G'day

Exactly - WTF? Most people dont have problems until you head north of 350kw, and AFAIK no-one has problems at <300kw. Something's not adding up.

Yep there is more to the story.

You could simply buy a 2nd hand stock auto, and install it and it should be totally fine.

sounds like the shops doing the "recos" have no idea, or you are abusing the transmission something severe.

I have a C4 in my 33. Was awesome till I broke it. Not sure what let go as yet as I havent touched the car since it happened. It has reverse and no forward gears.

I was running 475rwkw thru mine and 900nm

    • 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.
