Outer Limits 4x4 Board

go onto the Bussman website to work out which 1 suits you best. There are different configurations available and that Bellanco site doesn't have a lot of info. I can get the number off mine if you need it but it may not be the same as what you want. Try this link http://www.cooperindustries.com ...

I only ever use a diode relay if its a circuit wired to a plc or ecm. 99% of wiring that the average 4x4 home handyman will do won't be so it doesn't matter which way the coil is wired in. If your playing with diode relays chances are your smart enough to look at the schematic that is etched into ...

This is the gauge I use. Bit different to how most people go about it, but I wanted to simplify and keep it neat and not cluttered. Only prob is it has to be ordered from the states.

If your looking at a rebuild you could consider getting the pistons ceramic coated so you have the potential to have higher cylinder temps without killing anything. The turbo can have a front housing and impellor off a supra or 1hd-ft, both are bigger than the 1hdt. More air from the turbo should ...

I went with the diesel gas tech kit and so far so good. A big difference in power. Not sure on economy as I towed a trailer on my last trip. Kit seems well built,good quality deutsch water proof plugs, strong mounting brackets etc.

So on this note. If rebuilding a 1hdt, is it possible to up the compression to around what the 1hz is? I have noticed the lack of low down torque. I own a 1hdt 80 and a midi with the 14b with is 3.7 litre. I reckon the 14b has more torque than the 1hdt. If I turboed the 14b (which I am going to) I ...

1hdt is direct injection. 1hz has pre combustion chambers. Factory turbo motors have stronger pistons, 2 stage injectors, bigger fuel lines and pump and a boost compensator.

Hoping to sort this in the next day or so. Apart from bolting up the pump first, any other tips on getting the timing cover properly alligned? CHunks, yeah it was scary, not much time to think of options. Have all bolts started before you tighten any. You also need the tool to set the pump stroke ...

I run 1 of the engine watchdog gauges for engine temp. It bolts on to what ever you want so doesn't need to be in the coolant. The alarm helps cos you can't be checking gauges in the heat of battle. Mine is bolted onto the cyl head as I figure thats usually the 1st casualty from overheating and I ...

Are you sure all the electrics are 24volt? I thought it was just the starting circuit.

I think you'll find they say the barrier doesn't suit the sahara due to the rear air con ducting. I need a barrier in mine and emailed milford but had no reply. They have that strapping type barrier but its not want I want. May have to do a custom job for saharas

I have a 1hdt and found the best result was doing the pump adjustments as per the lcool tech section. It makes the car accelerate much smoother and becomes much more responsive for normal driving. Do that 1st,fit your pyro/boost gauges and then if still unhappy play with the fuel screw. I have a ...

Some vehicles have an accessory box already fitted. Most Toyotas for example have a power box including fuses. 1 is constant power, 2 accessories and the 3rd ignition. Makes a good pick up point to trigger a solenoid. Here's a pic of my setup. Cole hersee solenoid and a cooper busman box with 5 ...

You're not flogging the shitebox are ya?

I would if I was you. The bearings have a history of delaminating around 100k and don't give any signs until just before they fail. Some cases have had about 60km from the 1st sign of change in oil pressure/tapping sound to a complete failure. Check the lcool website if you want photos or more info ...

I had the same problem. Refitted and soldered the plug cured it. May pay to give it a try as mine looked OK but was the problem.

I think the change in 98 also had some cyl head upgrades to improve low down torque as the 100 series was heavier than 80's. Some pollution gear like egr turned up somewhere along the line as well.

I haven't done this for ages but the following info is the best I can recall.If you have access to the factory service manual you'll find the sst is basically 2 pieces.One is a shaft that goes through the ball end where the king pin bearings go and the other fits inside where the axle goes and it ...

Would it be possible/feasible to do this.......... put a 12 volt solenoid valve between the actuator and turbo. run an adjustable boost/pressure switch between turbo and inlet manifold. Set the pressure switch up to the desired boost you want, so that when you reach it, it activates and sends ...

I fitted a boost controller to mine and it tops out at 13psi.I have read that the ct26 is not efficient and makes too much heat above 14psi.Should I be changing compressor wheels if I want to go higher?

Is it possible/feasible to build the box to ip66 or 67 standards in case someone wants to mount it in the engine bay? In my case i have multiple ip66 rated circuit breaker/relay boxes in the engine bay and would want the controller box to be close by.

Is it possible to wrap some heat resistant insulation around the pipe.Something like this stuff : http://secondskinaudio.com/products/vibration-mat-damplifier-lite.php#tab3 Its a noise and thermal barrier.It comes in small sheets and is super sticky but takes a few seconds to bond,allowing you time ...

Yep,see what you mean. We're just down the road.

Theres no turning back now. He's commited to it so might as well go the whole hog. If not I'll have to be the test mule. Might be a little complicated with about 4000km between my car and you guys.Maybe time to start a new thread for 1h*** and see how much interest is out there. My hands up already!

Matt, mine is 1HDFT not the 'e' version ;) and according to the EPC that manifold gasket 17115-17010 suits 1hz, 1hdt and 1hdft engines. http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/p_G_1998_TOYOTA_LAND+CRUISER_HDJ80L-GCMEX_1701.html, however i was just digging around looking for the intake heater bits, and the ...

So now time for the Toyota ones hey! 1HDT please. Any more info on outlet temps now that the ambient air is a bit warmer than the winter temps when you 1st tested?

You should change the master cyl. I think drums hold residual line pressure but discs don't.Could be the other way round-too long ago I played with modifying.Either way the m/cyl is different.

The water molecules take time to absorb the heat so they need to be in the intercooler long enough to do that. If they flow quickly through the intercooler and the radiator they don't have enough time to absorb or get rid of the heat.There are optimal flow rates that can only be determined by ...

Just add that I fitted circuit breakers instead of fuses so no hassles out bush if something goes wrong.
