had a few hours free today so i rilled up me a 3 inch to 3.5 inch step and tigged it to the V-Band. Tried to go buy some tight radius 3.5 inch mandrels and was dissapointed >.<

Man this town needs some more performance orientated shops! Should have the dash fittings and line on wednesday, and stainless pipework to go to the cooler piping should be done by the end of the week :)

Ill throw some pickatures up later on of the mounting of the turbs on the GREDDY mani.

Got the power steer tank and surge tank today. Look the goods. Power steer is wrinkle black and installed already. Just waiting on pumps to arrive now and i can start the surge tank install. Should hopefully get a few front end boots this week then it can go back on the ground and go for startup :) Pics will follow tomorrow

Me: Walks into repco, up to the parts counter. "Hi, im chasing a bosch motorsport fuel pump, part number blah blah blah, also known as an 044"

Repco phag: I will go see if i have one.

Repco phag: I have this high pressure clacker pump, will it do?

Me: Facepalms. No son, it wont do, look the part number up and tell me what its worth on my trade account.

Repco phag: At trade it comes to 323.50 per pump plus a 15 dollar freight charge per item.

Me: Facepalm. Walks away.

They also sold me the wrong oil filter which kind of fitted....its o-ring was kind of bigger then std and didnt seat against the block so kind of blew out with some temp and pressure and kind of drained all the oil from the sump and knd of spun a big end....in hindsight I am gutted I didn't check the new for old side by side.

Got the front end boots done today. Front end is now complete and now its on to the Surge tank install. BIG thanks go out to Brendan at VULTURE for the mega cheap pumps and MEGA GREAT service ive had from him on a few items. Now all i need to do is break in to a speedflow retailer and start making the pumps work.

Next week i am hoping to get a few days off(i work in excess of 90hrs a week) so i can get a little more progress as my neibhours are starting to get agitated at my late night booze fuelled shenanigans. Hoping to have a run in tune by the end of the month or at least early december, ill shake the car down then im throwing 40+pound at it for a hero run or 3 :)

      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

      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.
