Also Ben,

Can you PM me details for that translation thing you have. I want it. Cant for the life of me work out what half of it is. I have worked out what each option is on the display unit, but want to know more about it all.

And how the freak do i change the time on the clock? I cant find anything to change it at all.

You'll need to throw $20 in my account and i'll send you the document. It doesnt cover everything, but covers most of the important stuff :P

No idea about the clock. I cant work it out either.

just complied the new Cedric "parts car". Needed some new trimming on the A-pillar and an auto fluid change, but apart from that she's running brilliant! Its got the Cima style dropping centre section of the passenger seat so the rear passenger can throw his/her legs through!

Heated seats, reverse sensors, cruise control, electric everything. Only 4 things from the factory options its missing. Leather seats, reverse camera, sunroof and xenons.

It will be sold for a bargain, not to decrease the price bracket of these wonderful cars, but so i can find another box. The black one is still on the hoist and im sick of seeing it with half its guts out.

Check the for sale section in a few days and you might see a bargain of the century!

Ben

put it up on www.aus-vip.com if you can, or i can for you, would be good to see someone take it and watch it be modded on there

32 4whore, would be good to see you there too with a members ride thread

whats the news with you Kristian, found that black one yet?

anyone want some fluid for your tranny?

These tranny's recommend the J Matic fluid, which this castrol stuff is meant to be for.

Apparently only comes in 3x4litre packs or Repco recon its a 20L drum.

Thats exactly the same as mine. So, you can buy mine instead. Slight gearbox issue, with it being in peices, but still a bargain! :P

I now own a supra RZ and a daihatsu mira as a daily and the mrs drives her echo. Add to that the latest cedric and the black cedric a 350K mortgage and a baby coming in 5 months and it equalls a lot of car expenses! Especially since the wife wont be working for a few months after the birth.

Plan is to sell the new cedric for 12Kish and buy another to put the box in the black cedric. Then when its on the road sell the mira and drive the cedric as a daily. I will most likely advertise it for 20K and see what happens. If it doesnt sell, then i wont care. This project has cost me well over 30K so far. I hope to get at least some money back.

i would stay clear of that one. Although it passed compliance, it has had minor accident history. Bonnet is diffenately been replaced and a few other bits and peices.

The guy sells everything at or below cost price when he doesnt get rid of it within a few weeks, so it doesnt surprise me its going this cheap.

Interesting thread here, guys... keep up the research! I'm looking at a Gloria to replace my V35s (one has sold, the other is on the market), and have been more than impressed with what I have read of them so far, and it's time for a change again...

mine is for sale :( Going to put some pics up soon. It needs some minor panel repairs, but she's in good nick.

After 12Kono as is. No rego or safety certificate as my last gloria is still registered in my name because NSW transport lost my qld number plates and qld wont cancel the rego.

I'd be interested in that: love those cars! I couldn't stop staring at the Infinity M45s wherever we went when I was in the 'States earlier in the year...

farrk ebay is full of fraud these days. I've had 6 emails from different non members asking to buy it and a link to say that someone retracted a bid and to click here to login and check the history. Turned out to be bollucks. Glad i didnt sign into the link. Very nicely done though, looks exactly like ebay.

email:

the grammar in that email makes it suss, engineers know how to talk properly (or should do after 4 years at uni)

sucks that things like this happen

i can put the car up on aus-vip if you want, there are a few people interested in them

ok, maybe someone can help me out here...

over the last few days in the cold weather my cluster has been flickering and turning off for brief periods of time.

today on my way to uni, the cluster turned off for about 10 minutes while i was driving, which also caused the check engine light to come on. so on my way home i stopped in at my mechanics workshop to see if anything was wrong with the engine. i knew it was to do with the cluster dying but just wanted to make sure.

i asked him to hook up nissan consult to it and it came back with a speed sensor error, so he reset it and that got rid of the check engine light. so i decided to take the cluster out when i got home. on the way home i noticed that the power steering also cut out when the instrument cluster did. this leads me to believe i have a loose earth somewhere that is causing the problems.

when i got home, i pulled out the cluster (which is surprisingly easy to do) and played with all the plugs, and it still flashes, so its not that.

any ideas on where the earth could be if its just the instrument cluster power and power steering?

BTW the LCD still works all the time

Does anyone on here know the part numbers for Brake Pads and Rotors.

I dont have the time during the day to take the pads out and messure them up or the rotors. Very Very busy at work.

And when i get home im too buggered to have a look.

My rotors are fwarped and terrible. I want to get better brakes and rotors.

If anyone has the part numbers please let me know.

Cheers,

Brenton

    • 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.
