I spose I should add in here that I spotted one of the sexiest R34 GTRs that I have ever seen in Civic bout 7ish last night. Until now I'd only seen photos and WOW!!!

I don't even know what colour to say it was, sorta purple, sorta green... Lotsa layers in there!!

I didn't talk to John for long but he mentioned that the auto elec'y ran out of space for the day or something so it was moved back temporarily, so i don't think it would be completely finished..

I'll hopefully be back this arvo to grab the car after what should be its last and final tune since losing my middle muffler to rust and re-installin my airbox.

Hey Guys. Saw a Maroon R32 behind me most of the way through nicholls about 5:30pm today. Just for those of you who dont know, while my skyline is off the road am getting around in an dark blue 1989 Mazda MX6 Turbo with a ridiculous wing and a set of shitty vault wheels and a massive intercooler out the front. Hope to be back in the 33 by march. Until then if you see me getting around wave to me, dont show me up like most skylines have been trying to do :spank: not members of course.

Interested to know what figure you end up at Sam, will be more or less the same setup as me.

Ben, mate, not sure what has happened and its got John baffled... My car lost 40kw's which was due to the collapsed exhaust, replaced the cat back section and also installed a JJR return flow cooler and the std air box. Since, John retuned it with an extra 3 degrees (had to remove 3 degrees to stop detonation due to the collapsed middle muffler), which meant it should have been back up to 260kw.... Unfortunately, it is still 227kw at 1.3bar...

John did a compression test and all came back fine, all averaging about 155-160. He has a theory since everything else has pretty much been explored and that is possibly my valve springs have become weak and now the valves are floating a bit. He said that the best way to find out if its still on power is to line up against you.

Sam - he's talking 230ish then I doubt it's still 'on power' :whoops: Sounds expensive.

Spotted John (a20089) yesterday. Gave/got. You were finally spotted mate! :) Flukey timing, I was messing around with my stereo out where it wouldn't bother anyone and saw you pulling out of the golf course (I think)

    • 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.
