Outer Limits 4x4 Board

For your budget, get a petrol.

I just put extractors and 2 1/2 exhaust on mine, really happy with how it goes, yep theyre thirsty. I get about 22-25 on LPG

Yep, make sure its a genuine Nissan one.
I stuffed around with 3 aftermarket ones that didnt work properly, before putting a genuine one in with no drama.

Fill it up and work out your consumption

Hi,
Ive got a 4.5 dual fuel GU. Economy and range are crap, but i love it, and its cheap to run on gas.

My question is, how much better will an exhaust and extractors make it?? THe exhaust needs replacing anyway.

What size exhaust??? what brand extractors???

Thanks i advance

Brett

Hasnt everybody got a Haffy??

I have

Cheers

definately buy a cheap 95 plus 80 series, swap parts and sell your 3f as bits..or keep it and use it for your insurance policy, save 1k per year and put your new cruiser up 6 inches :idea: Andrew Out of interest, what is different about a post 95 80 series 4.5 litre, as opposed to the pre 95 4.5 ...

Luxy (off here) has a 2000 3.0litre turbo dual cab that has done over 400,000kms and still is totally original.. Runs like a treat.
You wont get an answer from him though, hes in it, crossing the simpson

I paid $16500 for a 99 dual cab, 3.0 diesel. Canopy, winch bar, dual batteries, UHF, cruise, rear drawers, rear bar, heaps of extras and only 110,000 kms, genuine. Excellent condition too. I love it.

Sorry, i wasnt really referring to brand, ive had a DTS on a GQ and it was great, i meant can a turbo off a 2.8 for example go on a 3 litre?? Is a GQ one too big ??? etc..

Sorry for confusion.

Gday, its a 5L.
cheers, Brett

Any one know where you can get these http://www.consoles.com/Images/Accessories/maplightdouble.jpg Department of the interior sell them for $32 but thought there may be other places They were in my department of the interior overhead console, and were excellent... Prob worth the $32 in my opinion..

Ive never had a Lokka or Lockright, but ive had airlockers, and they rock.
Still saving for them for the Lux though....

Gday, do you know which turbos can be put on a 99 IFS 3 litre (5l) hilux?

I often see various ones for sale off various models, but dont know which ones can be interchanged...

Thanks in advance.
