Thanks for the reply mate. The lights aren't hooked up to the headlights in anyway and that's how I want it (provided it works!) because I just want to be able to turn them on when the car is on and when the switch is on. I guess I'll have a mess around with the earthed wires, see if anything I do ...

Well today I had some free time so I went to jaycar, bought 2 relays, a bunch of wire, a fuse and holder, and some heatshrink. I wired my 4 spotties up, connected everything to the correct terminals, flicked the switch, and .... nothing. Checked the fuses, all fine. Double checked connections, seem ...

noob light wiring question

Just bought 4 cheapy spot lights for the top of my roll bar. They each have a ground wire which is attached to the base (metal) so they are already earthed. So if I wanted to run the 4 wires down into the engine bay somewhere, and for them all to run off the one switch inside the cab, what do I need ...

The thing is, if I go with the 7mge or even the 5mge things are just gonna keep breaking, and I seriosuly doubt the G52 gear box would last very long. More money down the track.

Thanks for that mate, I assumed something similar because I just couldnt find any info about the swap, so I figured it wouldn't be a very good one to do. I just thought I'd try my luck cos I could get the motor on the cheap. I might have to think about something more fesible, v6 commodore perhaps or ...

3F into Hilux?

So my mate has just put a 308 in his cruiser and he's got the 3F lying around. What are the chances of getting this motor into my 4Y hilux? Main interests are: - cost - time - much to know All that sorta shit, basically just wondering if it would fit. Also I've tried searching for a while on here ...

I thought in comp roll bars the brace bars weren't allowed to have any bends in them..... On giantracing's, the brace bars seem to bend where they meet the bar and the tray.

Has anyone else actually done the 7mge swap and can tell me a closer cost estimate? Thanks.

I've got a 4Y too and need some more power.

Also, how much work is involved in something like this. I wouldn't be able to do it myself, and if I'm lucky I can get a mates old man to give me a hand. Cheers.

I've got a 4Y in the old 85 lux. It's a gutless piece of shit, so what engines are compatable with the least amount of money being spent on mounting and stuff like that?
