Outer Limits 4x4 Board

godzilla is just the term used for an RB26/30 (RB not shitty VL mototrs, just a full built 3 litre block with the 2.6 heads) that is producing 600PS at the wheels... people have taken that and now call every fargin skyline gtr a godzilla... Godzilla actually was a reference to the Gibson Motorsport ...

You can buy an adaptor hose that will allow you to empty a BBQ Gas bottle into the LPG car type filler. From memory they're on ebay for about $50.


I think they normally call them decanters....

Well, don't you have an inspection cover?

$10 says clucth. Broken input shaft would have made a loud bang.

I have them. Yes it is illegal. My insurance company knows and doesnt seem to care, although they havent had to pay out on a big accident. 33"s the cops dont seem to blink at. 3"'s they do, but it depends on condition of car, driving behaviour etc. To be perfectly legal you need to keep your tyres ...

i think people are wondering HOW these cars are registered. Dont you ever have to get a car inspected in Qld for registration renewal? Or can you just pay the renewal every year and it stays registered ? Im not talking about inspection for modifications or engineering, just a registration ...

An icv needs to be more than just a Patrol with a bit of suspension lift... but when you're talking about completely redesigning the front and rear suspension for competition work (5 link front for instance), dropping a 350 chev and auto in it, low range aftermarket tcase gears, potentially using ...

Potentially ANYTHING can be engineered with enough money... thats what Individually Constructed Vehicle regulations exist for. If you work at a shop, and it's a promotional vehicle, and the labour costs are free (downtime, shop owner etc) then the cost of meeting the ICV requirements is greatly ...

Front locker is available, and rear LSD. If you need more than LSD+LOCKER you have the wrong car anyway. Ok, I went out 4wding with Chimpboy a bit when he had the MU. His unlocked, no LSD, on 32" muddies didnt go everywhere, but it went pretty much where unlockered vehicles can go. Sure my vitara ...

I copped major \hassles for 31's.... on a zook. Never been grabbed for the 33"s on the patrol, but 33"s + 2" lift looks pretty much stock anyway

It IS a 1.8 litre mazda. From memory it's a K8.


As such, there are a range of engines which can fit, including v6's and 2.2 turbo efi engines.

In a vitara box and tcase, 4H and 2H use the same bits in the gearbox, except for the bits that 4H and 4L share. So, testing 4H is kind of pointless - just test 2H and 4L. Testing 4L should be done one a loose surface with hubs locked. Potentially you can do really REALLY low speed 4L in a straight ...

Nay

Ok, i know how to replace a window regulator if thats the part that is broken. I thought it was actually a plastic cog that breaks in them for some unknown reason. Dunno where I got that idea from. Suffice to say, easy job to fix, just a bit of stuffing around. Guess it's worth pulling the switches ...

Mine are now rooted... same questions. What do I need how much money and effort?

My gass kit fitting both the petrol filler and the gas filler are under the petrol tank cap. They had to slightly move the petrol one and remove the plastic cap holder.

Thus if the GQ and MQ trapdoor are the same size it definately can be done. If you need a shot of it let me know.

More importantly what manual 5 speed gearbox has the same input shaft as a c4.....

Where shadow? I have to do my maverick and also get the missus' car sorted.

Still didnt even give an idea of state.

At what point do you give up and put a V8 diesel in it?

2" spring and chop rear quarters. Space forward front diff. If you intend to keep 33"s, shave diff housings for a little extra clearance? Snake or similar front bushes for extra flex even if they flog out quickly. Considering the size of the diff pumpkins and the central rear diff... clearance is ...

Some flasher cans come on and then flash off and some come on in off mode and flash on.

From model to model you may notice differences like that.

It sounds like its flashercan.

Have you tried hazards? This would eliminate issues to do with the indicator switch itself.

It sounds like it's pretty clear you've made your decision and the 4runner has to go. In that case, good luck hunting for your new truck. If you get the right GQ it will have a factory rear difflock like my Maverick did. If you get the wrong one you should still have a very very capable LSD. For a ...

What about just locking the front of the 4Runner? Have you done that yet? In the end flex isnt what gets you through things, it's traction. And a locked IFS front will still drive through stuff with one wheel in the air quite happily that Solid Axle stuff will fail to acheive without a locker anyway ...

Petrol tb42 should get somewhere around 16l/100km on the highway and 20-25l/100km city cycle (depending on traffic and driving style). Thats about the figures I used to get, and I wasnt exactly driving for economy. I'm getting 480km out of my LPG tank (but only using about 85l gas out of my 92 litre ...

Looking very good

SWB ones a lot of the LPG places were quoting me up to $1500 extra on a conversion for the dual fuel tank and installation. I dont think you'll find too many thrown out on a scrapheap ones.....

You can buy aftermarket swaybar disconnects or extended swaybar links... both will improve your onroad travel without compromising offroad too much. As I have REALLY soft springs I'll probably go back to having both on - with a disconnect on each end. Currently I'm only running disconnects at the ...

If I hadnt already got something else I'd grab it in a flash. Only ones around when I was looking wanted $500+. $300 is cheap.

And yeah I agree with most of the tube bar comments too.... Hence no tube bar on the back of my rig. It's a personal preference thing though.

sorry to ask but whats the crack with all this mod plating? over in the uk you can pretty much do what u want aslong as it passes an MOT n you can get insurance, so anything goes really :D Mod plates are required to enable you to pass a Roadworthy Certificate inspection (RWC). Thats the equivalent ...

I'd have muddies on over bald road tyres....
