Hilux 4x4 Forum

IndianaJones7746

I have shot both and personally the .308 felt better so am leaning towards the .308 You answered your own question. The differences between the caliber's are so small, that it's almost irrelevant. For a first rifle it is much more important that you enjoy the rifle, no point in getting a much resea...

OK, R151F on the KZ-TE 4X4 then, what about the 4X2 KZ and D4D?

Thank you

IndianaJones7746

What is the difference between the KZTE and D4D gearboxes then?

I was told by some scrapyards that I phoned, that they are not the same, granted they might not be the best source of info.

Thank you

IndianaJones7746

Hi

Could anyone tell me the Aisin/Toyota model codes of the RWD manual gearboxes in:

1. Hilux Raised Body 3.0 KZ-TE (1998 - 2005)
2. Hilux Raised Body 3.0 D4D 1KD (2005 - 2013)

Is it "R150" and "R155"?
Or does the D4D Hilux not have an Aisin gearbox?

Thank you

IndianaJones7746

As Thabo says, always have diesel on the farm, and buy it directly from the depot.

IndianaJones7746

Hi I want to convert my work-"donkey" 2.4D SFA Hilux to Turbo Diesel, and want it to keep it an all Toyota conversion. Which of the following engines would you recommend: 1. 3C-T (2.2TD import) 2. 2L-T (2.4TD import) I believe they are getting very scarce, which is a negative. But since th...

IndianaJones7746

Vir watter doel gaan jy die bakkie aanwend Nathan? Ek meen die 2.4D is 'n baie goeie werkesel, lig op diesel in die veld, op die plaas en die dorp, maar langpad is dit 'n lui enjin, en moet jy hom maar hard ry om 110-120km/h te handhaaf, en dan val die dieselverbruik. Onderdele raak skaars, en soos ...

Jammer

Aangeheg is 'n foto van my 1990 model enjin, dis die ou tipe 55kW 2L (Aluminium tappet cover) enjin.
Verskoon tog hoe vuil hy is. Die "heater hose" is afgeblok.

IndianaJones7746

Hello Nathan Het daardie enjin ooit so geloop, en met 'n turbo op? Dit is moontlik dat dit nie net 'n "head" gaan kos nie, 'n turbo enjin het gewoonlik 'n laer "compression ratio" as 'n "normally aspirated" enjin. Wat jy ook nog moet oorweeg is of die enjinblok afkomsti...

IndianaJones7746

Maybe swopping it for a 1400 Nissan might be easier?

IndianaJones7746

BMG / Bearing Man should also stock it.

IndianaJones7746

The Cambelt cover makes me think its a 7MGTE, turbo version of the 3litre Cressida engines.

The intake to turbo piping on a 1JZGTE, also does not cross over the engine.

IndianaJones7746

Thanks Tumelo

Dankie Piet, maar ongelukkig ken ek niemand wat ook nog 'n 1ste model RSi of GLi Twincam het nie. Thanks for the advice Dylan Thus far I've found out that the 4AGE 16Valve and 20Valve sensors are very similar, only the voltage range differs slightly. The 16Valve unit should measure between, 4 - 6V, ...

IndianaJones7746

Hi guys Sorry that this isn't a Hilux question, but I hope that someone can help me. After 2 weeks at a Toyota dealer, they traced my 1988 Conquest RSi's cutting-out problem to a faulty Vacuum/MAP sensor. The problem now is that, TSA has discontinued the part. And no secondhand examples are availabl...

IndianaJones7746

So the only Toyota's I saw at the show was the Hilux from Killarney Racetrack and Nicky Hanekom's Celica Historic race-car. Like Hoppy said, I also came to the conclusion that Toyota's are just the best build vehicles around. With the number of old Toyota's still on the road, they are just not deeme...

IndianaJones7746

Hi guys Sorry to bump this topic, but I'm curious about something, and not exactly sure where to post the question. Firstly, being a classic car fan, I'm looking very much forward to attending this event. What gets me though is this... SAVVA (South African Vintage and Veteran Association), the contr...

IndianaJones7746

Thanks guys

I bought a Canon Powershot S2-IS in 2005, which is similar to the Fujifilm S2960.
It too, can take video clips, but takes up a lot of memory, and the sound quality isn't that good.

How much better, are the new "Superzoom" / Bridge cameras, at taking video clips?

Thanks

IndianaJones7746

My 15 year old Border Collie does the same, almost like she has a hairball stuck in her throat.
Nothing much you can do.

IndianaJones7746

Baie dankie vir die advies, voel vry om nog advies te gee.

So basically, I should try and get a HD one that takes SD Cards....
Any other features to look out for?

Do you sell camera's Cassie?

Thanks

IndianaJones7746

Hi guys With the little one on the way, I'd like to buy a digital video camera to capture those precious moments, but with the amount of models available to choose from, I have no clue what to get. Do you want Hard Disk Drive recording or Flash Drive? Is it worth going for High Definition? Which oth...

