New addition to the family unfortunalty means the Samurai is now to small. Keen to swap for an early 90's Hilux.
Let me know if your interested.
We are in Whangarei, but frequently travel to Auckland and further afield wouldn't be a problem.
Cheers,
Travis

Re: Ruakaka Beach
I have crossed the Ruakaka river mouth on foot a few times at low tide, depth was about knee height at deepest and fairly hard sand, however I dont think I would take a vehicle accross there because of the people who hide up in the sand dunes taking photos, looking for proof the beach needs to be sh...

Re: check out my new Samurai Project

Re: Wanting to buy new Snorkel kit for Suzuki SJ413
Have a look at auction #687559251 on trademe. I fitted one to the Samurai a while back, probably not the best looking, and would look even worse without the flares - but the price is ok. Just dont trust the hole template!!! I was lucky enough to mate everything up before cutting holes and glad I did...

Re: G16B needing more power/torque Superchargers ??
Different engine, but similar experience to meatc - I once supercharged an old 2.0lt 79 Mazda 626 with a sc12. Used a suck though carb setup, but just couldn't get rid of the detonation. It would be sweet until the engine warmed up. Amazingly it put up with multiple thrashings from stone cold and se...

I was having similar problems with mine dying at the most inappropriate times - people give you funny looks when you rev the sh*t out of it just to get through an intersection in a timely manner. Check the vacuum advance on the distributor - pull the hose of the carby and suck on it, if it's leaking...

Latest addition.
If you ever want to find out just how stuffed your shocks are - throw a canadian canoe on the roof! The death wobble at 90kph was pretty scary..But with some new back shocks we should be sorted for some awesome trips over summer! Cant wait.

Good arguments from both sides..thanks for the info guys. I tied a rag around it to keep oil from going everywhere. Problem not quite solved - but at least the driveway stays clean.

Re: Oil…oil…everywhere - Story of a Bleeding Samurai
What a good idea!! Sweet thanks for that. Do you need to run a return line with a restriction so the thing keeps pumping or do they just supply what is required and slow down/stall?

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

I’m pretty sure I found the root of my problems (other than a tired old mo...

So last month my lil zook started to drip oil on the nice new driveway - this steadily grew to the point where I started parking on the lawn and killed a huge patch of grass.

As far as payment goes, if you have a spare suzi 8 valve 1.3 carby lying around we could do a swap?

For future referance:
BS035 - Smaller O-ring on vertical shaft of distributor.
BS118 - Larger O-ring on distributor housing into cylinder head.
Saves buying them through the Suzi dealer at 10x's the price.

Hi Guys, hoping someone can shed a bit of light of how much 'power' DOC has over paper roads.
