HighLUX

I eagerly await this update, OS lacks hilux

Sweet luxo barge Cold war era nuke in the boot?

I agree with the jeep comment they can sure boogie for a big truck

Rotate the intake so its facing towards the strut tower and fit intercooler on the passengers side of engine?

Keen to see how you figure w2a intercooler setup. I may be owning something 2.4t soon and was keen to do the same thing

Yeah he drives that V8 rover thing I think so hes on the OS team anyway maybe bribe him with stickers

Kawerau motorS The guy is old I dont think he will notice/can actually see

Ktown motors opposite the Gull Can you get rid of that steel cup bit or is it part of the bumpstop? Small rectangle bumpstop 2nd from the right is a 90's townace being compared to STD hilux ones looks pretty small compared to the one in your pic

Got pics of bump stops? Pickapart could be an option to retrofit something random in there. Got a Wof on the hilux last week from a certain local garage and its on the bumpstops....

Yeah Tauranga seems to be rather void of OS members considering the size of the place

Monday or Tuesday

How urgent does I need to be? Heading to TGA next week so could check it out if no1 really local is keen

So in the process of splitting my 3pc rims I managed to strip one of the allen heads completely and its still stuck in the rim whats the best way to get it out? I was going to try crack it with vice grips. Theres also a couple of bolts that I wouldn't be happy reusing, so Im looking to find 4 or 5 replacement bolts but not sure where to find them since they have that extra piece below the bolt head that sits in the wheel center.

Try modifying the original ones or take them out, go for a look around the local pickapart and you might have some luck matching them with something smaller from XYZ car that will bolt back into your GX71 but still look factory

Nothing yet just procrastinating about an engine conversion for the hilux. Crazy hoarder uncle next to the olds place has a RB30 manual VL he wants $400 for....

Maybe its skipped a tooth on the injector pump due to old cambelt?

The loom has seen better days and is missing the injector plugs but could be hoki'd to run/catch fire easily enough. ECU/throttle body are from 1jz with TRC

I have a JZ loom ecu and throttle body bit your welcome to have

Ahh so you won that villiars, I had my eye on that!

Toyota F series diff is what you want. Shorten a Estima diff or find a 4wd townace/liteace rear diff, the latter is only 30ish mm wider that the original dx diff but a weirdo 4wd 5 stud pattern

You crazy dragon man you!

Do any Rb engines come out with a mid or rear sump? Looking at a RB30 from a VL but its front sump and would need a rear sump to clear x member

Sounds like Iv got to book it in for you to play with now

Hmmm sounds like it could be the problem as it does funny things like rev but very slowly like its not getting enough fuel then just comes right. Was guessing airflow related as it eats alot of dust everyday, can you pull codes like toyota stz? or is it OBD2 blackmagic

Work ute is 07 rodeo VCDI turbo diesel thing, what would cause it to randomly cut out and then go into a limp mode and the engine light appear when you restart it? At a guess its got something to do with the air intake sensor thingy because if I unplug it then plug it back in I will be fine again for a bit. It used to do it once every couple days but now you cant go 20mins without it doing it which is not good when it cuts out infront of 1800t of logs being pushed my way.
