Ok sorry to keep this thread alive, but I emailed POTN as they currently sell the Blitz kit and this is the response I got

Hello,

Sorry we dont currently ship outside of the U.K its prob easier and cheaper to source the parts seperatly as it works out easier and alot cheaper as thats how ive done my nissan 200sx

Thanks

POTN

What do you guys think about that? If it is easier as he says it would be good for me as it won't hit me as hard finacially doing bits at a time, however I still have the problem of knowing where to look for these parts.

* Blitz Compressor Kit for ZZE123 (Item Code: 10132): 545400Yen (= currently A$5929)

We guess this product would weigh around 45kg and if this is the case, estimated shipping cost from Japan to your address in Australia would be approximately A$450 by international air courier (excluding import duties).

So im guessing with duty & GST added you would be looking around $8k max.

nice little profit the guys are making selling it for $10k

Lol yea nextmod gave me a much more reasonable ballpark figure of 7.5 - fits nicely under my credit card limit :)

Will probably look at ordering around July when my tax return comes in to help buffer all the expenses that come with doing something like this. Then it will just be a matter of getting Angelo's mech to do the install...or taking a few days around a weekend off and trying to do it myself - all good.

Noobish question - how much of an increase can I expect in power, 30-40%? - yes it will

my personal thoughts is the car will go from the 105-110 mark upto about 160-170.

However it also depends on wat else u do as other mods might let u get more juice out of it.

More then likely after I get the blitz I will start shopping for a PFC to get a real nice tune out of it. This car (think it's Sleeper's) had 153kw @ wheels with the Blitz kit although not sure what else he had at the time of the tune - that and its a different car. He managed to get another 10kw with extractors and an Apexi ECU.

blitz do make a kit for the 1ZZ.

Angleo has one for his 1ZZ.

Speaking of which, I'm looking for one myself (or a TRD one...)...

I'm finding it really hard to find one...

Are Nextmod the guys to go through? Any suggestions?

I knew that, hence I'm having a really hard time finding one...

Been searching a lot of US forums to no avail so was wondering if anyone had any leads for me to follow...

      Wobble at the front

      Vibration under acceleration is quite commonly due to a failing CV axle. I had it happen on my old Aurion where coasting would be fine and under acceleration/load it would start to vibrate quite violently.

      Brake issues

      Had the rear rotors machined. So far have travelled under 10k kms and the problem has come back, albeit not as bad. Will have a chat with the guy who machined the rotors and DBA also. Maybe need to replace with genuine Toyota items.

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      Hi Ross, we have a 2013 Landcruiser. Played with various oils and concluded that 5W30 Synthetic is the best option. Nulon seems to be on special often, GW is also good. Castrol Magnatec not really suitable for a diesel. Penrite is also good but try and stick to a full synthetic. No real need to change oil at 5000 Kms unless you worked the engine towing. I found that the oil level dropped when using the gearbox to slow down like you do in a manual. Other then that no oil use at 140k kms. Best oil is AMSOIL, but unduly expensive. Controversial but I swear by it is a 'catch can'. If you don't have one, get one but the right one for the car. Initially I was skeptical about its purpose but am sorry I did not get one from the beginning (new). If you check the design of the engine, the cam chain run just below the PCV valve. IMHO this promotes oils being flung into the PCV valve and hence the inlet tract. A catch can will catch that oil - no pun intended.

      rear wheel arch hole covers (3rd row seats removed)

      I ordered the Booxe Gap Caps from South Africa. Way better quality than the ones from Nautica. A little more expensive but looks way better installed. FYI one 3rd row seat weighs 15.4kg's that's a weight saving of nearly 31kgs with both removed.

      2013 Kluger grande Bluetooth music issues

      I have a 2011 Grande and it is not possible to play music via the bluetooth without using the aux connection. I bought this product which makes it a wireless bluetooth experience. https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0BG2GMH8S?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title This device connects to your phone via bluetooth and connects to the car via the aux connection. For me, once the car starts it all connects up, I say Hey Google, play music and the car plays music without having to connect my phone to any cables.

      2010 MANUAL Prado with high speed acceleration hickup

      I have a 2010 manual Prado with 196,000 km that has excellent service history Injectors were done at 130,000 km and today I replaced the fuel filters as a first step for this issue. The car pretty well drives perfectly and I have no issues with it Other than if I'm sitting at 110 km an hour and put my foot down it hesitates for a second like a cough. It only does it at this speed. If I'm sitting on 100 and accelerate it doesn't do it and same with any other speeds like 60 or 80 put my foot down it's fine, only does it at 110. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      My 2008 Sahara has 630,000 km on original engine and injectors. I run Gulf Western Top Dog 10w 40 semi synthetic oil, spec is CJ4 low Ash . Last EGR inspection at 400,000km revealed no soot. Engine still has same oil pressure as new and great fuel economy....Top Dog oil is for heavy duty truck diesel engines, not cheap but neither is a new engine..20K plus.

      2013 Kluger grande Bluetooth music issues

      Hey, can anyone help? We have a 2013 Kluger grande, Bluetooth iPhone and calls work well through factory radio. To play music we have an aux cord plugged in. Anyone know how to just Bluetooth music from phone through factory stereo? It’s weird we can Bluetooth calls but not music. Thanks for your time and help.
