yup... this year I did it on falken 912's in the dry and managed to give myself a bit of a scare on the fastest bit... recon I was probably just as fast pouring rain on the Nitto's

(bearing in mind that the surface of that road has EXCELLENT water dispersion)

This...comparing apples with oranges here. Even on the same cars traction is a totally different story with suspension setup and power delivery, let alone totally different chassis and gear ratios.

oraqnges lol. icwatudidthar

ya even with my power I could spin in 3rd when I had cold streets

semi's fixed that.

yeh if it doesnt sell in say 6 or so months, chances are ill keep the f**ker and keep going.

This... is what I was getting at..... ;)

no it wasn't lol, you out of all people wait for any chance you can to take a dig at someone. It is highly unlikely you would beat around the bush lol

While I do enjoy the good ol dig... especially at people with orange cars... I was actually referring to suspension in this instance ;)

Lol yeh.

Super streets= shit, do not rate them at all I reckon if I end up keeping the car they'll be coming out

Super streets are good at what they do, there's more to suspension than just springs/shocks...you probably haven't had the whole thing set up by a decent suspension place. Need corner weighting and purposeful alignment...

Lol.

I've been on the nt05 train for ages, nothing but praise for them. Full traction everywhere with 280rwkw, feels good man

S chassis is a bastard for suspension setup. Some run mega kg/mm springs other run soft.

iiirc JET200 run's 6/4 or 5/4 or something, while Revolution run 10/8 or 11/11.

At the end of the day 'traction' is a myth and people will have differing opinions of what 'loosing traction' really is.

You will always be compromising with a crossover tyre. NT05, AD08, RS3, R1R, RSR. All have their upside and downsides.

I'm on a 255 AD08 and when they are warm and up to temperature (their peak) they still slide around like crazy. I'm at a level now and car is at a level know here more tyre is needed / a sticker tyre. This same thing happened 12 months ago when I moved to a 255 on the front. The car and I moved on and pushed the 235 front tyre passed what it could do.

i remember driving behind kris a couple years back in my GTS4, pretty sure ham was riding shotgun. the body roll on that thing was f**king scary lol

anywayyyyyyy.

who here hates HSVs?

you know what you need richo, 215s on a 9.5" rim..

That's because Kris had 280rwkw iirc and standard suspension.... because that's how we should mod cars, power first

    • 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.
