I'm amazed that he hasn't hit anyone in that speed while just only last week TWO under-cover police officers were driving UNDER the speed limit YET they have managed to hit an old lady.

:blush: how did they catch him, i mean those SS's are fairly quick but assuming he was going at least 120km/h faster than them when they saw him i don't think he'd have struggled to get away.. That would also = an estimated speed if they were driving, and i know that if the car was stationary when they saw the gtr they wouldn't have seen him again.. so maybe 200 is an exaggeration?

long stretch of road or not, he had to have hit a traffic lights at some point. its mentioned that he was 'weaving in and out of traffic'. either way like you said he would have been past the cops w/o seeing them. but all they need to see would be his plates. or they could have caught up at the next lights and he wouldnt have known he was in shit till the lights started flashing.

also does it really matter if it was 200 or 160?

i think you right there man they tend to blow up the storie if its a jap car but at the end of the day all of us have done stupid shit and no one can act like they havnt done high speeds before he was just unlucky maybe he can learn from this the only thing that pissed me off was it had to be a line.. ah well

I really dont agree with taking any skyline up to its limit, whats the point really??

if you really want to get the rush, jump off a plane or something, take it on the track

I remember not too long ago when i was doing just a little over 100k and came to a complete stop into a fence and a pile of rocks in just under 5 secs, the impact that had, i came out with sore shoulders, sore neck and brused all over

would not want to think of an impact at twice that speed, OUCH

      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

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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)?

      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.
