Cheers!

Was a hella mission with all the logistics involved but engine is now in and bolted to the drivetrain, bonnet just rubs on cam gears or backing plate (not sure which yet) which it always did. I had redrilled the engine mount holes but opted not to lower the engine so I could keep clearance between the swaybar and the sump. Might try so bigger bonnet spacers and if the rubbing is a big issue and starts destroying belts, I may have to modify the bonnet :(

Or.. just be gay and put the cover back on :P

My nice -10 breather fittings don't fit under the bonnet either :( So need to figure something else out there.

So excited that it is home with the engine in, now I can get stuck into the piping!

There are some brackets you can buy to clip the gtr grill in to.. they simulate the gtr lights with the inbuilt clips. The part numbers are on here (sau) somewhere, remember it from years ago. Otherwise gtr lights are not exactly rare..

I think i may have to search for those numbers as i want to get a gtr grill instead of teh letterbox i have now. Just found rear wheels bearings for 100beans each!! :banana:

CBC bearings in perth have them in stock

Got a part number?

NJ246KIT is the number he quoted me, i won't know 100% til they get down here. But he assured me they were for a 32 and he had one in his hand describing it to me.

My diff seals came in so now i just have to get a couple sets of bearings and i can rebuild them

Those were trade prices aswell bubba

Interesting is that part number comes up as s15 rear wheel bearing.

*edit

bubba - have a read of this thread, http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/37813-r32-headlight-questions/page__hl__gtr+headlight+clip__st__40

I hope it isn't. I'll rip one out of my spare rear end i have in the garage and take it into work to confirm measurements once the new bearings get in.

Thanks for the headlight info aswell heller44 :thumbsup:

Hubs are different material, shock mounts are different, but I didn't think the track is wider.. Guards are, but mine is the same as a gtst, all steel front as well. So same drivetrain as a gtr with more weight and less tyre.. awesome.

    • 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.