IndianaJones7746

Thanks guys. I've used Market Toyota before, prices seemed OK, just wanted to know if there would be anyone better. With 5 different Toyota's in the family(until recently 6), it's always good to know where you can get good service and prices, I'm going to need a timing belt and tensioners for the fa...

IndianaJones7746

Hi guys

Which Toyota dealership has the best parts prices in Cape Town?

Thank you

IndianaJones7746

Phone Caryota in Stikland 021 903 6935, they would probably have dealt with similar requests and might even have the parts in stock.

IndianaJones7746

Hi guys

Does anyone know where on the internet I might find a manual with the timing belt removal and installation procedure for a 1998 - 2001 Toyota Camry 200Si (3S-FE engine)?

Thanks

IndianaJones7746

I don't know about the transfer case output shaft bearing, but the universal joint cross that I replaced on the prop-shaft was bigger than the one on the differential side.

Sorry to bring you all back to this topic. I'm currently doing some maintenance work on my 1984 SFA Hilux, have been replacing the rear brake drums and shoes, changing fluids, etc. Was actually also looking for a noise from the front suspension, and traced it to the universal joint at the transfer c...

IndianaJones7746

So this is the finished product...
Hope it works.

IndianaJones7746

Think of it this way...

When he wants to sell it, you could buy a very cheap Land Cruiser, that's never been off-road.

IndianaJones7746

Is it on GP plates?
Looks like the Japanese "Bosozoku" style, maybe it's an import.

IndianaJones7746

Another spot is at the Kweekkraal primary school about 20km from Citrusdal towards Clanwilliam.
But Cederberg Municipality Traffic Department covers Citrusdal, Clanwilliam, Graafwater and Lambert's Bay, which could make it lots of places.

IndianaJones7746

Curious....
How do you know it was taken in the Cederberg?

IndianaJones7746

Thanks Gary, have been there once, didn't know there was a car shop.

If I can't find original stripes, whom in Cape Town might be good to have them custom made, from a picture?

Thanks

IndianaJones7746

Hi guys

Does anyone know where in the Western Cape I can buy the old brown "Action Option" vinyl stripes for my 1984 SFA Hilux, or have it made up?

Thanks

IndianaJones7746

Will tow an IFS Raised Body Hilux, behind a 6m long motor-home built on a Mercedes truck chassis.

I've started on the A-frame, will post pics when I'm done.

IndianaJones7746

Were there ever pictures posted of this conversion?

What was the fuel consumption figure of this Prado V6 powered SFA?

Thanks

IndianaJones7746

Good to know.

Is that the same John Brussels that drag races a Nissan Skyline?

IndianaJones7746

Hi

Does anyone have any advice on towing a vehicle with an A-Frame, or any advice on building an A-Frame?

Should or could the towed vehicle's wheel alignment be adjusted slightly to track better?

The vehicle would be towed behind a motor-home.

Thanks

IndianaJones7746

OK, thanks guys.
I appreciate your insight.

IndianaJones7746

Thanks again for you input guys Would a 5L give better fuel consumption than a KZ-TE, under those conditions? If I go for a 7M or 2JZ, what would be the best fuel consumption I could hope for, also fully loaded at cruising speed? Also, who sells standard ECU's for 2JZ motors? I'd really like to buil...

IndianaJones7746

Thanks for all the replies thus far guys. With "overlanding", I mean I'm planning to travel with tour groups into our neighbouring countries (Namibia, Botswana, etc), not to travel to Tanzania, or Egypt. I'm able to do most of the conversion myself, and could go up to R18000 for the engine...

IndianaJones7746

Hi guys I'm sure this topic have been dealt with to death, but I'll appreciate it if you'd humor my question. If you were to do an engine conversion on an overlanding SFA Hilux, which engine would you choose? The criteria is as follows: Must be a Toyota engine Must be fitted to a manual gearbox Must...

As ek reg onthou, was Field-Marshall later deur "British Leyland" oorgeneem

IndianaJones7746

Dankie manne

Nee, dis 'n Amerikaanse trekker, Allis-Chalmers Model U, van 1937.

Die Engelse Field-Marshall trekkers word met 'n patroon ge-"start".

Hallo almal Ek dag ek laai 'n paar foto's van ons 2 werkesels. Die bloue is 'n 1990 2.4 Diesel, en die wit een is 'n 1984 2 liter(3Y) Petrol. Altwee is regtig veeldoel voertuie, want hul word aangewend in menige kapasiteit. Hoop julle geniet hulle http://i684.photobucket.com/albums/vv208/IndianaJone...

IndianaJones7746

OK, thanks Andy, I understand your explanation, but have a few more questions. That the pedestals are at different heights and the curve of the 2 packs of springs are therefore different, I completely understand. That alone would explain why the front springs differ. But I must admit, this is the fi...
