets in the firewall...............could be water coming from road spray (in the engine bay) working its way thru. mate of mine had same issue, he thought his windscreen was shagged in his patrol (plus the next 2 they installed). turned out it was his cabling for the spotties that was tracking the water in via the grommet

The things i know :P

Got my dash out today. Now to remove all the air-con components and just have the rear demister and a fan for the front window. Gonna be a shit load of space behind the dash now. Thinking of making a cf panel with 2 switches on it.

I have stock ecu, turbo ect ect ect. Little worried about detonation going for more than 7 psi. Did you bypass the factory solenoid altogether?

Yep, bypass it. You can still wind in decent boost with the stock ECU so long as your EBC is set up correctly... probably better off going that route to be honest. Then when you want/can afford go for a full fledged aftermarket ECU and get a tune, then you'll really see some gains!

turbos off. comp cover had half blown off. pulled the cover off completely, theres a couple marks on it, and theres some scraping on the blades, so ill be looking into some options tomorrow.

certainly did Steve

yeah the stock ecu is definitely a setback with boost - rich & retard really sucks. power wasn't being distributed nicely through the rev range - anywhere from 3500 - 6000 rpm was very flat, but as soon as you passed 6000, this big hit of power would chuck you back in your seat.

however -

when i added my fmic, i took the car for a drive around the block with the front bar and reo off -it was boosting almost 1 bar! and this was with the standard solenoid, and standard ecu - it flew! but as soon as i put the reo and front bar back on, boost dropped back to 9psi

Im runing a remapped ecu now, good bang for buck, and its roadworthy :P

How much is safe? I might have to do some homework on ebc's... :P

The only thing that annoys me really is the fact it hits the boost limit (5 psi I think...?) under 3000 RPM since the AM dump/front/cat and 3-3.5" catback has gone on. Would like just a little extra between 2800(approx)-5000 RPM.

Nice Luke...stretched rubber on the rears? :)

    • 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.
