these are the people cops should be getting, but im sure the cops would see the car with no numberplates but let it go and continue getting those cars with noisy exhausts instead.

It was completely rebuilt. Billet straight cut 1st-4th gears, billet crown wheel and pinion shaft, new diff bearings, Nismo mechanical 1.5way LSD, hydraulic clutch conversion. Had it in the car for all of a trip from Bayswater to Healesville when the circlip popped off the end of the shaft, lodged itself elsewhere in the gearbox and the car was stuck in 5th gear which made for a very interesting and difficult tow home since the car wouldn't roll ;)

Gearbox was out of the car on Tuesday, landed in Sydney on Wednesday, got fixed and sent on Thursday arrived back in Melbourne this afternoon and I got the car back this evening.

I haven't even driven it yet :) The Pulsar was auto beforehand, I'd been collecting parts for this conversion since November DECA last year when I pulled the car off the road.

Don't presume the worst all the time Shan :)

Respray to me = The paint faded over the last 18 years. Full respray to freshen it up.

Head/turbo condition = Yeah, maybe he has blown the turbo.. But it has a new one now so it's all good? I fail to see a problem.

Trust me I've seen enough dropkicks come through the doors at the panelbeaters to know why someone resprays their cars or changes head and turbo.

NO ONE resprays their car for the hell of it in the same colour it was before. They only ever respray the car in the same colour to cover up something or to fix damage.

If you're lucky, it's cos of faded paint. Worst case scenario its cos it had a frontal, or was a VIV car, or a rebirth. You're just as big a dropkick if you're naive enough to believe the in the kindness of the human spirit when it comes to used car sales. If you believe the worst it makes the seller work harder to sell the car to you, or at least be more willing to drop the price. Don't delude yourself and buy a car with glazed over eyes.

Cops are enforcing the road rules on VicRoads behalf...so yeah they have the power to f**k you up, but they usually only bother with trucks etc.

Saw today two vicroads cars and an unmarked cop car pulled over on the grass section between the eastern freeway. 3 guys talking to each other.

Sounds like they were getting ready to ram more people lol

What are they goin for?

Color pref would be black, gunmetal, white, silver...

white is classic on a 32, like bayside blue on a 34 and midnight purple on a 33.

20k or so for a mint 94 model.

    • 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.
