Outer Limits 4x4 Board

300-800 for the cylinder head,not the cylinders. The shop that's doing the head is very good and we use them for doing all our heads at honda. Yeah i've already been warned about the precombustion chambers, the reckon about 25 bucks a peice plus fitting and machining. Got a mate who's a diesel ...

No point muckin' around! I had to do something before those bloody vigalanty greeny 4wd hating people report me. Uhm, not exactly sure what's caused it, it's not all of the bores, just 3 4 and 6. The injectors that came out of those cylinders are in a pretty sorry state of afairs so maybe they've ...

Hey fellas, decapitated the patrol tonight, easiest head i've ever removed(nowhere near as much crap boleted to it as a honda). Bores are glazed and the thing's pretty heavily sludged (in my opion it is) Got a price today on havin' the head reco'd, 300-800 bucks, depending on what is required. I'm ...

Cheers fnqcairns sounds like a good idea, i'll probably have a go, nuthin to lose, if it needs a rebuild then it needs a rebuild. The smoke came back today but seems to be more white than anything. One question though,if you're getting white smoke from diesel fuel,will it smell like burning oil? th ...

It's just about to hit 300k, haven't done a comp test yet (gotta get hold of a gauge from somewhere) I'm not overly concerned about it as it appears to be behaving itself today. Still like to find out what it is though.

Yep, checked all the filters. One thing i forgot to mention earlier, both times this has happened, it's been while out playing. Maybe having the thing on some steep angles is allowing oil into the breather system? I don't know. Just took it out and gave it a bit of a hard time and the smoke seems to ...

Hey, I know there's a few posts on smokey td42 engines but just thought i'd ask again incase anyone has some new suggestions. The td42 in question gets a fair amount of blue/white smoke out it's arse end after idling for a short period of time and then giving a bit of a rev, it reaks of oil. I've ...

Read an article in 4wd monthly a few issues back, don't know if the power gains are really worth the hard earned coin for the setup. They were conservative amounts of gas injection though, heard of people running much higher percentages with big perfomance gains but no good for engine life.

hey, just checked out the other thread where 3 grand was quoted, is that still the going price

Tidy lookin trucks mate. do they come with a blue plate? Mine is black over silver and am seriously looking into having it cut just like the yellow and red one you posted pictures of. i'll give ya a bell during the week sometime.

cheers for all the replies fellas, all points will be taken into account. I definately agree that cheaper isn't always better but i just don't wanna get stung is all. looks like i've got some ringing around to do. thanks heaps.

cheers mate, i'll give him a buzz

i thought $7500 was a bit rich, thats without a tray. oh, i'm in brissy by the way.

Hey, anyone know roughly what is should cost to have a GQ wagon cut into an extra cab ute? been quoted 7500 bucks. i seriously want to do it but not for that price. cheers.
