Ive got a dirty old v6 surf, and to be honest i dont find it too bad. It is a 5spd though I get about 400kms from the 55-60l tank. Its never going to set the world alight in a straight line race, but has enough power on tap when needed Best thing to do in my mind is sort the exhaust out. I put a ...

Cheers Guys for a great day on sunday. Glad i popped the Rallywood's Cherry finally! I was the guy in the fairly stock Green v6 Surf. Wife and I had a ball of a time. Thanks Reece and Mike for letting us tag along on a couple of tracks. Was awesome to have some really experianced guys around us to ...

hey guys

just thought i would give an update on this from the original plan....

I have been a bit scarce on the forums of late (like the last 3 months!!!!), but turns out my ac pumpm isnt hooked up....no belt by the looks of it!!!

still on my list of things to do though!!!!

Well i popped my devils gate cherry around red rocks today. Ive owned the hilux for over a year now and had never been out to red rocks... was a good day until i saw a group of idiots hanging on to the side of a terrano doing about 40ks down on the beach...I was just waiting for something to happen ...

so you dont want to do this on queens birthday weekend...that's the weekend before (last weekend of may) isnt it??

if it is that weekend, i could be keen

so is anyone still keen to take an afternoon to have a play around modifying a AC compressor in welly?

Wife and i are all moved to the new place...only problem is the hilux wont fit in the new garage...stink aye!

Ok guys. I have a 92 ln130 surf. My air conditioning and heater are a bit poked, so i was hoping to use the A/C compressor as an onboard air option. My question is has anyone in welly done it? Do you need to still need to run a tank? and is the factory a/c compressor sufficient? any help would be ...

Hey people.
Just managed to sign up to the forums.

My partner and i have a 1992 Surf v6 with a 50mm lift, mt/r's, hooks, custom exhaust. Will be putting on new rear bar, snorkel and radio together shortly.

relatively new to 4wd, but enjoying every minute of it

went out past martinborough to one of the farms. i think they run a lot of quads through the farms. A few washouts, couple of puggy bogs to cross, and then went down the river...was good fun aye.

havnt got stuck yet...the loud pedal seems to get me out most of the time!

so u sold your rig?

yeah..so do i..

Only problem is i bashed it up a bit on the weekend over the wairarapa! Oh well, will look at a nice new rear bar!
