2.4td surf Q's

Post by redhotzook »

ive spent too long over in the suzuki area, so i bout a toyota surf 2.4 turbo diesl.

great car, bit gutless, needs some bar work asap!!

what is the best way to make the surf move along a bit faster? engine was just rebuilt, injector pump reco'd, new injectors etc.
are there bigger turbo options that actually make a difference? superchargers? exhaust or anything little that makes a big difference?

im also chasing some ideas for my bullbar, sidestep, and rear bullbar builds.
if anyone has links or pics, please show me. alssooo, pics of the front bashplate, i need to make up a new one of them too.

and just any general info i should know about the 2.4 turbo diesls.
cheers

Take too long to write it all up & add pics etc. (plus I'm too lazy), so have a read on the Surf Site when you get some time ... http://www.toyotasurf.asn.au/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Rear bar was built by Brooksy (several years ago now) and tail gate is factory issue for those with the factory rear tyre carrier. The centre panel (ABS plastic) I did have it filled in the centre/right as it has the bolt on catch for the factory rear tyre carrier there.
