any pics of the air box? how big is the air cleaner?

cheers mav

does any one have any info on the timing marks to set up a 2.8 timing belt

start with the basics the intake and exhaust gaskets could be leaking and need replacing, increasing boost build up time!

start with king pin bearings, cv's, steering links, and finally the box itself

some side movement is ok but end float is no good does it have any?

Hi, Is there anyone running a vp 5.olitre and turbo 700 out there? I am just finishin off some final pieces and having a few problems with transmission wiring and reversing lights etc. I would love to hear from people who have done this and what mods they have done as well thanks Alan is it a turbo ...

maybe a master cyl failing but sounds to me like contaminated brake fluid or air in brake system still.

when was the last time you checked the tappets???

there was a warning out a few years ago about landcruisers voiding the warrenty because they had dot4 fluid put in the brake system and it was stuffing the abs system!!!!!!

what do you use to support the intercooler ? just the hoses ?

you should use the 6.0 version rather than the 5.7 because the 6.0 has heaps more down low torque.

try taking off in third or fourth from a standing start with the hand brake full on, lay the boot into it and it should still stall out

my first guess would be a slipping clutch how many kms has it done does it do any hard work (towing ect.)

80 series gxl with 3f and gearbox h150f and 100 series v8 with gearbox h151f will the bellhousings interchange???

what about to an early 3f gxl what would be involved???? Gday The Lexus v8 is a 4 litre 32 valve motor called the 1uzfe. The landcruiser 1fzfe is in the same family of motors meaning the bellhousings should be thesame bolt pattern. One difference i know of is that the v8 has the starter in the ...

with electronic ignition the switching is done electronically so dwell is irrelevant. I have a 1990 4.2 LT petrol only Maverick. For a non technophile like myself, is the installation a DIY possibility, or do you recommend an autoelectrician to instal? And once installed, how do you check and adjust ...

are you using the auto with it???

what are the terminals on the alt ? any pics?

did you try draining some fuel from your tank to see if there is any shit in the tank, which could have blocked your filter again, also check the gause filter in the banjo fitting at the pump inlet not all have this. by the way what is the air filter like???
i always start at the cheapest fix first.

one point to mention, b100 (100% biodiesel) has a gelling point above your average australian winter temperature, so you can't run it during winter -- or at least, you shouldnt unless you're keen on it gelling in your fuel filter. biodiesel is the BEST thing you can ever run your 4wd on -- it's ...

What is the rear driveline angle like, the harmonics you can get on cruise at arround 90kms is hard on drivelines.

uj are fine and it aint lifted that much about 3inches (its a wagon)

I'm pretty sure there's a pattern you should follow, like drivers front then passenger rear etc. etc., I read it somewhere ages ago but can't find it again, got a gregories manual handy it probably says it in there? I've got one somewhere but can't find it after moving house! :roll: standard for ...

has any one had any problems with pinion bearings in the rear diff on their gq??? i've just done the second centre in 18 months.

I also went to Performance ignition in Mitcham today, explained what i need and they suggested modifying my dizzy to electronic for around 500 and then a decent coil, they are fairly confident that it will do a reasonable job with low boost. Dont know why they would tell you boost is an issue due ...

you could always pull the arms out give them abit of a clean and put something like armour all on the bushes to make them look like new and take it back for inspection, if thats all they picked they will probably look underneath and see the new looking bushes and pass it .

Agreed - first point of elimination. Is there anything specific about the cap on a diesel - i.e. can I get one from Repco / bursons / etc or is it a Nissan $$$ job?[/quote]

they are the same, the cheapest way is to borrow someone elses cap first to see if it is the problem.
