    Turbo LC100 Video

    Thanks for finding that! I beg to differ....my isometric, 4D enhanced biometric spatial pixelated kinetic gigiawattizer video analyser showed that the power of the lancruiser was simply too much for the rice racer!

    Turbo LC100 Video

    Hi all! Aways back, someone posted a link to an in-car video (prob taken in the middle east) of a freeway drag between a rice racer and an LC100...anyone still have the link somewhere in their favorites? Thanks..

    Third front diff broken.

    Hard luck mate. Dunno bout your lx470, but in Oz, the 100 series live axle front diffs are out of a hilux ute, and are considerably weaker than the rear diff. It is a known weak point on the 100 series, and yours is a common story, especially those who try to snatch in reverse. I presume yours...

    LC 2001 vs 350Z 2005

    Looks like that would be one of the safari kits fitted to the LC100 4.5L motor. I read a few reviews of them in oz, base level of tune 240Kw, 510nm torque, and that was on low boost. They pulled mid 14s with the 4sp auto, and used less fuel too. God knows what kind of power you could get if you...

    Parking brake adjustment

    Good advice, you do have to take the wheels off to adjust the shoes. You will see a rubber grommet on the drums, pull that out and in goes the flat head screwdriver. I agree, be very careful not to adjust the shoes too tight like I did, I found even a little bit of drag will over heat them with...

    Yep, you're right, I apologise to all and sundry incl. Browndog for responding in a personal way. Will bake a fresh humble pie for morning tea. :o But on the bright side, only one more post and I see I qualify for more flaming!! :rolleyes:

    Snorkles

    Touche, Mr Brown woofer. With reference to thread 23, if you re-read my post (this time, apply your exclusive 'skill of reading and understanding' I apparently lack), likewise no-where did I imply that it was your opinion, but was referring to Toyota. The point of including the snorkel thread...

    Hey HDJ100L, is this where you got the idea for your exhaust? http://www.angelfire.com/nc2/mycoffeecan/page1.html

    Snorkles

    Crikey! I think Airtec would be a little miffed that their snorkel is considered to be for dust driving only! Mine doesn't seem to leak, despite many deep crossings...even have the fan into radiator marks to prove it (yes, I know I should have fitted a blind) The 700mm reccomended in the owners...

    Snorkles

    That really sux, squidcanine. That is AU$830! They are only AU$450 or so over here, so they are charging you at least AU$400 for postage = ridiculous. Wonder how big the box is? Could you get me some idea of box size & weight, and I'll work out a better deal...Australia post is pretty cheap if...

    Upper centre console disassembly?

    G'day all. The green backlight has died on my LC100 stereo, anyone know how to pull the centre dash console apart to pull out the stereo in a futile effort to see whats up? I've been poking around with a penknife, but, only managed to make dangerous sounding creakings so far, and retreated...it...

    Beach Driving - Questions?

    Just to confuse the issue, used to have a mazda tribute (ford escape I think in your country) with a lockable centre viscous diff. If the centre diff wasn't locked, then it would almost certainly come to a stop in any soft sand - front wheels would start to spin. It went no worries at all when...
