Outer Limits 4x4 Board

well i suppose if toyota wanted to build a engine for the outback that can provide farmers with power and ultra reliability they could run forged internals, chromoly rings, 4 bolt mains etc etc Ever had one apart? 1HZ, 1HD series engines already have a full crank cradle for the main caps (lower ...

well i suppose if toyota wanted to build a engine for the outback that can provide farmers with power and ultra reliability they could run forged internals, chromoly rings, 4 bolt mains etc etc but unless you have a 1HZ engine and 1HD-FTE block side by side and pull them down and check everything ...

The engine its replacing is the 4.5L toyota petrol engine (6cyl i believe) which is mounted to a 5spd manual gearbox. Its a 1997 model off the top of my head. We will be doing most of the work ourselves. Both the fuel tanks be replaced with long ranger diesel tanks and hoses replaced with 3/8" fuel ...

Gday everyone, I was just wondering if anyone knows if the wiring loom for the engine of the single turbo and twin turbo cruiser engines are the same minus the loom to the second turbo? Also how hard/difficult would it be to fit the manifold and second turbo to it?

Cheers,
Josh

Run the walbro intank pump, most tanks are baffled unless your running standard cruiser tanks lol but if your going to run a surge tank you could just make it a twin turbo 5L and make use of the bosch 044 pump and surge tank

Gday everyone, Im just wondering if anyone has done a conversion from petrol 80series to a 1HD-FT engine before? As my mate wants to ditch his petrol and go diesel power. We will be doing the work in the backyard and ive found where i can get the engine but not sure if everything will mount up e.g ...

Manta make snorkel heads to mate, they also do throttle response modules, power modules, 3 stage air filters and 3" exhausts. Email them and they usually do package deals and knock a far bit off the price for ya

gday everyone, i just picked myself up a 08 cruiser ute with 2" suspension lift and 1" body lift. Just looking at tyres now. Its got 285/75R16 goodyear wranglers MT's on it atm and just wondering what size and brand people recommend. Im up in the NT bout 370km south of darwin and its coming into the ...

ok cool as, how much power increase u reckon i can get with those things?

Gday all, Just wondering what i can do to my 1HD-FT to make it have a bit more go to it

what sorta driving is that mate? im usually out on the open road

Gday all, was looking at spotlights and everyone raves on about lightforce and how good they are, but i noticed that the hella lights are bloody expensive and wondering are they worth the price or not? so what do you guys recommend? Hella, Narva, IPF, Lightforce or Generic Brand Talking non HID ...

im trying to go down a different path instead of being a hoon thus why im goin a 4x4, what u mean start shit? also will 2 inches lift be enough for the 35" wheels?

Because the way in which holden V8 petrols work is a lot different to a Turbo Landcruiser Diesel V8, the torque curve is different and the gearing etc etc, handling of the vehicle and the design of the vehicle for me changes my mind set of how i drive, if i got a sports ute i drive it hard, i ...

What after 6 points, 1 count of dangerous driving and court appearance. Yeah i defs think so that why im selling it and im goin to NT/Nth QLD

NV4500 5spd matched with atlas transfer case. NV4500 is same 5spd they run in the dodge ram 3500 and its cuppled to the 6bt engine

Recommend looking on Pickles.com at written off SS utes etc and gettin a whole car, that way u get engine, all the looms, ECU, PCM's etc. Gearbox and all that other stuff and then can sell the left over parts. Marks 4x4 adapters have kits for it. One of my instructors said the LS1 stock heads didnt ...

Gday, Just going through the process of selling my SS ute and leasing a VDJ79R Landcruiser, wanting to put some 35" wheels on it but dont know how high of lift i need? Also i heard that the track is uneven front to rear....is there spacers etc i could get to fix this problem?

they have been fitted b4 but.... The 4bt is more realistic to fit they are really big engines even so the 4bt puts out about 95 kw revs out to a staggering 2500 rpm probably about 14ltrs per 100 the 6bt about 135kw also revs out to a staggering 2500 rpm probably about 15 or 16 ltrs per 100 1hz (non ...

thrashlux if i go down this rout would u be able to provide a wireing diagram (for a fee) i just like to try stuff myself then ask someone else for help when i balls it up... cheers the question is and this is what i say to people contemplating this is have you done many looms b4 because this is ...

what im looking at doing is buying the complete car that has been written off in someway that the engine is still fine, then finding out what i need and pull that out and drop it into the 79 series. u said i would need the 100 series gearbox and t/case.....wont the 79 series (h150) handle it?

well might just send u my loom and u send me one of those looms pictured above and then ill wire it all up lol also some of the 79 series come with 1HD-FT, can u put the electronic pump on them?

Are u sure u can get 30 spline for 80 series? I have the super set in my 80 and they are 27 spline, and was told by longfield that they only do 27 spline for 80's, even in the super set, they said that the 30 spline was for 60's and luxs. http://www.longfieldsuperaxles.com/categories/30-Spline ...

ok np mate, he quoted 11k for a 1HD-FTE and yeah im like wateva mate. but thrashlux expect a lot of PM's when i start doing this lol or is it as simple as pulling the engine, ecu and other computers and wiring harness's out and dropping them in the 79 series?

to start with the postage is steep, but as u add more items it doesnt change to much as long as you dont get something rediculous like body armor. but if you were going lockers the price wouldnt change much from 1 locker to 2 as i bought over some stuff for my LS1 and it cost $198 in postage

ok cool, well ill probably go with the cheaper of the 2 cause they both seem like chunky tyres. How well do the coopers handle mud?

The driving i will be doing once its all going will be either up in the NT or Nth QLD depending where i get posted, it will be pretty much whateve i can find. river crossing, sand, hard dry stuff, rocky hills etc etc. also do a bit of touring and go up to the cape and stuff like that

i looked last night and found ARB Air Lockers in US for $799 with 30 spline for landcruiser and spoke with longfields and there 30 spline "super set" is around USD$1000 to your door. So that seems like the way to go

ok well guess totally scratch the 37's as it seems like hard work to have them on there.
Ive narrowed down to a choice of 3 tyres:
Cooper STT Armor-TEK 3 in 35's
Micky Thompson MTZ in 35's
Super Swampers IROK 36's

any recommendations on these 3?
