Hi just joined up tonight. found this site when trying to find some info on intercooling my terrano.
Ive had a few 4x4s from suzuki's to landrovers and used to be in a local 4x4 club.
I love 4x4ing havnt done much in the last few years only just got one again after having a 2wd ute for a while. my main pashion is trail riding on my Suzuki drz400 nothing beats being on the back wheel.
Im a stainless steel fabricator and am allways doing perc jobs for mates.
Just about to start doing a heap of sheet meatal work on ford jail bar from fabriating the fire wall, floor welldeck, grill and other bits im sure the list will go on.
Cheers chris

Welcome to the site, from another Terrano fan.
Keep us posted on how you get on with your intercooling project and what differences it makes.
It's something I have tought about on mine too, but the space it takes up is a concern as I am wanting to put in a 2nd battery.

Hi thanks for the welcome ,
yea im keen to have a go at this. i see some people have put the intercooler down behind the left headlight.
But im gana try and top mount it but there realy isnt much room so may go for a smaller cooler yet?
And once i work my round this sight i will post pics of it when its done with all the problems that will pop up.
I have a 91 terrano 5 speed with a big bore goes good so would like to see any difrence it will make.
