top stuff daniel... cant wait to see it with 4 inch lift on her!! gotta love luxes! they are called hilux for a reason... dont know why some idiots lower them :)

looks like the oldies were bf goodies all terain t/a's awesome tires aswell... not gonna get as many kms outta ur mickys compared to the goodriches

i take it u like to head off on the beaten track??

used to go camping up the flinders all the time with family i can appreciate a good forbie(4wd)

td or petrol?

:D

its petrol so got plenty of power thinkin of puttin the trd supercharging kit on it

nar leaving paint standard this time i like the white dosnt show up much an easy to look after

an i had plains for ages to put rims an tyres on it just not the cheapest car to mod as tyres alone are $310 an hav to buy 6 of them + new wheels to suit then have to make braket in the bak to hold the spares as the standard mountin spot is to small to fit 33z

the scarly thing so far is the suspension cost as much as a basic bult rb so far bloody expensive stuff

an this is been bult for serious 4wdin not just for looks

nice,,,,, ill post a pick of my 1985 toyota hilux sr5 with 33 inchmongrel mudiggers, 2.5inch truck pipes custom tray and fresh respray.its not done yet but it looks alright. i was thinking of putting a supra motor or v8 in mine.arghhh power.

cheers... michael

here is a pic of my hilux ill post one of the truck pipes and other stuff on it. shes mean. and a pic of what it looked like about 3 months ago. so do you do much 4wdriving much mate???? i only done mine up cause i got bored. and got sick of jumping the table tops at the motorcross track with it. when it was old so i changed my shocks and used greasable shackles and stuff. p.s sorry to highjack your thread.

a bit of food for thought... i guy around the corner from my old place has a lime green lux... looked like a 2002 model crue cab.. jacked up off its face with mud terrains.. here is the golden part... he dropped a worked 1jz in it with a hefty high mount...... yummmm

nar go 4" suspension then i can go 35" in the future money not a prob i goin all out on the set up as im saving to do simpson next yr. gotta get sum 4wd hrs under my belt first.

i go out 4wdin so far about once every 2 weeks. only been on one trip from salt creek to beach port along the beach an sand dunes

great fun an alows u 2 just getta away from it all so easy just need a swap an bit of wood an off ya go for a weekend

any chance u can get sum piks of this hilux with the 1j in it

i would hav put the a lexus v8 in it first just coz of the touque it would b a much btr choice

Pfffft go a freaking 2JZ lads, cheap as half cuts theses days, and ahhhhhh done!! Plenty of Nm there!! Only advantage of the Toyota V8 would be the smoother power curve, ie NO boost!! depends on your application really!!

My mate has a NEW TRD Hilux on order at GC Toyota, top of the range dual cab leather and all!! Is going to be a nice as tow car, much better than the BA XR8 ute!!

    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
