High temps alone wont really crack it, Ive had mine glowing on the dyno and it never cracked.

But Shock loading it will.

Driven through any big puddles or anything Genelle?

Nope just my normal cruising on the highways,in 5th gear eboost 2says very little boost. :-)

30,000km a year, is a lot of fuel, how often is your mechanic replacing the fuel filter? I would hope at least every twelve months, but If it has been an oversight, it could potentially explain the problem. And If neglected enough it may have had a knock on effect with your injectors. It would also reduce fuel pressure/flow.

I get a full service every 10000 this includes all filters and oil.:-)

Fuel filter is replaced every 10000. :-)

30,000k per year is not excessive for country folk. We do that in the Mr's car then plus whatever I do in mine.

Also sounds like the servicing is up to the mark.

I'm wondering if you've just been unlucky, mechanic had sourced 2nd hand manifolds that may have already started to crack, they have a reputation for doing so.

I think if all suggestions are taken on board at the "next" replacement you might have a better outcome.

Check replacement for cracks, machine true to head and turbo, replace missing studs, ensure sufficient clearance around studs and thick washers, Nissan gaskets, dump supported by bracket (without inducing stress), flex joint from dump……..

If after all that it still fails, buy a Commo.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • 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.
