Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Good to hear its sorted.

Yeah fuck waiting for one to cool down too! I've owned 4-5 60 series. Always carried a spare never had to use one! Carry the spare watch a YouTube tutorial, pack the tools & rest peacefully.

I'm looking for a drivers side cylinder head for a 5VZ 1997 3.4 Prado Engine.

Willing to pay $300ish

Shit happens. Time for a change, disturbing it probably caused it to fail but it would have failed anyway. Probably on a track. 100ks from nearest town. On a stinking hot day. When you need to get back to work. Missus in the car blaming you for not maintaining it / spending too much money on it ...

I think you have some competiton Bru. Saw a single cab iveco in beige, big Hancook mudders, triple battery bank, looled like optimas. Pre wired at the back for heaps of fittings. Rear winch. Sahara bar copy ( looked really good ) looking like it was off to get a body. Had a little sticker on guard ...

My point was that the pros are also the cons. It is subject to personal differences.

Pro: Has solid front axle, great for hardcore off road
con: has solid front axle, crap for on road handling and ride.

Pro: big comfy wagon
Con: giant whale that is difficult to park/navigate through tight tracks ...

Your G A Y as fuck! Ner!

Your just wierded out because ROVER's are now more popular!

If the EVOQUE had a HONDA badge on it you would see one in every driveway.

Beats my office anyday!

Bugger! Just typed a long post and got logged out at work!

FZJ105r Are fantastic cars. Yes they will use a lot of fuel. 13l / 100ks on the highway 18l / 100 around town so it's only towing or soft sand where it will climb above 20l. I had an 80 with a chip and an exhaust and you can get that down ...

The earlier the better!

Although the EVOQUE and the 06 onwards Rangie's are pretty cool IMO

Nah heaps around mate I have some and I saw your ad but didn't bother to contact you as you where in Sydney.

I'm on my 2nd 1FZ auto. Fuel is 16.8 around town auto driving normally.

Towing or soft sand it escalates quickly though.

You can make them better with a good computer and an exhaust. They are very rich and tuned to last 1mil ks from Toyota. Valve stem seals can be a problem. Solid Axle front too ...

So is the factory turbo engine in the GU stronger?

How do you tell if it's genuine factory turbo motor? Have they got different rover covers?

Also what sort of fuel economy do you get empty around town in a stocker?

Good point and he is only at the Coast so not far from the OP'er.

If there was a build thread it would be in the members.

I don't think anyone has a build yet.

Cheers scanas. That's a big trailer to be pulling around off road. Haha. That set up would be good and maybe the tinnie on the roof but I've got a grand raid SIB. Amazing how that 78 just keeps pulling.

I've have friends with utes that have done a radiator the air bleed point cracked and leaked from the top tank, another mate in a Ute did a water pump as it was leaking from the telltail. Rear brake pad wear is excessive at times when the vehicle is used as a 4wd and the handbrake is sh!t.

I can't ...

Don't worry about the stability they are fine.

Check out the Gall boys videos on youtube if you are worried.

Landcruisers don't have handbrakes... There is a lever you pull but I think it must be an optional extra we don't get in Australia

Conversion time, all the R motors are horrible fuel sucking, gutless POS.

3ltr V6 petrol yota and box should do the trick.


Do you mean the 3.4L EFi V6 from the later model Lux's ? or is there a 3L as well ?

Not up on the yota stuff.

Cheers

Yeah Aussie 4runner had a 3lt V6 (3vz)

Take the ...

I wanted graphite as I think it will look great with the green in my logo, and want to run silver as standard issue - generally as it hides the dirt so well.

I have been advised time and again by Iveco not to get colours - as everyone orders white, so it will be a try and see thing.

Mine will be ...

GQ Patrol SWB 6.2 chev diesel $4000

Not sure if it's yours 4WD26 but that front bar looks wrong.

In my unqualified opinion the tube needs to be an inch thicker and the design could be a bit nicer on the eye too.

Bru will you try any colours ie silver? White is great for scratches and I know you'll probably give yours a good time ...
