I actually have been talking to a guy from the shop that you posted pictures from so I think I'll just ask him haha. He says that they are getting ready to do a kit for the surf but they wanted over 1k usd for it and that seems maybe a bit excessive. I'll see if I can just buy the piping from...
It's unfortunate that there aren't any pictures of the intercooler itself. Size and thickness would definitely have a big influence. At what temp would you make the switch from 15 to 5?
Thanks for the info. I actually could probably do the front mount myself as I have a supply for any silicone and hard tubing I would need. There is a question of intercooler size, not sure how tall and thick it would need to be for effectiveness. Also, can't find 5w-40 in a non full synthetic...
So I have a kzn185 here in the US and had a few questions. I guess the first question is which oil is everyone running in their Toyota diesels? I live in Kansas city and the fluctuations in Temps has me running 5-40. But it's not like Australia where I can get penrite oil anywhere. I've been...
Hey guys. It's been a very long time since I had a Toyota, but I finally bought one again. That blurple hilux surf you've probably seen around is mine. I ordered a set of 4x innovations sliders, but the guy I found to weld it up isn't meeting any timelines or anything so I was wondering if...
I think it's about 1200 miles. PO has the car in the shop and the gauges are being looked at. Looks like speedo stops working after 50-60 kmh. This is the super basic cluster that only has 3 guages: speed, fuel, and temp.
An additional question to go along with the gauges. This BJ70 has the most basic cluster I have ever seen. Just a fuel gauge, speedo, and temp gauge. Will one of the more comprehensive clusters plug into this or is the wiring harness totally different?
I would think for a 1990 LHD variant it is going to be a electronic driven unit. I would think that there is a possible connection to both of those gauges being bad, since they are both on the right hand side of the cluster.
Hello everyone! I used to own a 40th fzj80 until I sold it to another member in 2017. Well I am getting back into LCs and am in the process of buying a bj70. I was wondering if anyone in the area had any experience with them. Also, I was wondering if I could set up a wrenching day or something...
I am in the process buying a 1990 BJ70 with a 3b engine. I have seen video of it running and am aware of all its quirks at this point. The only one that I am wondering if I could fix before I road trip it home is the gauge cluster. The voltage and rpms work. But the speedo and temp gauges do...
