Been wanting to do it for a while... What is the biggest number of Hilux's that have been at the highest pub at one time?

AM Racing

coz their toilets spin otherwise too

AM Racing

Didnt want to be the cushion under the Lux :alvarin:

I also got my bellhousing from TT and have a whine in my gearbox now which was NOT there before. Gonna call them in the morning! Nice build!

My Mickey mouse lights where put on for a trip through the Transkei. I intend mounting them lower once I relocate the winch relay box in front. But I must say..... Mickey takes me where I need be and where I don't need to be.... :twisted: Andy doesnt mention this, but he nearly put his LTD on its s...

Welcome..... Seen them in the R140-R150k bracket. To the right buyer, yes. But to move it R120-R130k...

AM Racing

yeah, nothing broken though....

AM Racing

We have found dry solder joints on a few of the Toyota ecu's. Open the box and inspect the joints with a magnifying glasss and resolder where needed. Do this first before breaking the bank....

I swopped my Hilux for Land Rover

Just fitted STT's on my van. Very impressed. They are SUPER quiet for a M/T moresothan the BF A/T's I had on

Was just looking for the LR to burn. See someone is organizing!

Welcome!

When overhauling a motor we replace the water pump and thermostat as well. The cylinder head must be retorqued after 1000km or so and it must be done cold.

AM Racing

Well it moved on its own steam today!!!

Still some issues to sort out like the GPO output for the radiator fan, air filter piping, a/c piping and final dyno tuning.

AM Racing

You will need to run the KZ box for sure. You will still pay for a KZ even if the motor is broken. BUT, you will have the diff's you need. You shouldn't sit with your 2.7 if you must move it. Goodluck with your build!!!

AM Racing

Mooooi

AM Racing

Hi Dylan Please give a bit of feedback on your conversion. I have wanted to do this for a long time. Ive already baught a 3UZ and may have found a suitable 2.5 D4D. Does the 2.5 D4D use the same R151F gearbox and diffs as the 3.0 D4D? You dont say if you are running a Gen 6/Vigo Hilux. I'm not sure...

AM Racing

Well just a follow up: My motor is in AGAIN! Yes it had to come out! On start up it had a BAD tappet noise with a corresponding misfire/zzzz. A leakage test found it blowing straight out the exhaust valves on the lh bank. Seized valves were the culprit. My supplier supplied another motor but I was n...

Vervang die filter. As die filter in is moet die liggie weer herstel.

Didnt know who to call for my plumbing????

AM Racing

There is switch on top of the diff (two pin plug)that shows the diff lock is engaged. Either the switch is faulty or there is a break in the wire at the plug. I have had both problems on mine....

R1400 for 35% for my D/C. Auto Armour with a 5 year warranty

AM Racing

There's a clip where this one actually sets alight...... It does loose a bit of the finnesse factor but it does brings out the lunatic you. Would lOve one

AM Racing

Welcome..... Nice array of artillery. Let me know what you want for the Lux. My swaar is looking for one.

AM Racing

Get the pump timing checked. Reinstallthe chip and get it retuned....... 450km eish.....

AM Racing

I want!!!!

AM Racing

From what he said it appears they may have been checked with the scan tool before deciding not to do a chip

AM Racing

That is not OEM. Probably a tracker earth or something......

AM Racing

Dicktator for its pure simplicity and reliability
Spitronics has more features inc lambda control, overheating protection

We get good results from both. I think the only thing to consider between the two is the tuner and the service backup you get,,,,,

AM Racing

The injector leak off is checked with a scan tool. We check this before doing a chip install as it can lead to injector failure and/or engine damage. The injecors may still be within spec but with the extra demand placedon them it can result in a failure. BTW, any injector replacement or injector se...

Looks brutal... 35's look awesome!

Depending on the size, i mounted mine above the passenger footwell justr below the ecu's. I made a brackect and it goes there nicely. I have a 1000w btw...

Yes egt's go 800+ and it gets warms. Run's like hell but for a shorttime!

Typically if you are changing exhaust a custom tune would be best. But for the money spent with the downpipe in my opinion its not worth it for the gains. A PnP chip would typically retail at +-R5500 inc vat and a hard wired chip +-R4000inc vat. Do the decat! It is free power so to speak and leave t...

AM Racing

The PnP chip has a tune that Dastek has developed from hundreds of tunes they have done. It is available from Dastek and we have found them to deliver 10-15% more power on the wheels without any limp mode problems. You can get your chip custom tuned later for more power though if you want.....

AM Racing

I think with the air suspension the articulation would be awesome!

AM Racing

If you have replaced injectors you MUST get the Unichip retuned. Unplug it for now and insert the bridge plug. The black smoke indicates an overfueling scenario and your exhaust gas temps will increase! This can lead to a window in a piston......
