3rd time now. Hand brake has always been crap but need to sort it as I'm getting over tweaking it for all I can get out of it to pass wof. Anyone else have problems with the performance of the hand brake with the mr2 caliper? Thinking of running the prado hand drum brakes. Any suggestions?

1rugger

on mine I've removed the egr,throttle body & installed an inter cooler which gave about ~150deg c drop before turbo @ 100kph and then a 3" dump pipe from turbo which dropped it about ~100 c so it now runs at about 300-350 @ 100kph on flat road.

Cheers for the offers guys, looks like sambo from welly has one and is comeing down next week

Thanks Heaps

i thought the same that 4.3 would be pretty common and there would be a few lying around.

1rugger

under $200 would be nice

1rugger

I have broken a few teeth on my rear diff

so looking for a complete open center diff head or crown wheel and pinon at 4.3 ratio.

1rugger

Have you had a Leak down check done on the cylinders to rule out head/piston damage? check glow plugs for damage, get injectors checked then change fuel pump would be my next steps.

1rugger

have you checked the loom with multimeter to make sure you don't have a broken wire/connection and/or swap the computer with a known good one?

1rugger

the timing control valve is in the injector pump.

I've been through from the springfield side by dirt bike :D :D :D through torless station(private land) to the via duct and the only way across is the train bridge as it's a big drop & the wimac is quite deep/ fast flowing in the gorge there. how ever it would be a good drive to via duct with mi...

I believe they take a 2.4 mechanical pump with boost compensator and fit new internals for the extra fuel flow requirements. but have also heard that it has a drastic effect on fuel economy but have not been able to confirm this yet.

1rugger

had a great weekend, special because the lux didn't break anything

was also great to meet a few new people from here & catch up with the locals again. Thanks to nut's for organizing it all & letting me set up camp on his lawn

. can't wait for the next trip over to the coast.

i can see probably 1/4 of mine from the crankshaft side and it's one peice with no holes or rivits so i'm gessing i have a solid flywheel.

Thanks for you're help

1rugger

bugger, Thanks for the info Lynx, does anyone know if you can tell the difference between the two flywheel's when installed or give me a pic of the crank shaft side of the flywheel?

1rugger

nope it doesnt look like that, its missing the actuall clutch face. Cheers Daniel correct me if I'm wrong but the clutch face would be on the other side(aft side of fly wheel) pic is of fwd side(engine side of fly wheel). which i can see from crank shaft to ring gear on fwd face and look's like a s...

1rugger

went out and had a look up the drain slot and it looks like a solid cast fly wheel when compared to this pic http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b400/fj40/surftrannysara013.jpg and the engine & box have 350,000km's so gessing that some one would have replaced it already. can anyone confirm that th...

1rugger

dunno what mine is, that is what i'm trying to work out so i can get the clutch before i pull it apart, I'm guessing it's dualmass. & definitely clutch on way out as it was slipping when trying to spin tyres up in the mud

.

1rugger

does anyone on here know the difference between the nz new and import surf? as i think i'm going to need a new clutch soon and no longer have the details of the truck i wrecked to get the engine& box so carjam can't help me. as one has a dual mass flywheel and one has a solid flywheel & diff...

1rugger

the earlier hilux's have a button which can be accessed on the cluster by pulling a small rubber bung out which is about the same location as the odometer reset but off to the left. if that makes any sense

i brought a new argoshield bottle from a welding shop on annex road here in chch for $500 and it's $45(i think) for them to fill it. previous to that i had co2 which worked well but welds weren't as nice as with argoshield and cost me more to fill. also tried the small disposable one's and they wher...
