Is that a H233B ?

Re: LN65 / YN65 Hilux factory rims wanted
ok, it looks like I have found two rims, though am yet to inspect and pick up. Has anyone else got something tucked away? I can provide alternative rims if you need.

Re: North Range Road
Some mates went through North Range Road on the weekend. It is usually ok for shiny trips, but had heard it had cut up somewhat over winter, and this has proved correct. A couple of holes had become a bit gnarly, a pajero with stock tyre size got bellied in the ruts. I would advise not going in alon...

LN65 / YN65 Hilux factory rims wanted
Hi, has anyone got a set of (1984-1987) Hilux factory rims they would be willing to part with, I'm looking to restore a LN65 to original wheels. I believe they might be split rims. I also believe they are a 16x6" , six stud, with a plus 35mm offset. Any help appreciated, and if you know lots ab...

Re: Nissan Terrano R50 TD27 Smoking
I've heard about it, but i think it is possibly only a factor on the NON ETi models of TD27s.
my fuel pump went at 190k km.
BTW At 250k km your injectors are due a re condition. Not overly expensive.

Re: Nissan Terrano R50 TD27 Smoking
How many KM has the motor done? is it using any coolant? (probably not, but i have to ask) If not, the white smoke usually means excess fuel. I have seen white/gray smoke on a TD27 that had a blocked air intake tract, it was being starved of air, so hence mixtures were real rich. However, given that...

diagnostic analysis will narrow it down. How far are you from the dealer? sometimes(not always) the exhaust brake warning thing can be a red herring.

sounds like it's going to be very capable. Can't help you with the extractors, but they are an appealing item on the 2L motor (2.4 litre Diesel) so I assume they will help on the 2.8 motor too. They don't have much grunt, so any gain is noticeable . With regards to the LSD, it is common for them to ...

i could lend you one in a 265/70/16 on a 185 series Surf rim until you find what you need? It has (in theory) the same rolling diameter as most 31" tyres.

Re: The Gen 4 Paj
so is that an aftermarket intercooler kit that you installed or is it all custom? If it is custom, I can see it would've taken much planning and trial and error.
And yes-that is a strange place for a factory cooler. Not surprised it got bent.

what i do know is that if you have a (50mm?) dent in your sill (on a monocoque vehicle) then it is a warrant issue, so you need to protect them somehow.

advantages- very cheap lift.

yeah, you have correctly identified that it's not locking up the torque convertor as early as it should/used to.
