I recently had a bad experience with a 4terrain clutch in my Hilux with 2.8 and turbo on 32s. After 13 months and 20,000km of normal use with no towing, it started to play up. Warranty period is 12 months. So I took it to a shop to see if it was the clutch or otherwise. The pedal would not engage ...

3L Hilux idler pulley rubbing

I have a 97 Hilux, 2.8 Litre diesel. Have just put on a turbo and then had the clutch replaced.

There was a fellow on the Gold Coast that had a turbo on his petrol 80 series, it went like the clappers. He raced it in a Motorkhana once at Parklands, beat all except an Evo Lancer. I think he owned a turbo and tuning shop on the Coast, and it was his display car. Dont recall name.
