Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Disconnect the actuator rod from the wastegate.
exhaust will push the wastegate open and it wont make boost. much.

No harm taking the hose off, but it will be very gutless. It'll run lean and cold.

Not having a crack at you for running one, but at the industry for implying a return to centre damper is better than a normal damper. You have been misled as are thousands of people. The castor etc should encourage your steering to return to centre, not a spring secured with a couple of bolts. A ...

I ordered a GQ kit through United Fuel Injection. Not sure how long it took, but when I called in 2 weeks after ordering it the kit was there waiting for me.

Maybe they are too busy with supplying their big customers and don't put much effort into individuals.

any RTC damper is a bodge up. Fix your steering geometry properly. They should be illegal.

Yes, Yes, No apart from a sudden loss of power feeling if you overdo the low-pressure setting and perhaps if you rely on it you may still cook the engine in the time it takes to register the high EGT if you hit it repeatedly, no, no there is no flow it's just pressure applying force to a diaphragm ...

Save yourself $1000 to spend on something that will increase performance. It has issues, stock manifold with a box welded on will perform better.
One look at their dyno graph says it all.

Studs will foul on the rocker shaft. Have people found a way around this?

Also: clean you head and block with thinners before putting it together, not so much as a fingerprint on it.

the 9 inch have an odd shaped gear tooth profile, they dont take kindly to being run backwards if you need a high pinion, but they do sell reverse cut gearsets. The 9 inch tooth shape is more like a saw blade, where the nissan tooth shape is like the roofs of a row of houses. A nissan front diff 3rd ...

cfm = 2.5 x HP for petrol which will be running at AFRs of about 12:1
a diesel will be running about 20:1 AFRs.
you should run about 800 to 1000 CFM "rated" filter.
more in dusty conditions.
Maybe two of those ford filters in parallel?

this could be the first ever "performance" cam that is actually higher performance than the factory turbo cam. Obviously you don't want to hand the specs out but I am interested in whatever you are willing to share about the cam. I presume it's a roller cam and the lifter bores in the block have ...

Down south motorsports in the US. Sonny will valve for free to your specs. You will need corner weights and application, They also do one with a compression adjuster for Patrol. I wanted some for my cruiser but the only do 8" or 10", 12" etc and I need 9" cheers bru surely you can move one of the ...

Detroits are still available for a patrol, Harrop are eaton dealers. Eaton bought the "detroit locker" design and name. A harrop dealer's price is close to $1300 for one. so buying two to build a bitsa if you are getting trade prices is in the vicinity of $2600 probably cheaper to do something else ...

try it you never know you may jag it. A lot of performance "factory" calipers are identical apart from the casting, there is one in particular where the dimensions of everything is identical, except one says nissan and the other says subaru on the side. But generally it's only worth buggerizing ...

there are a couple of GVM upgrades aroudn for a patrol, it might be cheaper to upgrade yours and slip a manual box in it.
a LOT of stuffing around but might be worth it.

It's fine if you buy the right one there are a couple of different types. You need a GL-4 oil in a patrol box, not a GL-5. AFAIK its the sulphur compounds in the GL-5 oils which stuff the brass synchros. It takes a while to react as well, so people don't realise its the oil thats buggering their ...

Installing a locker is easier than installing diff gears. You do still need some heavy tools though. torque wrench: The crownwheel bolts need to be torqued up to 150Nm A transmission jack that can tilt a long way really helps getting the centre in and out of the housing (or cut a big V block for to ...

I race a GQ and found the heat coming through the floor immense, the whole transmission tunnel is so hot water steams instantly. I changed to redline synthetic gear oil and put a temp gauge in the PTO cover at the same time, the gearbox gets to just over 100 degrees but it feels noticeably cooler in ...

Not even td42 flywheels are the same as td42 flywheels.
the GU turbo motors are different.
I doubt very much a tb42 flywheels is even close to a td42 one. But I havent played with TB42s.

As someone who races a patrol, and is sponsored by a Brake company, I run the standard master cylinder arrangement with a manual bias valve. I set the bias up in reconissance in 2wd, then leave it alone. It's a BIG heavy car with large diameter wheels without much disc area, you NEED the boosting ...

the albins gearset is over $9000.
they do a conventional layout box now based on their supercar transmission, I havent priced one but expect it to be around $25k

Does anyone do a longer rear trailing arm with a new bolt on pivot point so as to not change the location of the diff? The longer arms would be good so that the tail shaft angles remain correct through out the suspension travel. Might have to look at changing over from my old arm and drop boxes to ...

I use the normal petrol engine pink one.
Dunno if it makes a difference but it stinks like cat p!ss so you know if you have a coolant leak immediately.

Seen plenty of comp vehicles hopping up and down on four 37 inch wheels and genuine 1000Nm engines without breaking them. As long as you don't abuse it I don't think 700Nm and a pair of 35s is going to bother it. Every broken input shaft I've seen in offroading is the driver getting a bit carried ...

Patrol box. There are about 5 different gearsets for them. Good for 1000Nm but with massive traction and hopping wheels you might hurt 2nd. If you want a really tough one Albins do a nice close ratio gearset for them (same as a TB48) but the gears cost about 9 grand. there are things you can do to ...

electric cutoff as you describe is perfectly acceptable for CAMS. I use a two pole waterproof pushbutton switch. one pole cuts power to the fuel pump solenoid and the other pole cuts the ground wire off the Battery isolator solenoid. reason for the two poles is the alternator will provide power to ...

It's also not hard to post it in the toyota section...
Do you want someone to fit it for you too, and bring the beer?

good idea for those that are in mud and water a lot.
You should be flushing your brake fluid every 2 years, then internal corrosion is not a problem.

Disc brake rear?
I bet you have a stuffed bearing in the back then.

The gascoyne dash gets some sort of permit to put offroad buggies on public roads. They don't even HAVE windscreens, indicators, low beam etc. I think it's still dodgy requiring rego even for transport stages. Road crossings can be handled without rego, hell, we've even had railway lines closed for ...
