Outer Limits 4x4 Board

iv got a set of 305/70/16 bighorns on my 100 series, i do most of my work on road, they are great on road, nice and quiet, and grip well, in wet and dry conditions.
in the mud they work very well, and clear out good.

as for wear i cant really comment, iv done 10,000 on them and they still look new ...

turbo 400.

get it built, full manual, good clutch packs and bands. it will be bulit proof.
iv got one behind a 1000hp big block and it loves life.

dont do burnouts in reverse, it will kill it straight away!

thats a pissa!!!

last fill up, i tryed 2 stroke in the tank. 1L of oil to 80 L of diesel.

iv done 500km, its made 0.000000% difference. engine sounds the same, doesnt go any better, still using the same amount of fuel.

only difference is that it cost me $20 more for the bottle of oil to fill up.

sounds like u ...

WHAT ABOUT METHANOL??

Well how about you get some, and mix it with diesel, and let us know how it turns out.

I didnt want people to add metho to the diesel in their tanks, and have it separate, and thus damage their injector pumps and injectors.

yeah ok, ill do that. iv got 150 L of ...

ONLY DOWN SIDE WOULD BE WAITING THE 5-10 SECONDS FOR IT TO WARM UP BEFORE YOU REVERSE.

OTHER THAN THAT IT WOULD BE GREAT!

IS IT POSIBLE TO MAKE AN AIRBOX USING A PANEL FILTER TO FIT YOU APPLICATION?

if you can get someone to show ya, an arc welder is the way, they are cheap, and if you can weld good there weld beads look better than a mig bead!

they are tricky to learn, but once you master an arc, learning a mig is a piece of piss!!

WHAT ABOUT METHANOL??

im keen to try the acetone, it makes more sence than the 2 stroke as a preformance gain, the mix for 80L is 120mls. im keen to see if it makes any difference, but at the moment im a non-beliver!

my 1hz has had a turbo on it for 100,000 now and still going VERY strong. so im not sure where this 50,000 stuff comes from.

its running a dts kit with 15 psi, i do around 1000k`s per week.

Finally someone not dreaming!

1hz can put out 150% for yonks as long as the cooling system and EGTs are ...

ohh k, thats great, mine sits on 2500 at 100 with the 33s.

it still makes good power at 2300, so towing should still be good.

thanks for the info.

iv got a 105 series diesel manual with a dts turbo kit, 3 inch exhaust and running 15psi.

it has 33 inch coopers on it and lookin to upgrade to the new bfg muds but in a 35 inch.

wanted to know what the rpm will be at 100 in 5th gear.

thanks, Adam

haha, nice one!

when i clean the methanol out of my carbys i soak them in clean premium unleaded.

then i get some cheapo carby cleaner and give it a spary, then rinse it in the premo again, then everything gets a soaking in wd 40 to keep it all lubed up!

the petrol will get all the oil, grese and crap off, but ...

on road they are good, in the dry they hold the road well, they struggle with gripping the road when its wet, espesially when trying to stop.

off road they are great in the dry stuff, as soon as its wet and/or sticky, they clag up and wont clear.

i think for what they are they are fairly noisy ...

ours done that same mate, look at getting new leads. if they are a few years old they would have possibly perished by now and let water in.

i have the ome set up in mine, it rides great and with the long range tank filled it still sits nice, i towed a trailer full of bricks and concrete the other day, it still handeled pretty much the same!

as i said before, the only thing letting it down for me it the ground clearence, i think because ...

DO NOT PUT ANY BREATHER INTO AN ENGINE INTAKE AIRBOX!!!!

The vacuum WILL create a low pressure in the diffs/gearbox/transfer and when going through water, they will suck water in past the seals.

99% of all externally facing seals only seal one way....

ahh yeah thats a fair point. looks like ill ...

only if the diff oil made it up the line into the airbox... pretty unlikely given the expansion/contraction likely in a diff housing. Also, having it in the airbox where theres a snorkel etc attached would mean positive pressure in the airbox pushing down the diff's airline.

to gain possitive ...

yeah i know the wait isnt that long, but im impatent! lol.

i was looking/ thinking of a nice easy/ neat way to do diff brethers. this way looks nice, but i hate waiting for things to be ordered in!

could i connet a line from the top of the dif then the other end into the air box? this way it would be filtered air and it will be as dry as what the engine ...

What are the iron man snatch straps like? im thinkin of getting some.

my 105 has a 2 inch lift, its still way too low, gets the tow bar dragin on everything, as well as the front bar. iv already bent the side step. it was my first go at a local track thats really not hard at all.

iv had it a week (i bought the car with the lift alreay in it) and im already looking at ...

i just got a 1hz. it has a dts turbo running 15psi. it hauls, lots of low down grunt. keeps up with our 80 series 1fz with ease.

toyota should have made a 100 series ute.

cheers mate! sounds like im almost in the right track then! bit of a difference tuning a diesel to a twin carby big block!

hey guys looks like ill be buying a 93 80 series with factory turbo diesel.

it goes great on the raod but ill be looking to get extra performance for towing and just general driving.

ill be fitting a front mount cooler as well as a 3 inch exhaust inc. dump pipe.

iv had a read on tuning these ...

thanks heaps for the replys guys! i think ill be looking ot for a fatrory turbo and goin from there, last thing i need is a engine fail towing up the hume highway!!
