Re: after conversion info for my 86 ln65 hilux

did a VL commodore RB30 conversion on a LN56 a few years ago.

then just brought a twin cam head and loom from a R33 nissan skyline, bolted it on.

may pay to look at getting good LSD's installed first, they will get you more places then a suspension lift. If you have, then good on you.

Re: 1UZFE acceleration

find a pinout diagram of the ecu.

could be several things

engine speed sensor, afm, vacuum leak or if it was originally bolted to an auto and is running the ecu from the same car you will need to trick the ecu into thinking the gearbox behind it is in either park or neutral.

Re: Hijack during off roading! need help

yes you do have to be a registered to charge for salvage and tow.

which means you also need a recovery endorsement as well as a Trade service license and to be G.S.T registered.

so i wouldn't bother paying until they can prove these documents are in there legal possession.

Re: diff breather for ln106 hilux

go to a gas fitter and get brass fittings, thread on one end to match your diffs and trans case and 1/4 inch on the other.

go buy how ever many meters of 1/4 hose and some cable ties.

cost max, 5 bucks a fitting, 20 to 50 for the non pressure rated hose.

hour under the truck.

also, the teeth are larger then that of a standard hilux diff. may explain why there is only 43 of them on the crown wheel,


also note the pinion shaft is shorter then the standard one i have in the shed.
