Roll Call: Need a tune? Smoky's from Top Secret Japan is coming downunder


Recommended Posts

I was expecting a PM. this is not a chat room. Can this thread please be locked, all geniune interest in tuning please PM or email [email protected]

i've got to do some work too...

if they were just as good im sure the japanese would be outsourcing...MOTEC is huge in Japan for many of the big workshop cars as its an excellent ecu, and is known as the cream of the crop, but they are still tuned over there.

Who made your TV at home R31? Japan is known for there electronics, so leave it to the professionals as they would say? enough said.  

please lock the thread.

probably someone in Korea or Taiwan would be my bet.

This really is a valid thread you know. Its just discussing ideas on a subject, thats the purpose of a discussion forum.

not for people to post a one sided thing and let it be

go and check.

yes fair enough. Its not one sided. Im asking for INTEREST..did I say he is better or worse than your guy in VIC in my original post?

who is being one sided. look lets not argue just go on results..but i have seen theirs and many other performance companys in japans track record and at the end of the day who has the quickest jap cars in the world?

just look at the top speed records, maybe they can speak for themselves also..

you have to open up a bit and stop being so patriotic and one sided. No one is forcing you to get your car tuned are they?

Ash is a tight ass and prob has a tv which he bought from BI LO which was assembled by 10 year old kids getting paid in rice grains ;)

LOL...why is this thread turning into a dagger fight?

If you want to be fair, there are things that the Japs do better then us, and there are things that Aussies do better then the Japs:)

This is not an attack, the Japs are on the money when it comes to hi-po gear and often tuning etc etc.

But dont knock Australian know how and ingenuity. Keep in mind that the local Grp A scene built the fastest GrpA GTRs (we did - Gibson Motorspoty) and our Sierras were consistantly amongst the quickest. So we know how to build, tune and race cars with the best of them.;)

lol...That said i want this guy to do a 300km/h pass in the harbour tunnel and then get deported:)

So are you taking him to a Parra vs the Bulldogs game or what:)

if someone meets him can they ask him the idea behind the engine choice for this? ;)

Oh my.... that car is ***n mad. someone please buy this for me! I dont have my CAMS L3 yet =/

This is a business type thread and is borderline getting removed. Just the same though, some posters are overstepping the line and getting wildly off topic. Keep it sensible and the thread stays.

the VQ is a shorter motor than the RB allowing room for the V layout cooler/radiator?

that would be my guess anyhow...

Nagata san has to come down to Melbourne to do 300km/h on citylink... I can just see him flying past an etag station... *video game voiceover* TIME EXTENDED!

that would really shove the pole further up brack's a$s :kick:

Personally i think it's good to see a relationship between car clubs in Australia and OS tuners/motor companies strenghtening, however do i agree that he is either better or worse than Aussie Tuners.

Good Work

    • 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.
