If you can't afford it. Why are you buying it?

I can afford it, but it's like anything. You get a car, then you wanna' do $10k worth of mods because who wants a standard car? haha!

Exactly, I’m having to wait to do more as money doesn’t seem to grow on trees for me either!

Looking at all the upgrades and wondering how I'm gonna' afford it.

Will probably need to take it to see Corey to and sort out some rarios for better cruising speeds/revs. Fkn diesels.


Think mine sits on 1750 @110kmh which seems ok but it’s got the new 6 speed auto

Haha, maybe!

Some stuff is interesting, but yeah, a lot of nuffies around, I notice most of them own dual cab utes though.

Hope it’s not a POOTROL the 3ltr is a shit box

 

HAHAHA! Nah, that ZD30 is the worst!

Only Patrol I'd own is a coil/coil ute with the 4.2L? petrol. In South Africa they came with a well body tray which is pretty rad.

Edit: Or a Y62, ugly on the outside but what a motor and interior!

But it would still get an LS swap right?

Because that would seriously rustle some jimmy's.

 

I do enjoy rustling jimmys, supercharged 1UZ?

Your a weirdo.

Is it a lada niva?

 

seconded

 

Also, at the risk of showing my age, I actually test drove one of the first Lada Niva's in WA, back when their stealership was on Murray st in the city.
At the time I was driving a gemini with rust holes that I could fit my head through, and a 13.8:1 CR with stupidly inappropriate cam.
The drive home was still quieter and more comfortable than the test drive.

PS - Hai Kunce!

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
