I'm guessing by the lack of dyno results posted up, it wasnt even close to the 700hp as stated in the title.......

Loving the build so far! Great pics! I cant wait to see some vids of it.

Just make sure when its getting tuned that the safari snorkel is not restricting your horsepower. I have no idea what CFM they flow, but they dont look like they would support 700hp.

keep up the good work!

cheers

You need a boost gauge and a Pyro. Then you can start giving it more fuel. Then you will notice a big difference in power.

its mig wire... i would pull it out with some long nose pliers, job done.

I have to use the coke bottle every time on my hilux as the turbo coolant lines sit higher than the radiator cap, its the only way to get all the air out. Dont fill the bottle too high initially as the coolant will rise when it gets hot. I'm thinking about emailling coke to get them to re-enforce ...

Is the radiator cap the highest part of your cooling system? Did you remember to turn the heater on whilst bleeding the system? Have you tried the old coke bottle trick in to raise the height of the coolant whilst your bleeding the system? http://i1076.photobucket.com/albums/w443/thermospark ...

25 x-flows had decent compression but can't remember what. Problem is a steel block rather than alloy.they don't handle boost well. Most people I know who have them have gone a turbo running max 8 pound boost. WTF?? Problem is a steel block?? The problem is not the steel block, its whats inside of ...

100% Turbocharger, a correctly sized and setup turbo will give you a bucketload of low down torque as well as mid/top end performance. On your engine, it is so easy to pick the turbo size, Ford has already done all the research for you. You need an XR6 turbocharger. I'm pretty sure they have a ...

if your sitting on perfectly flat ground and put the car in first gear, with your clutch pedal fully depressed, will the car slowly creep forward?

This will help confirm if it is definitely the clutch NOT disengaging that is your problem.

my 98 DX 4.2L has had a turbo kit fitted for 10 years running 12psi boost. I've now pushed it up to 17psi.... no dramas yet *touch wood*

I have had many different clutches from NPC. Multiple Race clutches in my Evo and custom clutch in my 4 runner and hilux. Both are brilliant, i would trust Doug, he is a champion

Yes the solid axle models interchange front to rear... LSD up front does help a little bit, but its nothing like having a locker.

yeh, i nearly fell over when they told me that price. I will fit them myself, i was just curious how much they would charge to supply and fit.

I was quoted $3700 supplied and fitted for twin ARB lockers from UV 4x4.

2LT's are the worst motor ever made by Toyota. Seriously, dont do it! It will crack a head if you sneeze near it. Ring a Desiel mechanic and ask them what they think of 2LT's.

I had the same problem when i fitted my 2" spring lift. I fixed it by fitting a flat U bolt and buying an adjustable dropped drag link.

I've done the 1G conversion, it was easy. The soarer bellhousing bolted to the hilux gearbox, then it all bolts together. i made my own set of custom engine mounts, i dont think you can get any that will bolt up???

Have a look at my "members ride" thread, its all step by step in there.

I mounted my ECU inside the dash above the glovebox. I can easily access it for tuning and its out of harms way.

QLD Desiel spares are the best place to go for rubber bends and quality hose clamps to suit. They will also be able to sell you a length of 3" or 4" tube you need.

I love my auto locker in my hilux. I broke my first CV on the weekend, but i think it was becuase i was climbing rocks and i was hard on the throttle all day.

your engineer must think your dodgy or is to lazy to follow all the maths in the books what engineer? I just got it mod plated, i dont need an engineer. What maths are you talking about. i rang qld transport before i did the conversion and they said it was fine, all they wanted to know was the ...
