Thanks Dale yeah its what i do for a living mate but i would like to start doing more car stuff though as people tend to appreciate nice pipework under a bonnet more than in a factory haha hopefully ill get it sorted this afternoon and get it on the dyno sometime this week am keen as hell to push the lil GTX and see how many horsepowers she is good for

Looks like you're pretty handy in the fabrication stakes there Mick. Well done, now get into running this thing up with some boost into it. :)

Looks like my car wont hit the rollers till Friday night now id say :whistling:

Gives me a bit of time to get my pressure test done and weld in my point for the boost control pinch.gif

Hoping this turbo has more than the 320kw that some have predicted and considering that it made 312kw with boost pissing out of it while it was trying to pump 22psi down her neck so im hoping to see 330kw at least! Or maybe im dreaming haha but bring on near 350 i say!:thanks:

I reckon 335rwkw @ 25psi plus with all the problems sorted out :P

PS your pipework looks awesome. Wish I could do that!

Id be happy with 335kw lol hoping this pipework helps boost and throttle response as i think those boost leaks may have been hindering my response

Thanks Justo keen to start doing more work like this i enjoy it :thumbsup:

Hows ya ride coming along?

Thanks mate yeah bit the bullet and got rid of that ugly crap haha for sure mate always keen for a chat with a fellow enthusiast :)

Looks good Mick.. so glad you did away with that half peeled spongey crap piping.. Ill probably be working or hanging out at unigroup on friday arvo so be sure to say hi!

Not much progress unfortunately, crank is back at the crank place getting the crank collar fitted. Should have done it in the first place. :pirate:

Hey Mick_o, are you still running the "small can" 14psi actuator, or did you end up changing to the 18 or 19psi big can one?

Thanks sarge thats not actually a bad idea! Never even considered running it that way as i had my mind set on shortening up that pipe as much as possible but i like the idea of keeping the pipework outta the heat i think what ive done with my pipework would be less prone to heat soak as im nowhere near the radiator and there is less pipework directly over the top of the engine which should help keep intake temps down imo

    • 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.
