Re: Water to air intercoolers
Hey sorry guys, it has been on the back burner. I have been flat out trying to meet other impossible deadlines. The kits for the 80series are great, lots of room. But the 75series I have run into dramas with mounting the heat exchanger, there just aint much room. I am guessing that a lot of you guys ...

Hi guys, sorry to the late reply to those of you who have contacted me. I have been totally swamped with work at the moment. I am hoping to spend some time over the xmas break getting these intercoolers happening. The set up is working great under all conditions we have been able to throw at it, now ...

Re: Water to air intercoolers
We have wound the boost up to 15psi for more testing and it is going great. EGT's are still in the low 400's I just need to get it on the dyno to confirm % power gain, but the 'ol seat of the pants' tells us this cooler has made a huge difference! More hours in the day would be great, a constant ...

Re: Hilux 3RZ Engine Conversion
Mine did the same thing, i used a wiring diagram i got of here somewhere. Turns out that the blue and red wire to power the air flow meter had to be in a different pin out position to the diagram i was using. with a test light check that there is actually power at the air flow meter.

3rz valve shims
I am doing the head gasket on my 3rz and checked the clearances today before removing the head to find all of the exhaust valves are between 0.001 and 0.004in ...way too tight
Just wondering if any of you guys have bought the replacement shims, can I only get them from toyota and how much are they?

Just a tip for removing the manifold (before breaking any studs) The way I always do them, 1st wire brush all the exposed threads clean, spray with inox. If you haven't got a rattle gun, with a breaker bar and rubber mallet crack each stud just about 10 deg, don't take them out all the way out one ...

Re: Water to air intercoolers
On the 75 series room is very tight so a fan may have to go on the front of the exchanger with some grill mods. On the 80 series is no probs.
We are still waiting on the pumps to show up from USA.

Re: Water to air intercoolers
Looks good, is topping up the oil hard? The test I have done for the core I have used showed great results. These little cores will actually flow and keep cool about 500hp worth of air flow. And no lag But yeah will definitely do a bigger one for high boost set ups like yours. How much power are you ...

Re: Water to air intercoolers
Thanks mate.
Yeah I can do a bigger one for you guys running 20psi and up
Might do inlet and exhaust manifolds too if there are a few of you guys chasing more power.

Most exhaust shops won't press bend anything over 2.5inch so if you want to go 3inch you usually have to go mandrel.
