yer but its under the current power to weight ratio for sedans, that the exemption i want to apply for, if it works out, yay, if not, expensive lesson :spank:

don't be retarded. They use the factory power to weight ratios to calculate the exemption, not what some habib cobbles together. you won't get the exemption and you'll be further out of pocket. I'm willing to put money on this.

sent the form today.. see how i go

wish me luck, and on the actual form, it shows what turbo family cars are not covered, almost all of them were 6 speed manuals or had DSG boxes/ highpo autos so i think i might get lucky. not holding my breath thoughconfused.gif

haha after my full epa, ive had my hks2530, 550cc sard injectors, z32 afm & nistune sitting in a box for couple of months. Still deciding whether to put them back on the car or sell them off. Life is stress-free not having to worry about copping another defect/epa haha

I fear the day it may happen to me.

I'd better start hiding this and that... Or leave it as is, and start worry when I finally met 'nice policeman' (or policewoman).

What you talking about?!

Which N1 turbos are you referring to?

I have 34 N1 with HKS actuators and HKS EVC 4 (may be 3) but it is rubbish compared to HKS GT-SS running solely on HKS Actuators.

I think new tune is in order.

Moral of story is... shouldv'e bought a R33.

haha yeah it aint nice. It came down to a bleed-valve which made me rip everything else off :/

haha sorta over the power chasing phase. Thinking of improving braking and appearance now. Less hassles.

If you leave it as is, they've won man. They've won.

haha i know :(

Although they will truly win if i sell up the car.

R34 GTR N1 Turbos have the same specs as HKS GT-SS, as in the Compressor Wheel and Turbine Wheel.

Previous owner would have just upgraded the actuators to HKS to replicate the HKS GT-SS to save from buying 2 whole new Turbos... IMO.

Both these Turbos are pretty much the equivalent to the Garrett -7's Turbos.

I believe Garrett make all Turbos, aftermarket tuning houses just put their name / badge on it and give it a different name :P

Nope -7 and -9 (aka GT-SS) aren't the same, slighty different compressor wheel. -9 without EBC spools nice and early than -7 with EBC.

I wonder what would happen if I whacked EBC in my old 33 GTR and have it set up aggressively, I'd never know.

$200 and you get 2nd one for free, alternatively, make an reasonable offer and you still get 2nd one for free.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      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.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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.
