well round 2 has been and gone, had heaps of fun didn't really focus on the competition part, quallied 11th due to all the broken cars there was only a top 16, my first battle came up against matt russel , I lost, but had so much fun battling some one of his level and just watching him chase me in the mirror was awesome, plans for the car are some ducting around the radiator behind the intercooler to try keep it cool, constant laps witout stopping cause it to hit 100+ degrees, buy some new front steer tyres and get it ready for the time attack and drift battle event in mid june, heres the official round 2 video il post mine when I upload it, and if anyone is intrested in seeing my engine bay its in the video in the opening flashes, https://vimeo.com/65643760

    • 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.
    • Trailer got new mudguards to accommodate the new wheels Lightweight ally Painted, stickered and done ✅ 👌
