Outer Limits 4x4 Board

make sure you've got a good fuel filter setup. cos they dont like having any amount of water in the fuel..
we just gave a customer an $11000 bill for a new supply pump and 8 injectors. mainly because the fuel was shit and they drove it until it stopped...

yeah, 25x25x6mm is what i used up there /\

if i remember rightly. toyota released an article at toyota training explaining to us that there was an adjustment at the injector pump. for people that wanted a bit more power that were happy to use a bit more fuel. should try and find it. something about a boost compesator or something. cant ...

yeah, they work great. one of my arms was a bit bent before i started. so i straightened it in the press at work. welded it up and haven't had a problem yet. except some of the paint has come off from stones and dirt roads

yeah i think i spent about $20 all up for all the arms. bit of 3/4 all thread, 3 nuts and 600mm of 6mm angle. cut one of the nuts in half to make the lock nuts and presto.

i used 6mm angle and stitch welded it. http://i873.photobucket.com/albums/ab297/ashjamesbrown/Image186.jpg http://i873.photobucket.com/albums/ab297/ashjamesbrown/Image184.jpg i also made my top arms adjustable. http://i873.photobucket.com/albums/ab297/ashjamesbrown/Image178.jpg http://i873 ...

35's or equivelant in BFG KM2

woah 3 people said diff gears at 8.22pm... thats freaky

or maybe even getting diff ratio's. get 4.6's to bring down to standard.

wow that Zoook guy is really funny

yeah upgrade wiring is a good idea, but upgrading to a halogen insert type light assembly is worth it just as much.
especially if you are still running old style sealed beams.

possibly not. depending on the size of the vehicle and winch. under alot of load, as in couple of layers on the drum and pulling 2 1/2 tonne. your going to draw somewhere around 380-400 odd amps

I think what Tweek is saying is. High Engine Temp is not going to directly affect EGT's, they will increase but not as dramatically as the engine temp has. only a small percentage. high engine temp may seize pistons etc but it won't cause big increases in EGT's Whereas a high EGT's will cause a ...

gotta love it

yeah usually accompanied by a large incline and a fair few revs

Thats if the 1hz has been turboed of course.

1HZ's have an issue with steep hills. Couple of friends on multiple occasions have had the same thing happen. one on a brand new $8k Toyota long motor. all have had to do with overfilled oil. not sure why. Think it may have something to do with there are only a couple of spots where the oil can ...

cooler air on any forced induction motor is always going to help.
might only make 2hp extra but its still a gain.

a friend recently cleaned out his intercooler off a TD42Ti. inside and out. dropped about 70-80degrees in egt.

Yes that is also a possibility Nastytroll.

It could be several things. Simple thing to do would be put the vehicle in 4wd and have a hubs locked. Jack the front end up and try spinning one wheel while holding the other. If there is a metallic grinding/crunching noise coming from just behind the wheel. Its more likely a CV has blown. Its ...

Nice Job, looks great.

they run 17.3:1 comp ratio. which is fairly low i guess.

yeah im not sure. i was looking at egts and they didnt seem to get that hot. under full throttle it got up to about 480 before i was going to fast.

when they for a burn off for the particle filter the egt get up to around 700 at the filter. pretty crazy

I didnt believe it at first, but talked to a few of the tech guys confirmed that its correct. they do run a variable geometry turbo so it definately is possible not to mention a front mount intercooler. i'll have to print off a graph from the scan tool. when i get back to work.

ahaha look what i have started. all this to make a wank factor sound come from a hilux diesel. Little useless fact for everyone, as i work for a Kia Dealership. Test driving the new Kia Soul CRDi the other day with the computer on it, just looking at specs and what not. at an idle they make 15psi of ...

OK. well the setup the vehicle has at the minute. is a full 3in bandrel bent exhaust from turbo to just past the tansfer (where the exhaust ends). it runs around the 13psi mark which gets to about 14 at around 4200. it also has a topmount intercooler off a soarer or supra.

HEAD GACKY!!

My Boss has been fiddling with his 3L hilux. He has a full 3inch exhaust from dump to exit (ends at the transfer) and his runs 13psi and it loves it. tows his camper trailer with ease. the other day his egts went up to about 610 which is a little high. but it usually sits around the 560 mark. Dont ...

Just wondering if it is possible to put a bov on a 3L diesel hilux and does anyone have any diagrams on the setup of one?
