Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I have the DSR 430 turbo on my safari(internal gate)with there exhast manifold also.3" exhast turbo to tail pipe. If I jam the waste gate closed I get about 24psi at just over 3000rpm. I normaly run 16-18psi approx 2200-2300rpm under load.egts are pretty low 550 max.boost starts about 1300rpm,10psi ...

so some turbo pumps have 10mm and some 11mm?

I'll have to get the number,looking at getting a turbo pump.

cheers

Does a GQ TD42T injector pump flow more than a non turbo injector pump?
the turbo pump has the boost compensator,is this the only differance?

Cheers

vehicle has full cert(inc sill cut,sliders,lift,drop boxs,lenghtened susp arms/panhards etc)I spoke to engineer before fitting sliders.

Could be different in Oz though

Chassis is made of 2 sections welded togeather from factory,(not the best welding either)

Cheers Shane

front diff is a Hi Pinion rear is not,so diff gears would be different

some people have put front diff head in rear,need to change carrier to suit axles etc plus other mods,so no not a streight swap like the toyotas

If there is a 4th one where do u mount it???

screwy

4 mounts

Cutting old sill off is a pain,hard to get the inner one streight,every thing seams to get in the way,only have a 4" + 5" grinder. I had a plate folded in a J shape which slip's over the outter edge and butts to the inner at 90 degres,that way your not trying to weld two thin edges togeather.I think ...

I have just welded a plate to chassis then weld the bar work streight to that. I have also done a sill cut so are able to mount the bars higher up the chassis by approx 50mm,this should help the ramp over when on a angle.not tested at this stage Hope this helps Shane http://i269.photobucket.com ...

When fitting the GU stlye bushes to the front trailing arm,which way do you face the small holes in the rubber part of the bush for max flex?
I was thinking have the holes streight up and down?

Cheers Shane

yer what ^^^ said,1 tank for diff lock and 1 for brake system.

I fitted manuel trans,needed some room so only have 1 now(has diff lock as std)

Shane

Is a factory Nissan locker rear axle the same as a std LSD axle?Lenght,spline etc?

Cheers Shane

question is the lo roof 12v patrol petrol or diesel? lo roof is petrol(LPG)hi roof body in very average conditon I may run 24v starter,winch,glow plugs,shut off solinoid etc I dont use the glow plug computer,I have a manual switch set up(glow plug computer crapped out and suffed a set of glow plugs ...

Im looking at buying a petrol LO roof LWB(has stuffed engine,12v)manual trans,diff lock etc I have LWB HI roof diesel (after market turbo,24v)that has a stuffed auto trans which I have removed.is a bit banged up in the body etc. was going to fit diesel engine to manual trans *need diesel fly wheel ...

Can the engine/trans (TD42) be lifted out as a complete unit inc transfer?

I was thinking Remove Rad/fan/crossmember/gear lever etc and lift out as complete unit.

If its a real bitch I can split the trans/engine

Shane

Cheers

Can anyone tell me if a Petrol tb42 manual trans well bolt up to a diesel TD42 motor?

Are the ratio's the same if it does bolt up?

Cheers Shane

the articulation is so much better the car doesn't want to lean as much anymore on flex, it feels alot more stable, its impressive to say the least. We did travel ramp tests before and after which i will get pics for you soon but here are the results 1790mm before the X-link 1990mm after X-link ...

Shane should have been in a LWB Safari? Correct,green LWB Hi roof Hippo(lift,35's,DIY turbo rest is how it came from factory).I didnt have it with me up worsley. http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj65/Clarkie007/Picture001.jpg?t=1231641591 http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj65/Clarkie007 ...

One of my mates has fitted a X-link to his shorty at the end of last year,while it does flex pretty well IMO the best gain is the better balance between front and rear axles.when driving over a log at a angle say,the body is less inclinded to move with the axle.all springs are captive at full flex ...

If its making 450hp the torque well be huge compaired to a petrol with same hp,I'd say it be in the mid 12's round 108-110mph with a few tweeks.

Best of luck

is it a Auto or Manual thats the biggest desider.

if its a auto I'd go the 4.6,be much better at cruiseing speed

Shane

that is correct tony, should be in a sealed box... what happens when you roll...battery acid to the face and eyes...doesnt sound fun.. Batterys are fully sealed,no caps,no vents etc I used these batterys for that reason. Have turned batterys up side down many times,no fluid leaks(not when in ...

made some small changes to intake system,moved batterys to behind rear seats which has given me room to change air cleaner system. Using air filter box from Ford courier(air filter approx 70% more surface area than std nissan one) snorkel goes streight into air box then intake on turbo,not finished ...

whats with this needing to rev thing in comp trucks,just change up a gear and use the grunt.The old pushrod TD42 wont rev but they seam to go alrite when tweaked,still wont rev but have plenty of grunt/torque.

Go the Big Block

454 is a great engine,plenty of torque and power down low which is good for 4x4(crawling club/fun truck) but not as a comp winch truck were higher speeds come into play not the best option IMO GQ's are pretty heavy in the front as it is,adding more weight not good. Would be very hard on suspension ...

Brad go with the 35's,they well get you much further than locked 31's by a long shot.

Dont listen to the man who doesnt give a shit...

Best of luck Shane

Are there any results from this event?

Cheers

Dave-Cicak Some great shots of the action there and very well written with lots of info(have found it hard to get pics and info of this event esp with the monsoon weather conditions causing havoc)we appreciate the effort you put in to bring us the shots/write up etc excelent work... Whats your web ...

as turps said ,the pipe with 2x 90 bends goes to bottom of factory air cleaner which has been repositioned and lifted so pipe can go under it.(pipe is approx 2 3/4" ) Tube coming out the side of air cleaner(3") goes to snorkel as someone said,you can see were it goes in first pic pipe coming out of ...
