Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Please dont bash the cat out. A decent high flow cat will not restrict power noticably at the level the Feroza puts out. Bashing them out is a dodgy hack way of doing it. They are not that dear.

Layto....

nope sorry have to respectfully disagree with you there, even a high flow cat restricts ...

wound mine 2" when i first got the Fezora ...but like everyone else has noted .. the 2 inches of lift dosnt outweigh the loss of down travel, my Fez handled worse off road, I ended up running 30" M/T's and doing a 2" body lift, this gave me 1.5 inch lift at the diffs (going from stock 27" to 30 ...

yes, I am lucky enough to own one of the last of the gen 1's (NG TD intercooled with rear LSD and coils, plus the intercooler bonnet :lol: ) Having owned both the 4D55 2.3L and the 4D56 2.5L, I cant see why an intercooler wouldn't fit. Then again, why would you want to fit an intercooler? The ...

I like it though, has character :lol:

LOL that they have.... that they have.

also totally underrated off road too, if your lucky enough to get one with the rear LSD you'l be surprised where they go, My old girl shows up far more modern trucks all the time, and with a set of 31 muddies and the ...

Well, there's not too many of them here, and fewer people who may have tried what you're considering.

Have you visited a wrecker or an engine importer, to see if you can get a look at both engines?

Pretty sure from what I've read that a 2.5 is just an overbored 2.3 so in real terms it should ...

just a thought... check that you have got a decent earth from the motor to the chassis, chassis to body..and from battery to body dont think it would be your starting issue but it may cause the power lead on the battery to heat up if your trying to push a lot of current (amp) draw down a badly ...

Generic Runva 5000lb winch (snatch blocked though) .. 750 AH battery and standard alternator, pulled my old Feroza beastie (and many other bigger trucks) out of the mud no problems

the easiest (and safest) way to check for a LSD if your stickers gone .. jack both rear wheels off the ground (use axle stands not just the jack!) and spin the wheels .. if it's an Open diff the opposite wheel will spin in the opposite direction to the one your turning, if it's LSD they should both ...

did they come out standard with a lsd not sure if i have one or its just worn out if its worn out can you get them made tighter to work more like a locker if so that would be great.

thats the 64 million dollar question :D the easiest (and safest) way to check for a LSD if your stickers gone ...

if they are anything like the difference between New Zealand (land of the Jap Import!!) New Paj's and Jap Imports

The main difference is the level of trim and accessories they have .. Most Jap models came fully loaded with ACond, Electric Windows, power Steering, Fabric instead of cheap vinal ...

Conputer from daihatsu charade 1.3(95PS) 4x4. Revs go then to 7.500 instead of 6.250 (stock feroza).

However at those rev's your not producing anymore tourqe, and driving offroad with those sorts of revs will lead to breakages ... you need to be looking at ways of producing more tourqe rather ...

Hi mate,

Feroza F310. The water pump is held on behind the timing belt. Which is a PITA for someone who is still learning about mechanics.

the water pump was the last thing i did on my Fez before i sold it, as others have said .. easy but fiddly, all due to the two dam bolts hiding under the ...

chears mate
help is much appreciated
also did u have any clutch problems with yours?
the first 4x4 session that i had the clutch died
havnt had nay problems since
but my mates one went through a few clutches aswell

any make 4wd is harder on clutches than road cars .. and daihatsu's clutch is ...

can u just wind up the torsion bars
or do u need to get new shockies and so on
just reali want to make it look a bit more beastie

ps i would reali like to be ...

Cant comment on the Gen 2 HOWEVER my Gen 1 Paj does the same thing ... lots of body roll, vauge steering, wandering etc... and yeah ive done the new shocks, bushes, tie rods, ball joints, and alingment route too.


have given up and called it "A Pajero thing" ;) :roll:

might be a boat on road but ...

just make sure it has been serviced EVRY 5000 KM on the dot ... the 2.5 TD has a habit of self distructing if maintanance hasnt been kept up, the motors are inherantly dirty and sooty and NEED thier oil and filters changed reguarly.

The 2.5 is a bit of a hand grenade either they go bang around the ...

well i dont recall any shudder so it should be fine....i still need to take it to a mechanic for revision so is there any specific checks i can ask him to do to make sure no damage was done?

Also, out of curiosity what is a confortable highway cruising speed in the td rocky? 110? 120? i hear they ...

Hey guys, I have been reading alot of the info in this forum and it has been very helpful..! Im down in Panama and have come across this 99 Rocky beauty

I know you guys surely dont speak any spanish, so the story is 99 2.8TD ...

(have to fit 2 kids + gear in somehow).

Thats the single reason i had to sell my Feroza :( .. 2x kids, handbrake + recovery gear + Camping gear meant there just wasnt enough room in the Fez, or my 6 foot tall son was jambed into 6 inches of legroom. (im tall and had to drive with the seat right ...

Please check, I think the terios does not have a low range
severely limiting 4x4 capability. although Im not sure.

No low range but they do have center diff lock (that turns it into a normal 4x4 in hi ratio) and will go anywhere a Feroza can go in High range, my wife drove one for almost a year ...

oppps double post

well.. I ended up going to see thee dude at the brake place and asking him for bolts to fit. The threads have been stripped :?
his technique would be to use the oxy and heat the drum up around the center... then hit it with a hammer to 'spring' it off.
I'll try that next week with the map gas ...

see below

Its been a while since I have posted here, but it seems no breakthroughs have been made.
I find my feroza goes very well at the moment, with only a 50mm lift and 31in Muddies.

So..a couple of questions down alternate routes.... ;)

How easy is it to find a feroza LSD in australia?

Can the LSD be ...

mine was round (not genuwine Diahatsu part tho) f&*%king a$$%$ thing to fit though, why oh why did Daihatsu design it so you have to take the cam belt cover off to get the waterpump off for the shake of 1 frigging bolt it turned a 15 minute job into a 3 hour job.. while your replacing the water pump ...

JUST LIKE RIPPING OFF A BANDAID,,ONLY HURTS FOR A LITTLE WHILE>>>
the biggest problem with me selling the FATROZA is that the guy isnt picking it up until march 09,,, so Ive been playing in it... its now back at the pannel shop again .......WOOOOPS

LOL .. yeah still have the bald spot .. oh BTW ...

My baby is gone :cry: However it was sold to a lady that will use it offroad rather than a shopping trolley :) she came around yesterday after seeing it on the interweb thingie, took it for drive, came back and litraly without a word handed me the full amount in cash.

soooooo Im off 4b shopping ...
