When we first fitted it and took it for a test drive it was running 8/9 psi.. we then noticed a hell of alot of oil coming out of the return pipe (forgot the gasket :roll: ) ... we put on the gasket, took it for another test drive, and ...

any thoughts?

i have a MU, and have been posting on here for a little while

lol yeh i wont be

she not he!

well i just rang a diesel specialist/mechanic and they are booked out well into next month! but ive managed to get it booked in for friday next week... they are just going to do a service and check the whole thing over... costs $180. does that sound reasonable or should i go somewhere else?

thanks again for the advice!

have had so many people telling me all different things about diesel engines its starting to do my head in

i could always do what the guys at livinglow are doing body drop it and chuck in a 5L v8 engine

yep i posted a few photos in the members section ;) i bought the MU as is.. all ive done is put in a boost guage and my stereo :P i think its a jackaroo scoop?? and ive been looking for diesel specialists in the brisbane area to take it to but with no luck. i think there's a place in Brendale??? the ...

haha no way those rims are NOT on the MU! they're 20s.. and WAY TOO BIG!!! thank god i seen the light and didnt buy them :lol: i plan to do a bit of off roading... and it has a fair bit of pull straight off at the lights! its funny you mention the gearbox... i have this feeling it prob doesnt have ...

no attitude there.. and definately no "slanging" off anyone. i apologise if you found that post offensive in some way?

sure he was only trying to help, and i appreciate the time and effort put into his reply. but the comments made about my previous car etc were unneccessary.

just forget i even asked

:roll: i fail to see how my "ricer" has any relevance to you OR this thread ... but anyways... it already has a 2.5 exhaust, boost controller, k&n air filter. it doesnt blow smoke. it has low kms, and drives fine. bit of a slug when there's traffic around but open road it goes good. up hills, it ...

it has an intercooler from the 3.1 and the boost has been wound up...

im undecided what i want to do! engine swap or bigger turbo.
