Hi guys and girls I'm currently running a Series 2 RB25DET in a R32 Skyline, Running the standard R33 ECU as well. Car has bugger all done too it engine wise, just the normal Pod in a cold air box, intercooler and 3 inch exhaust from the turbo back. I'm currently looking towards some real control over the engine and plan on going a aftermarket ECU. The only real things I need from it other than the basics is I would prefer to go a system that flogs off the MAF in place of a MAP sensor. And something capable of making decend power in the future

Ive looked into and annoyed many people about what they would suggest but would like more input before I spend my money. I'm not looking to spend huge amounds of cash either (arnt we all?)

Cheers 2.5L

Nistune - using modded Z32 ECU rewired for the R33 (different firing order); this is a commonly used solution these days for R33's and is by far the least expensive option.

It won't do away with the AFM (again the Z32 AFM is a common upgrade) but keeps many factory features such VCT, cold start, knock sensor etc

They can be purchased, installed and tuned for aorund the $1k mark all up... most after market ECU's will cost at least that just to purchase (2nd hand!).

Good luck

      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

      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.

      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.
