Cheers dude. Speak of the devil, I think shit is going to grind to a halt!

Might have to pull out of Matsuri, some things have popped which I need to sort.

Hopefully can still make it for Mad monday though.

The All About Stance/ JDMST end of month meet was on today. It was quite big with the complex overflowing with stanced out cars within the hour.

Best of all, I got a rad photo of my car! Winning!

Cheers mate!

It was linked on my blog, I guess it didn't copy over when I posted here though.

In other news, I've sourced some widebody guards that a friend and I will be purchasing after Matsuri. Going to be the widest in town I think.

With Driving Sports – “Mad Monday” only a week away, I hauled ass in getting the R33 ready. This weekend consisted of fitting the Safety 21 rollcage, changing the gearbox oil, and engine oil. A few other things poped up along the way too.

Everything was pretty straight forward with no major issues. Nick and I took our time installing the rollcage as I was unsure whether to completely gut the rear interior or not.

For now we’ve left the interior trims in and taken the seats out. After matsuri I’ll look at removing the sound deadening and covering it all in some carpet.

I really like how the Stage 21 cage is designed, clearances are minimal and it doesn’t reduce head room which I was a little worried about. Because of the tight clearances, it did mean it was a pain to assemble in the car.

Moving on. We replaced the gearbox oil with some Redline lightweight shockproof stuff. As it would crunch when cold before hand. Hopefully the drive up to Wakefield will be enough for the “Smurf’s blood” to get into every nook and cranny of the box.

As for the engine oil, I ditched the Motul turbolight (10-40W) oil for some new Castrol Edge titanium (10-60W), in hope to boost oil pressure. Though after discussing the oil pressure problem with a few mates, I’m quite certain that the sender is in a low pressure area.

Another thing on the list to do is to put the aftermarket sender near the standard item.

Bring on Mad Monday!

thats a pretty big difference, hopefully it performs well on the track in handling temperatures.

do you think the clutch fan and shroud could fit in with that size radiator?

i think you will find with a clutch fan and shroud u will have to trim down the fan, have a look at simon-s14's build

Yeah it should be right.

As for the fan, I believe you'll need to trim the shaft leading to the engine down 20mm or so. Definately not a bolt in affair though. Simon's done it as Jamie suggested.

      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.
