so it's time to get the S14 back on track.

got car started and moving today,

found a animal nest and crap under bonnet, excuse to by a kartcher and blasted that shit clean.

so I went over al the wires and hoses checking they had not been chewed.

and I found 1 split hose.

pulled the host off to find that in the plastic tee that the host plugged into had a screw in the end jaming it off with the ose covering it.

from the pic below it is the hose that is listed as "to turbo"

I cannot work out where that hose ends up, does it need to be blocked off or can I just cut and tuck it?


sorry to ask a car question in here but you never know some-one might have an answer.

is there time to change before bus leaves/at airport/at camp?

Nop new policy in place. Bus departs straight from office to airport.

Gain an additional hour of productivity as no work time wasted on changing at camp.

nope high viz clothing is allowed as it deemed a uniform.

which is funny

as the complaints were from the suits about the high vis clothing in the lounges.

I seriously don't see an issue about it, it's somewhere to kill an hour prior to a flight that they happen to have some free snacks and booze,

who cares what people wear.

They hate us because they anus

Hi-vis for lyf

lounge has says they will let you use showers and get changed is not correct on arrival.

Boost solenoid connected to post afm intake pipe and wastegate actuator. I'd imagine the other end is likely connected to a nipple on the turbo outlet. Am assuming you're running the stock solenoid setup? I could be wong as I have nfi about SR's

It's like S13's and R32 GTST's though. Used to be everywhere now (Especially 32's) see maybe one every 6 months. Tipping Silver 34 GT/GTT's will be the next endangered species.

    • 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.
