We currently have 27 vehicles on our compliance list and we are about to add 2 more, Both the Nissan Cube and the Honda Civic EP3.

What we need a Test Vehicle of both types for our compliance testing. The turn around would be 3 to 6 months, but it would be a free compliance. Car of course we have to be clean, no rust and as close to factory condition as possible. It would have to come to Melbourne firstly of course but we could send it off from there.

If you are interested email us at [email protected] or call on 03 9415 7150.

Regards,

Paul @ Carizma

The cube needs to be a 1.4 Ltr, Auto up to 12/2005

The Civic EP3 Type R needs to be up till 12/2003

quick question, would it be cube gen 2 or 3? not sure which engine/trans choices are on the possible raws list.

not interested in doing the 04 model EP3s? or did the have the facelift during 03 sometime? I'm keen on one of the later EP3s with the slightly updated front end. just can't remeber off the top of my head if that occurred in 03 or 04 model?

Hey Baron,

We will eventually, it would require a new emissions test, so down the track yes but in the short term we are gonna start with up to 12/2003

cool. so I am right that the facelift EP3 with the different lights/bumper/etc is 04 onwards? I am a long way from being an EP3 expert :P

I might still go for a 02/03. if I find and buy a suitable car I will let you know asap.

thanks Paul.

Not sure about the face lift, will find out but the reason were not doing 04 on wards atm is emission testing requirements changed and it got more expensive to test.

thanks Paul.

yeah fair enough, it makes sense. I think it is 04 when they had the facelight, new lights and front bar and the interior changed a little too with different recaro's etc.

That's correct, they are a goer now.

ta!

looks like I need to snatch one for a few more days.

was it heath that cleared it?

remember them saying they had to smash glass on one.

    • 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.
