where do i splice it in the tacho? as it is part of the cluster... there are only the 4 plugs that plug in...?

Hey guys, i run a 1uzfe in a diesel surf. I have been running an aftermarket tacho but would like to use the standard cluster. I went out and got a petrol 4runner cluster (off ebay) and plugged it up and all is fine... just the tacho isnt working. I have a direct tacho wire that i was using for the ...

I thought Jap R-spec cars also have a lot more engine/braking mods then the US R-spec cars.

In the Nissan 200SX's the Jap R-spec's have engine mods whereas the US R-spec's only had cosmetic changes.

JDM silvia's comes with ball bearing turbos and are tuned for higher octane fuel.

where are people getting them from and what price are they roughly going at?

i have been trying to find some info on them as they look like a good tyre for the price... but little info is coming up...?

i measured mine all round... and my front left is 20mm lower than the rest of the car... im not sure if the torsion bars have already been wound up or not but could i turn the left front up to match the rest of the truck?

they guy im getting it off is a sponsor on nissansilvia.com. other people have bought turbos of him and they havent had any issues... so will see how it goes. These turbos have been installed a many drift cars and have seen competition use... Renowned tuner Dr. Drift also sells these at his shop... ...

my seals are also gone... on a 15min drive, 3/4 of my oil was pumped through the intake. i was lucky i didnt get stopped by the police

the turbo is sweet... it will bolt straight to the manifold... only a dump pipe will need to be made up and the lines.

ok guys... i think i have found my solution... they is a guy that sells brand new turbos (t25 style) with 12month warranty. I can get it for roughly $400. Now if the exhaust manifold flange isnt the same... i can get one made up right? and as im putting an exhaust on... the dump pipe will be sweet. ...

i did a search on the surf forums... they say... but i cant confirm... that the flanges are the same as the t25, t28 as on the silvia's (200sx's)

now... t25's pretty much grow on trees... so i will see if i can get a flange diagram

how much does it cost to get a flange made up?

sorry guys my bad... im also looking to do this so still researching.

also:

Check this guys site out. He has a killa surf. He has documented all his mods so you can see what u can and cant do.

i will also be adding a turbo back exhaust system... so that should help spool time...

i will make a few calls and see how readily the turbos are and what price/condition

would the ct20's of the prados be different to the ct20's in the surfs? different variations? like andrew said, i want more mid range oomph from the diesel... so the ct26 on the landcruiser would still probably be the best option... what do i want to achieve... the 1 million dollar question :twisted...

$600 was a guesstimate... but i know of a few places that rebuild them. (went through this with my other car... nissan 200sx... which was $800 just for rebuild) i think the biggest issue will be checking the seals... there are what is currently gone in my turbo.... shaft play can be checked. i will ...

toyota turbos have they own flanges... thats y i wanted to go for a ct26 cause im pretty sure they have the same flange... just different oil and water lines. i will look around for prices and quality and see... i know roughly to get my standard ct20 rebuilt and hi flowed it goin to be $600+... so i...

do they have the same hp rating?

the turbo in my surf is stuffed... and im looking to put a ct26...

so would the best thing to do would get a ct26 of a landcruiser?

It is a very common mod... 2in rear springs and a 2in lift via the torsion bars in the front. You will be able to go off road and they wont be that much stress in the front. Only if you do a 2in body lift that u might have stress on the front cv's, but but u can put a front diff spacer to lower it. ...

i did a search in google.... it does seem that they all have different part numbers....

Heres my surf:

Hi guys

I was doing a bit of searching and wanted to just make sure:

do both the 80 series and 100 series landcruisers run a ct26 turbo?

and if so, is it the same twin scroll ct26 on the st185 gt4 and mr2 turbo?

thanks
