Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Rayco sell a lot in the marine market, you buy the 30micron kit then change the filter to a 10 micron to filter out water, Rayco sell the 10micron filters but not in the initial water separator kit for some reason.

Good luck with the serve test :twisted: i wouldn't do it in some standard 4x4!!!! The suzuki section used to have a link to a video of the actual test, pretty easy actually as your not braking as you server, brake and swerve simultaneously a different story, a think it was Top Gear or some other ...

There are certainly a few minor flat spots in the motor below 3000rpm, shifting down a gear at 3000rpm up a steep hill usually doesn't end up good. Unless you have some red dash lights I would tend to suspect the fuel filter, as well mines certainly not keen on the local shell e10.

In my older Vit that plugs for the fog lights in the rear bumper.

My guess is the NCOP will come in and you'll be allowed you bodylift, springs and 28 inch tyres. The new rules are a pain however it's pretty obvious once two inch bigger tyres are legal no one would get engineered just run bigger tryes and wing it with the suspension lift, I can see the RTA ...

Silver soldering might be the best way to go,someone who does balustrading supplies should be able to supply the solder and flux.

Google Seafoam or Subaru Upper Engine Cleaner for more info as well. Haven't used either but people report similar results. Bit of chat around the CEM products in general tech at the moment too. Any boat dealer who does engine service should be able to sell you similar product, OMC is the one I use.

It's been coming in next month for the last three years WA are working to it, NSW think it's too strict, QLD not strict enougth, who knows really.

Last time I went thouigh this BS my engineer said there would be a transition period, best to ask your engineer and the RTA where you stand, I'm sure people will for or against this point of view so again ask your engineer and the RTA these are the only people who matter in the end. Personally I ...

Answer yes to has the tyre diamater been increased more than 50mm then it cannot be approved under LS8, this is clearly stated at the end of the document. Maybe there are other standard you can engineer to who knows?

"Black seems to be the dfault for everything - is it a tougher material? " Same material unless you doing silver, the problem with white is it shows if the paint is too thin or it can burn and look brown if you bake it too long, good old black always looks good even if you do a crappy job ...

I went though the same exercise a month back with my 2L V6 Vitara, the trottle body,air flow sensor and fuel flow sensor are all combined in one very expensive part. I ended up buying a second hand part for approx a third of the new price.

It’s expensive but you can buy 2K urethane aerosols overseas, you press a button to mix the two components then it functions as a normal spray, I doubt it’s available here but you never know.

Anyone know if you can buy 2pac rattle cans in Oz ? no double it would be expensive but I only need to spray some clear coat.

I’ve always heard good things about Derek’s products, he post regularly on the Exploroz forum and I’m sure he would answer any questions if you post there. Personally I’ve had mixed luck with battery monitors, a rather expensive monitor from the US was a complete failure, their not always accurate if ...

Send the sd card back to Next Destination and they will copy the maps back for free.

Tell me about it, the V6 actually drops in power output between about 2700 and 3000 revs ,change up earlier rather than latter I guess. I doubt there is a performance chip available that will work with dyno tuning or zuki would fit it at the factory.

CJ is pretty lucky with his petrol consumptioon my V6 has been thirst even before I fiitted bigger tyres, East Coast Bullbars used to do the front bullbar if still available

I've recently replaced my Rancho shocks with OME and the Vit rides a lot less bumpy, no way would I ever put Ranchos back, commodore might be the go.

Yeah your right I should have typed Zincseal rather zincalume,always get those two mixed up.Zincseal goes up to 1.9 while zincalume maxs out about 1.1

Three mil alloy would be very expensive ,almost as dear as proper marine ply.
Zincalume or zinc plate a good idea you can stick it in with Sikaflex and a few pop rivits if you worried about welding.

I'm running the Whiteline bolts,$30 for the wheel alignment and no issues so far.Option two sound good provided it's done correctly.

Sorry to hijack the thread but is there anyway in NSW 35's and extended shackles can be engineered in NSW? If so does anyone have a contact? PM me if you dont want to make details public. As others have said John from Consulmotive is a sticker for detail but if it can be legally done he has no ...

My rears are about a cm too short at full droop but it's more likely your shocks going to be too short rather than the coils bind. I added a spacer cut from solid bar,the threads the same as the body mounts (I think)10mm fine (maybe),the treads on the stock bump are only short so you need the ...

I'm not sure about the meridian but I fixed my Magellan 315 with some toothpaste for polish,I wouldn.t try this if the screen has a anti glare coating .

Normal cheap powdercoating no better than spray paint in my opinion,we have a line where I work but I just hit my wheels with rattle cans.Powder coat or spray point vs rock gives the same result every time.

Has anyone got a full toughdog lift kit for their vit?
How does it perform?

ARB at Moorebank have one.

Yep that will work however there have been accidents when the can of spray has ignited so care needs to be taken with regards to any source of sparks or hot metal around the place.

I doubt you would find any difference between DA Tracks and DA Topo except the grid lines, it's very detailed in NSW no complaints here. Its supposed to show National Parks and State Forests but is pretty difficult to see on the GPS screen but comes up OK on your PC

The droops pretty much limited by swaybar even if you add longer shocks so I don't really know the point of this stupid rule.The one third increase in height can also be tricky but you can forget the rubber bumpstop and just measure metal to metal. You might also have trouble at the back the shock ...
