You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

Kinda off topic, kinda not....I would like to If I may talk clutches.....

what are ppl using thesedays? With what power, usage of vehicle and longevity?

I would like some recommendations please....but not of extreme....as it appears my years of support of them and my purchase of many(probably around 6 id recon) clutches still doesnt deem me important enough of a response from them....so they can shove it.....(this is the 2nd time I"ve contacted them with null response....grrrrr end rant)

Does anyone have the hookups for clutches at a better price? Its been so long since I've been in the trade now...wahhh retail hurts..

Want me to bump the idle up a bit? Perhaps its harmonics at that idle speed?

I heard something banging underneath the front too when you took off, perhaps the cooler pipe? Could you be feeling that through the wheel somehow?

I'm running an exedy HD organic, not huge power 180-190 rwkw but lasted me near on 3 years of track use so pretty happy with that.

Haha enjoy.

What do you reckon of the new marv creations? Popping candy and jelly bits.

Popping candy tasted good, though I'm guessing it's targeted at kids as pop rocks usually are. The jelly one got stuck in my teeth hard lol, ruined a pod block of chocolate for me...but my mate loved it so meh. I love mousse too, but can't beat the classics sometimes. Do you guys do Top Deck in bar form?

Cooler pipe could be right to some extent seeing as the engine has moved a little.. But I doubt that much. Drive it tonight when I come past

At the moment, I have the Nissan GTR clutch but Racepace will be strengthening it to handle 300+ rwkW.

Or go an Exedy or Nismo Coppermix.

On The Run Motorsport could help you out.

A friend of mine ordered off RHD Japan's website, take a look.

Did you pop your motor? What's planned for it?

I'm using the Nismo Super Coppermix twin plate. Great clutch which can handle a heap of power (400+kw) and it feels like your using a standard clutch.

spoke to jamie at garage cafe one of his pistons was knocking or something, he's getting it rebuilt (forgies) with -5s or similar

Think he wanted -9's. Were trying to convince him to go -5's to make use of his built engine, we'll see if he will succumb to the powah!

But nah -9's great for the street!

Hey Toby accounting question -

Is there a downside to buying a car outright (cash) I mean I know you won't claim interest etc but that's fine cos you don't have to pay it in the first place.

So im guessing the only negative is that you don't have the leverege that keeping the cash at your disposal provides

Does that make sense?

      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.
