Yeah Luke, I actually thought the guy was quite nice. Not until I got to a friends workshop to get the stuff fixed and him telling me they really can't fail you for the amount of wear in the bushes that I have.

Oh well, my first defect experience and I won't forget it. I think I won't be so nice next time I get pulled over, if they want to test and check f**king go for it.

Oh and another funny story.

Last night my girlfriends step-dad Aaron was doing night shift down at his work in Rosewater. He had a massive headache so he quickly rode down to the Liberty on the corner of Hanson Rd and Grand Junction Rd. On his way back to work he was pulled over. The officer checked his bike up and down asking questions about his HID headlights, his reply was " I only work night shifts so I'm always riding at night and this way I can be seen alot easier". Then they wanted his license (which he didn't have because he was just running down the road, lame excuse but still).

30 seconds later a blue VN goes flying past with a car full of Aboriginals and 2 police cars in chase. Aaron said "looks pretty serious hey mate?". The officer then said to him "I would help but I'm busy with you and they look like they got it under control". The officer then got a call to help with the chase and he told Aaron it was his lucky night and if he see's him again expect a defect for the single headlight.

^^^^^^^^^^^ when i was getting defected in my old 32 by a highway patrol, a vn wagon drove past us doing well over 60kmh. would have been 100+ easy just before the hill on south rd heading to flagstaff area.

i didnt say anything just watched the car go past, then noticed the cop looking at me and he said, "what?! you want me to give chace or something?!"

well since i was already defected and he's giving me attitude i said, "what?! isn't that your job?!"

i really didnt see why my stretched tyre's (235 on a 9.5") was more important then a yatch with wheels, speeding actully indangering peoples lives.

some cops need their head checked to find the real bad guys (note i said SOME cops. ive seen others that did their job really well)

6000k HIDs apparently look blue (as do white LED parkers)

cop shop clearance, but still they werent picked as HIDs. Apparently even though white is "the absence of colour" a normal halogen globe that appears with a yellowy tinge is "white"

i still 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.
