NO NO, All Jap Day is where its at yo'

small car sunday turned into Auto salon. fail.

i love the selection process for AJD.

best part was my mates 32 being refused, was the best lol i ever had,he was cut deep.. lets see if you can

spot the fails, new game.

chromies and aftermarket front bumper, side skirts and rear pods...

while its not my personal style, I dont see the problem with it ? Unless they want to have a show for cars which arent show cars, in which case they should call it 'all boongers day'

Yer, its a mate and i shouldnt pay out his personal taste, but he honeslty could not understand

why he didnt get accepted. its clear they wanted JDM styles, and stuck to

it, which is why i think the show was successful :)

yer i know i had aussie made fail rims on my old yacht, but i like to learn the hard way.

and i did.

so you're saying a beat up pos 20 yr old gtr in stock trim and rims would get preference over a gourmet pimped out 33 with chromies and kit?

man. some people are picky. i dont understand that. if theyre that anal, I should enter my mums toyota seca. its japanese. its fwd. its stock. its 6 years old. f**k. why not eh? I'll have to remove all the shit in the back seat but hey, can I win a trophy?

Any pimped out car with gay body kit and chromies fails. I'd rather a factory bog stocker 32/33/34 than some pimped out ugly distastefully modded pos!

nothing wrong with aftermarket kit, but the wheels, whitewalls and the standard height (to an extent) would have ruled the car out. and it has nothing to do with show cars. whos to say that car is a show car and a mint condition S1 RX7 isnt. my silvia is a show car i guess and thats been accepted every year. its not so much cars have to be done JDM style, as theres a lot of stock clean jap cars there. they are just against distasteful mods.

i actually remember that aqua skyline at the kadina show last year, and i heard someone say hes hoping for the best jap award ppfffftttttt!!!!! haha hes seriously kidding himself and setting him self up for a major reality check. sorry if u guys are mates with him lol.

thats the way the show is run, and the main reason its so successful. if u dont like it, take it up with the AJD committee. this is one of the main reasons SCS failed over the years. no screening of cars and a lot of junk getting in.

Gotta say I agree with Dohmar here...

I can see these any day at Colonnades carpark....

they are just against distasteful mods. In whose opinion? Sounds like the door bitch at the night clubs.... and we all want to slap her.

the opinion of anyone with remote taste in modifying cars. white walls and chromies, umm someone tell the dude a skyline isnt a commo.. or is it.

u dont have to agree with anything ive said, but the vast majority of the SA car scene does, and hence the success of AJD. the only people kicking up a stink are the ones with distastefully modded cars who dont get accepted.

I agree with steveP. Some have this fked up idea that a car cannot be stock whatsoever, so in order to modify it they will distastefully mod with a cheap gay bodykit and chromies. Tasteful mods can be done and done reasonably cheaply, why there are some out there that deliberately choose the ugliest kits and wheels is beyond me. However I'm not arrogant enough to think that mine is the only opinion that counts or that my own car is even remotely hot.... so each to their own.

I've asked it before and will again.... why spend money on a car to make it look worse than a stocker?

    • 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.
