Wtf??!! http://i.imgur.com/BChXf9g.jpg?2 http://i.imgur.com/RtY7OLv.jpg?2 and my favorite... http://i.imgur.com/UpYe2kX.jpg?1 so I had no joy finding a Hilux single cab well-side, rare and sought after it would seem, this was cheap, its new, and is a little different :x , lets add some of the Genera...

x2 on NOT using MANZ cage tubing for an exo, I did, and it bends and dents like toilet roll tube

lol
Use something with descent wall thickness... unless you're going for light weight, in which case use chromoly

Jafa

As above, would like the panels and tailgate to be nice, but the floor and inside can be shitty

Yup, what DB says...
Ive never used 4wd going up there with the exception on a miserable night in blizzard conditions where we barely made it with 35" muds lol
But that was years ago, the road is getting better and better, on a good day you can get up there in a 2wd road car.

Jafa

Oh I thought Dave had entered? sure I read that somewhere...

Jafa

Hey Dave, yeah I'll be down, but as a marshall, time to give back a little so we can still have these events in the future

I look forward to having a looksey at your buggy, and seeing what ideas I can steal!

be good to catch up for a chat

Fixed all the pics from the first five or so pages, spent hours getting the pics off the server and up to imgur then relinked. So I've only had the old girl out a handful of times lately, but now its at home, not 30 minutes away in another shed, makes working on it a lot easier. Speaking of working ...

Jafa

Nah forget that auto shite! :lol: 4.88's are plenty strong enough, Ive not broken one yet, just build, or get them built properly as per Zuk's site http://www.gearintalls.com Ive broken a trick 30 spline rear axle, never an r&p, whilst thrashing it on 40's. Definitely need to put some RCV's in t...

Whereabouts are you?, could be interested in the doors....

Jafa

And so is this...

RG can pedal

I'd be more interested in setting it up correctly rather than worrying about the difference between a USA gear and a Yukon, check this site out for the ultimate setup procedure for a Toyota diff http://www.gearinstalls.com/ quoted from PBB, Hartwig motorsports 8516......

Check this out! Jari-Matti Latvala, WRC driver, winning Lahti Historic rally in a BDA..... this boy can drive, so much oversteer

He was agressive in a WRC car, in an Escort... fantastic!

Jafa

Have a read thru this site... He is also approachable via email. http://www.gearinstalls.com/index.htm I second this, Zuk builds tough diffs, and although he does deviate from factory methods and settings, his nuggets are bulletproof... that sounds just wrong... :lol: Just follow his example and yo...

I hear what you're saying, whilst hes done a great job, and its an awesome vehicle, there's something just not kosher about a Subaru powered and 4wd'd Escort....

Jafa

remembered it... Roger Townsend

Jafa

Spot of real driving skill here....

Reminds me of a chap who raced a white and blue Escort at the Wellington street race many years ago, similar style, spent most of the lap on three wheels, cant for the life of me remember his name...

Jafa

Busy hunting around for a factory service manual for the W56 gearbox and found this lol,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Taro

and yes, the gearbox service manual for the Taro is available online

Jafa

Just take your ecu to pickapart etc and grab a plug that will fit, there's not that many types that Toyota used, I needed one for mine, think I got it out of a 3sge Celica or something

Jafa

Hi everyone, need some help to fix my daily driver Surf, anyone got an input shaft for a G52 manual box they will part with, or a whole box that's broken
? Even a Hiace van, or 2wd hilux input would probably work, mines missing a couple of teeth

Cheers
Jafa

Jafa

brutal and elegant ... yes the perfect words to describe a Group B Quattro

Jafa

Stunning driving for sure, gonads the size of basketballs lol
Whilst these aren't as fast as todays WRC weapons, for me they are still my favorites, such a big, bad, beasty and angry car!

Same rally, but 30 years earlier....

Plenty of great footage on the 'Tube

Jafa

Yeah its graded... Te Aroha side is graded shiny... and Kati side is hard!

Jafa

Jafa

Yes it is...

I have a complete engine/auto/transfercase for one of these, leaks oil from the PS side rear cam seal. great spare for the new owner should they want one

Jafa

stick to the main track on the way up, if you want to have more of a challenge, then come down the Kati side, well as far as you can anyway....

Jafa

Kneadit
works great

Jafa

hehe :lol: Yes not my best work... gotta say I have new found respect for those that drive these tracks with open diffs, having only 1 wheel drive on the back was a major hindrance, 40' tires or not :D the flop, well yup driver error lol, besides, it wouldn't be normal to take it to Rallywoods witho...
