Outer Limits 4x4 Board

what is this suction valve you speak of? Also what is the recall on airbags I have not seen that one

The later you can get the better. I have an 08 and my clutch is still ok. Once again I was aware of the issues they had and drove it accordingly. I small lift is fine and will actually make them handle and feel better than stock imo. I don't really agree with the thai models being better either as ...

Depends on what you want to do with it. If you are after a 4wd for anything more than very mild offroad I wouldn't bother. If you want a comfortable, powerful road car that can take you up the beach and mild offroad tracks they are good. Heaps available suspension wise. Heaps of engine mods ...

know much about roll center suspension stuff?

prob not without re designing the rear suspension. It is just how nissans are, a lot of anti squat. Longer lowers (ie superior long arm kit) will help a lot.

A stroker version of this motor is even less likely to like high reving isn't it?

Was refering more to a bill not a part, but that is going to get off topic again ain't it.....lol


Carry on

Few part's ordered as a result: Forged Steel Crank: Knife edged, lightened (roughly 40% lighter than std) Man I can imagine a tru knife edge crank in one of these especially if your asking it to rev that high with 60psi up its ass would be asking for trouble? Might end up looking like a pretzel ...

Personally I have seen a lot more GU's with this problem. In fact I don't recall seeing any GQ's with it but after all the beer and years I may have memory fade lol GU's are probably more commonly overloaded these days as work trucks etc than GQ's so this may have something to do with it. Either way ...

Very very good point about bracing the coil mounts. It is not a matter of if they will bend and eventually break but when. Heavy gu's with airbag helpers seem to be the main culprit too. I am sorry I do not know the price of the sleeves. I think they are only relatively new I only seen one set ...

From experience (with the coil helper type bags inside the coil) they will not have any major effect on flex if set up correctly, especially with a lot of weight on board. It is not a lot different to running light coils in a light car and heavy coils in a heavy car. Generally the heavy car will out ...

This is what makes suspension so hard to get right as far as manufacturing goes, because everyone seems to like different things. Nobody could really tell you how to set the shocks for your vehicle as you are the one driving it everyday and know what you are comfortable with. Generally with the src ...

I am a guy from Superior if it makes any difference! lol

Feel free to post again with more info if you like.

When you say flogged out what do you mean. Is the car head shaking or is it just from a visual inspection. Biggest thing that will kill em is oil or diesel ie leaking from above from either steering box or pump etc. Other than that maybe check that the axle is located in the correct spot (panhard ...

this place is pretty good. http://www.ameproducts.com.au/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; In Brendale. We used to place pretty big orders for all sorts of different stuff and they came up with it. The Narva web site is pretty good if you are not sure what you are after as you can ...

What drivesafe has said is exactly right and catches a lot of people out. I have found for most 4wding camping in the weekend to week range a 100ah agm or thereabouts is best. Too much amp hrs and you think 'wow this is great I can run all my gear for ages without recharging.' Then when time comes ...

These motors will boost cut pretty early too and turbos run out of efficiency too. You put fuel in last. Get it to breath (ie much better intercooler and exhaust) The factory cooler is shit really Northside 4x4 have unichip capabilities with these that work well with boost cut defender unit also ...

I think it is mainly panhard related, but just check you have the arm in the right way. I have seen nissan rear trailing arms installed with the bush orientation wrong and it obviously loads up the bush heaps.

I no longer have it but I used to own a 4.8 manual. I put an exhaust with extractors on it, filter upgrade and a unichip and while it was good it was not really exciting considering the costs involved. I think it ended up with about 140kw at the wheels on 305/75/16 mud tyres. The 4.8 is a massive ...

After being down a similar road I would suggest you stop now and keep saving for a turbo. You will easily spend 2500 grand+ minimum for basic mods like exhaust and chip and filter etc then add heaps more for cams etc. You will get bored with it real quick and still not have the power you want. Turbo ...

There was a st safety pack that had abs too. ST-L or something like that.
Pretty sure this was from 02 aswell.

Just to confuse the matter.

I think you mean compounding duramax!

It was a handful before heath, I think mark webber may be retiring soon so maybe he could try and drive it for ya!!! ha ha ha

Have fun ya mad bugger

any more progress on this bar???

motor will handle ok but brakes are fucked. Even 265/75's kill the braking.
I have light truck ones but so are quite heavy I guess but you really notice it a lot. 285's would be horrible to stop.

Also try Custom Vehicle Fabrication (CVF) on Morayfield Rd.

Chris is the guys name. Does some nice work.

From what I have heard Dtronics will be no more and no longer available for sale (after stock) because of plug/wiring loom failures, no doubt because of cost cutting manufacturing.

Not much help to you but I think you may have some trouble finding a local fix especially now.

so that means the 105 rotors might fit?

The front caliper trick might be worth a try. Any more info would be awesome as the customer is at wits end trying to get his big heavy bitch of a thing to stop.

It has engine upgrades so even more important.

I can't remember if the v8 70 is five or six stud???

105 front callipers have larger pistons...on same discs...bolting them on makes for better brakes...

Can anyone confirm this works? We have a troopy that is in desperate need of some better brakes.

The rear disk idea is a good one too if it works.
