Playdoh and Defender are not even in the same class, playdoh is a chicks shopping trolley and a defender is about the only purpose built serious offroader available ( troopy is another but so agricultural) . I would say if they are the to choices then stick with the prado as they obviously have no ...

Simple, fit a pod filter straight off the turbo intake. Did this to my surf as a temporary setup and turbo hiss is ridiculous. Nice growl off boost though. Maybe invest in a wank tap (blow off valve). Always funny to see the expression on an Evo driver's face when u pull up at the lights in a truck...

I've never heard of torsion bars sagging but you can adjust them either up or down, IFS 4runners can be adjusted from stock height up roughly two inches. After market torsion bars can be excessively stiff and ruin your ride quality. Note you will probably want to invest in some spacers to drop your ...

In the colour spectrum the colour blue will give you the furtherest amount of light, if it went to violet it'd go even further but the colour tint might be too much for some people. Blue and violet are the last colours to be filtered out that's why the Sky is blue, it also goes the deepest into wat...

http://www.toyotasurf.asn.au/techsite/diffbreathers.htm Landrover factory extended breathers work well, though they require some 'persuasion' to get the British thread into the diff housing. Other than that just take the stock breather down to your local hydraulics/air store and match the thread up...

I think the power required to run the supercharger would vary with the size and type (positive displacement, dynamic etc) of the supercharger.
