??? :D

Well they are special, the particular model isnt used in any other vehicle afaik? But, functionally, I didnt think they were any different to your stock standard turbo and wouldnt require any 'special' skillset to rebuild?

I agree, no special skill set to rebuild BUT the advise you get is critical. I have spoken to so many people who say that a 30/76 would be great in the M35. Jetwreck is running a 30/71 in his car and his car has a lot of lag.

I just had mine rebuilt as a Sierra Stage 1 (compressor =43mm / Exhaust = 45mm) and this is almost perfect IMO. There is some lag but not an issue to drive around but it comes on strong and what is equally crucial is the question, Is this the last mod you want to do?

The reason I say this is because my injectors are at 100% duty cycle at 6800rpm (or maybe a tad higher), so any bigger turbo will mean you need to think about new injectors and piggy back ECU.

I don't think there is a model number written on it... I can check tonight if needed.

I would be giving the turbo ONLY to someone who has done this turbo before as it is special.

yeah im of a totally different opinion there hey. whats so "special" about it ?

i need MTQ to assess what will suit as a high flow

and need to know whats written on the body to give them some gauge of what will suit.

just because others have done them before and tell you cant get them done elsewhere doesnt make it true!

bb hiflow is a hiflow if theyve got the technical skills to do it then its much of a muchness really.

ive hiflowed a much tighter unit and half the sized housing with a GT25 bordering a GT28 inlet .. and 30/70 is possible as craig has one. i really dont see the big deal as theres massive clearence for maching the housing and the replacement catridge.

if someone says otherwise that noone else can do it but us.. . theyre probably saying that to get the business.

my money is on either a GT30/70 or a 2860RS GT BB for $1465 as a hiflow at MTQ and im betting its just as good as GCG or others have done and cheaper too :D

MTQ down here told me to bugger off, as did most of the turbo joints. They had never seen one before and it would take them too long to jig up on the lathe, for the amount they would be doing.

you should be going bigger injectors if youre at 100%. youre running the risk of detonation and a craig 'situation'

It only gets to 100% duty cycle at over 7000rpm, not where I drive it on a regular basis.

Also that does not mean it is leaning out it just means the car is not as rich as the computer would like it to be.

I will put it on the dyno in the next couple of weeks and that will give me an idea what is going on.

spray patterns and injector flow rates arent as good up in the high numbers. people dont upgrade to get more from the injectors, its so they can remain in the 'safe' area

anyway, get an adjustable FPR and up the pressure a little. youll squeeze some more out of them

And make it even richer down low perhaps?

Emanage... You know you want to. :D

I'm down for one if we can hide it properly!

can we make it look like a hitech amp in the boot ? lol

i can see it now..my emanage sitting on the passenger floor cables everywhere hanging from the dash, motorbike cop leaning in the window saying "well looky looky here then.. whats this all about?"

They fit quite nicely beside the stock ECU actually :D

hahahaha i had one double-sided taped next to my knee in my S15. cops would look at it and ask what it was, i mostly told them it was a mobile phone charger, thats what the USB port is for lol

    • 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.
