You need at least a 2.5" dump pipe off the back of the turbo for a start preferably a 3", then either 2.5" system or go up to 3".
Your pumping in so much more air the exhaust gases have to come out somewhere.

Turning the end of the snorkel backwards also seems to work to fix this sometimes, no forced induction to create air pressure.

This is the procedure I have used for years and it has never failed unless there is another problem. 1/ Make sure there is plenty of fuel in tank to pick up. 2/ Take the filter off and make sure it is not blocked up and that it is full of fuel before replacing it. (contrary to belief you can get an ...

the top front hoop would be in your line of vision and therefore it would have to come off. Also the eyebolts are past the furthermost front part of the "new Bumberbar" and would also need removing to make it legal.

And now, maybe for part 2. As I was passing a fixed flash for cash in NSW, on the Pacific Highway, the thing flashed, twice. It was a 50k zone, and the max I would have been doing was 51 or 52, certainly not 60 or 70. When I saw the flash out of the corner of my eye, I looked down and saw 52k on ...

The fact that you are a visitor somewhere means diddly squat. You can be fined for offences that you commit. i would totally agree . but it still dosen't answer the question :? ok then . are you commiting an offence if you operate a motor vehicle in qld that is modified / engineered and acceped by ...

Lockrite will slip before it breaks on that sort of jig

Q1 :Yes and
Q2: yes

Electric motor to engage transfer gears.
Electric over vacuum to engage the ADD system.

Surfs have fixed front hubs not FWH or Auto hubs.

If the electric 4wd control box is missing your not gunna get 4wd.

Matching up a hole load of sensors from a 5LE to a 2LT-E ECU may be a daunting task and just one out may trigger it to limp mode. Could probably be done by someone with a bit of electrical know how. but that's going to cost $$. Then again may be lucky and it swaps straight in give the right signals ...

Slightly off topic, anyone know where to get the compressor kits form to convert an esky? I have a 100lt esky that I wouldnt mind converting to a fridge. Try Waeco, Marine section http://www.waeco.com.au/products3.asp?catId=74&subCatId=75&subCatId2=114 or there seconds site, http://www.getawaeco ...

Installed and all is ok, the difference is I think it may alter the frequency range or tone or something like that as now the bass, (if a 4" speaker can call it that) is not as deep and the trebble is a bit higher. Not all that bad as before the tone of it was a bit to low, know it is able to be ...

Thanks for that, the old 8 ohm speakers are out of an Excavator, checked the voltage of the unit (radio only type ) and is 12v not 24v.
Old speakers are 20w max audio and 8w normal audible, the outer cushion has gone hard in one area and the speakers crackles that bad you just can't listen to it.

What would happen if I put 4 ohm independence speakers in instead of original 8ohm ones.

They are all cast in china and then sent to Australia to be hardened and chromed. 51% of the entire manufacturing processs is done in Australia so they claim Australian made. :bad-words: Has been like that ever since they changed their name from Siddons tool Co to Sidchrome. What happened was that ...

It will be either the pitman or the idler arm is bent, unless you know what it looks like when it is in good condition it will be hard to pick unless it is hitting the chassis as suggested.
I'm betting idler arm.

one the button is pressed in for 4wd the light doesnt come on straight away takes a min or so sometimes and other times the light flashes and a warning beep keeps going off does anyone know whats wrong with it or is this normal??? Could be a vacuum hose in the add system is leaking, or the electric ...

Depends on trye size and what you want out of it, purpose for fitting the V8, more speed /more grunt

Mate of mine is going through this at present with an old EJ holden he bought in QLD, Lives in Wadonga , EJ registered with mods in NSW. He needed to have it inspected for transfer to Vic rego and they have told him it needs to be re-engineered in Vic due to the mods done to it even though it is ...

Told you it would sound better outside

Does this motor have a boost sensor and vacuum lines to control wastgate ect . If so check them out. Boost compensator ????

whats the main difference between bars for ifs and solid? is it just the mounts? or the entire shape? It also depends on make and model of bar and what year it is for and what model vehicle it is one. It is mainly the mounting that is different but things like SR5 (Wide body/standard flare) can ...

When I done my one a bit of thought went into it and a few recomendations were made by mechanics not exhaust shop people. On a 3.0L TD it was recomended that a 2 3/4" system from a 3" dump pipe back wold be best as the 2 1/2" would still be that little bit small. The only problem with 2 3/4" is that ...

Go for a 3" dump pipe off the turbo then a 3" mandrel bent system back with a small free flow muffler to keep it legal in the noise department.
Steal or Stainless is your choice as this will effect price.

I am no Cruiser expert but a 4" suspension lift will require enginering. Maybe not in Vic don't know, 2+2 won't. 4" lift will give better flex as well. 4" suspension is the way I would go but the price difference compared to a 2+2 might scare you a bit after you add up all the extra bits you will ...

Not many keep them in stock and have tomorder in, but try Spot On down near Bunnings @ C/Town. If your early enough he might be able to get them in for Sat arvo fitment.

Have you tried Dazzlers at Minto never had a problem there, the only thing the old guy didn't like was if I got lazy and put it through the auto wash as that is where they had problems with mud. But yeh 10pm is good during the summer it actually keeps you cool as well while cleaning it and you can ...

Will be very hard to find, the only people I know that "may" have somthing close to what you want are , RoySharif on the sutf site and possibly V6hilux on here. but doubtful + they would probably be in Japanese

Eveything I say here is for a 96 model if it is eailier disreguard the stuff below. 96 model is a KZN 185 and a 3.0 liter not a 2.4. It will have Coils all round and no torsion bar suspension. If it is a 96 it will have 4.1 ratio diff as standard. The 3.0L will run 33's with the 4.1 but 4.3's would ...
