Re: GU VS 80 or 100

15L isnt out of the question for a GU depending on what its towing, what mods etc...

But as for 20/100 out of the petrol. I have seen some down around 20-22 and lots that are closer to 24-28L.

Doing an extractor setup + unichip on 1FZ-FE and 2UZ-FE Cruisers is a pretty steady flow of work over ...

Re: whos fitted locktup rear springs

remove excess leaves and lift block, lower the front to the same height, do a body lift if you require the greater body clearance for tires or something.

with enough guard cutting/moving the front diff forward you should get 36's or 37's under a hilux easily, so i dont see why you need it so high ...

Either do it the right way (3RZ) or the real mans way (v8).


The ecotec, imo, is one of the worst motors ever made for a production car.

The 5l is a slug. You will be doing 30-40kph up hills with that much weight
