Look, something else to spend money on :D

'96 FZJ80 94k
F&R Factory Lockers
Safari Turbo with intercooler, Unichip, and FMU
3" Downpipe, exhaust, high flow cat
HKS Turbo Timer
38 Gal. long range gas tank
3" OME Lift
BFG Mud Terrain 295/75/16
Heavy duty sway bars
ARB front bumper w/ Superwinch x9000, Hella's, and side bars
Rear Kaymar bumper w/ spare carrier, jerry can holder, hi-lift mount, telescoping work light, CB mount
Aussie rear drawer system
DBA Gold drilled and slotted rotors all around w/ braided lines
HID Conversion
Dual battery setup w/ red and yellow top Optima's
Center Diff lock mod

The last dyno run showed 325 ft/lbs of torque to the wheels with a perfect A/F ratio.

I can't wait to take this baby out and see what she can do. I think the first mod will be an upgraded VB followed by powder coated rims (too much bling.)

More PICS

I think you need to send me that truck before it costs you any more money. :D :D :D
 
I think that is just about perfect.

Clean 80 and congrats on the purchased, it looks like the air intake black rubber hose hittin' the bottom of the hood when it close? I see HID ballast next to your additional yellow optima battery :flipoff2: :D

Thanks!

Ya, it rubs a little, gonna have to fix it. The HID's were out of a mercedes. The ballast rattles pretty easily, gonna need to anchor them better before I hit the trails I think.

It's almost TOO clean, I need to hurry up and put some scratches on it before it ends up like my 4Runner.
 
Please, stop now and allow me to come collect that truck from you before danger is too close to avoid. I will be more than happy to take this money-pit off your hands right now at a discounted rate of $1,000.

Seriously, great buy! I'm jealous.

Don't let him rip you off, I will give you $1,500 because I understand how desperate the situation is. :D :D
 
Interesting. Is that the standard ducting that comes with the Safari turbo kit, or is the intercooler routing done separate by whatever means necessary?

Oh and... nice pickup. :D
 
Congrats....I saw that LC on craigslist and was wondering how fast somebody was going to snatch that up. I've actually seen it around Seattle a couple of times...nice buy.

I'm not an expert on the kit by any means, but from all the pics I've seen while researching it, I think that its standard for the kit. The intercooler is defintiely part of the kit so it seems reasonable that they would have a packaged solution for it.
 
Congrats on your new turbo rig. Totally looks awesome from any angle. You are a lucky bastid:flipoff2: I'm drooling.
 
I saw that truck on Craigslist as well. Looked like it was pretty dialed and ready to hit the trails with confidence.

I picked up my truck instead due to it being 100% stock and single owner being 65 years old and him never taking it off road.
 
this has better have 300K miles on it or I'm going to be jealous...! :)
 
Very very very nice rig. That ducting there is original Safari as far as I can tell. Anyways, very nice rig. :cheers:

Try less thank 100k. He got it just in the nick of time!;)
 
What happened to the side ARB rails that were in the Craigslist photos? Did PO or you remove them?
 
It's so clean that you should be able to eat off of it!!!

VERY cool!

Mot ;)
