cos my foctory ones had hacks everywhere and i got em really cheap.. whats wrong man?!?! diddnt mean to offend ya :O

They just look ricey, more suited to a stripped out race car.

Edited by DSTROY
i know this, but when doing a 20 conversion, why not run atleast a side mount?

I'm going to say, because none of the standard piping etc would line up or at all be usable with a VL engine bay.

Too much hole cutting and chopping out airbox trays etc.

Be alot more effort then its worth, and why bother cutting a whole heap of holes in the bay when you will eventually upgrade to a FMIC. The crossover pipe is a great bandaid fix just to get the car moving imo so long as the car ran standard boost with std timing etc.

Maybe I am putting too much thought into this :\

stripped out race car!?!? u mean this?! hahahaha

lol! that reminds me, you keen on coming up to this http://www.loveday4x4adventures.com/Australian4x4Muster.html I might head up with my sister. I just want to win the Landcruiser that was painted up at my bro in laws paint shop :O

    • 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.
