I also like the 100series V8 Landcruisers, if any one has driven an auto 5speed they are very nice and rather quick.  :D

The 100 Series are pieces of crap! The front diffs blow up in them all the time as soon as you ask it to do any serious 4wd work. The guys from Toyoto also recognise this fault. I was one that liked the cruisers but I not so sure now. Just my 2c's worth.

I'm aware of the front diff issue in the 100series landcruisers.. As you said.. Serious 4wd... and generally only when snapping second.

For a general street driven 4wd with a bit of sand work towing a boat its perfect.

Tonnes of torque, smooth, refined, lots of seats, NO BARN DOORS, huge towing capacity.

Sure the Nissan's do have the drivetrain BUT they don't have the refined feel.

I place a bet that it will eventually come out with a BOSS V8. :)

Also I agree, even the engine bay of a VL looks more interesting then that.

Props to the RB30. :P

This is why they are going turbo; the boss won't fit, without extensive mods, so turbo is here to stay

    • If you are Ecutek tuned then these TCU tunes are anywhere from $550 to $700 usd. If you are not ECUTEK tuned, then it gets costly!    
    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
