Hey guys, can anyone help me with possible modifications to an L20et in my HR30 Skyline? kinda stuck on where to go no with this engine.... currently running 12psi on I/C and exhaust, but want a little more out of it (If i can get it!!!). Would injectors and fuel pump get me anywhere decent or upgrade to an RB20 turbo a better option??? Or do i try and get an FJ20et?

also anyone got a DR30 for sale? deadset serious please email me. :blink:

cheers

Don't shoot me for this, but go to an SR20DET or an RB25DET...

Reasons: FJ's are more expensive for parts these days, harder to find parts etc(i looked at this option when i had my 16, so badly wanted a stroked NA FJ with ITB's) and less off the shelf mods avilable...

Rb20's are less common these days, a mate just paid 1.3k for one! they used to be half that(yes i know exchange plays a part, but they were cheaper before the exchange rate was good then bad)

SR's have heaps of bits around, as they were used in s13/s14/s15, so JDM and ADM, most mechanics know them etc.

Rb25 was used into the 2000's in the R34(in NEO form) so there will be more bits around for years to come.

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      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.
