Hi all Recently purchased a 2007 year 200 Series LC. Absolutely love it. It had a remap on it when I purchased it, and it had a bit of black smoke out of the exhaust when accelerating hard. Went to a tuner today who did the EGR delete, and he said he changed the tune up a bit without putting it...

Hi everyone, I recently upgraded from a 100 series to a 2015 diesel 200 series. I warmed the engine up and plugged in techstream with the following values. I'd really apricate it if anyone can let me know if these values are ok? I understand the injector feedback should be +/- 3.

Our Land Cruiser 200 has been with us for almost 2 months now, but I was able to write about it when we first got it and posted it somewhere else. I'd like to share our story here. Unexpectedly Ours The past week for me has been absolutely astounding. We just picked up a 2011 Land Cruiser in...

My Troopy Overland Build (V8 Turbo Diesel VDJ78) For me, 70 Series Series Land Cruiser family is one of the best looking vehicles ever built; and in my opinion, at the pinnacle of that is the Troopy. It is fair to say I have had a soft spot for them, having owned a couple now, but mostly...

The options for full synthetic in the recommended weight by Toyota are limited in my country. I did find one by Repsol but have noticed an increased oil consumption over my previous oil which was conventional 15W-40. Repsol 50501 TDI 5W40 is the name. I am looking to extend the service...

Hi Guys I im looking at buying a 79 Dual Cab with the 1VD-FTV engine and wanted to know if they are having any issues in terms of reliability? I have the choice of going for the 1HZ or 1VD-FTV (V8) and leaning towards the latter due to performance benefits. Thanks

Hi all, Starting to do a 4 door troopy type of thing. Aquala call them quad cab, so I will call it the same. I like the look of their one so heading towards that look, but being in Australia it's price prohibitive to ship that body here otherwise I would. Started off with a 1984 FJ45 ute in...
