Elaborate ....

either a front or back locker (probably back at this stage), light force 140's, either 2.5" or 3" exhaust, long range fuel tank to replace existing main, winch (not sure which one yet)

waiting to here back from toyota about my injector problem, once thats sorted i cant stop thinking about air to water intercooler, so that may be on the cards with more boost!

installed my outback roof console last night, pritty fancy
i have snake racing 2" shackles sitting there brand new, so if i cant sell them they will be going in! which means extended brake lines also
been speaking with ROD from VMN about his throttle controller

list never ends haha

The roof console, care to post some pictures of this man?
Also what brand, ive been tempted to install one, so i got a better sopt of UHF and other little things....

What was the price tag dude?

Jack S wrote:What was the price tag dude?

i payed $425, awsome bit of gear though

i enquired with beaudesert exhausts man and they said the best exhaust for the D4D is a 2.75inch and they do one...most other places will recomend a 3 inch because of the lower EGT's....but beasuderts rekon that is a touch to big and those shops only recomend that size because the dont have the dies to bend up 2.75 inch pipe...which does make alot of sense when you think about it and compare a 2.5 to a 3 and then think of how different a 2.75 would be....

how much do they go for? if you dont mind me asking??

a touch under 1K man ex fitting...thats was with a standard type cat...if you want a hiflo cat you are probs up for a bit more...i didnt even ask bout them...itd pay to give them a call man...sounds like a good price to me tho

Guys dont forget about the Humex exhaust that Crossport sells.
3" mandral bent, mild steel, cat and flexy joint....

yeah deffently wanna do someting with the rear, its staying as is for a while though, because i may be considering a custom tray? havnt had any issues yet, but it does hang pritty low and long! if it ends up getting tagged than thatll just make my mind up for me lol

Hey Toddie,

I just got a 3" with a straight pipe, and honestly on the highway cruising in 5th gear, you can barely tell, mine is louder in all the other gears, 5th is beautiful.

thatll just be down to the muffler...nothing to do with the ID of the pipe

thats what i like to hear! thanks mate

fella's i pulled the intercooler off on the weekend to suss out my problem with the oil in my tube running to my boost guage! there was a little bit of really watery oil sitting on the bottom?? not sure if this is ok or not??

i would of thought if my turbo had a crook seal it would be blowing blue smoke, and on its way out! but seems to fine??
can this be related to my cold rattle problem with the injectors??

opinions will be much appreciated

cheers

toddie

That new washer bottle fits there perfect, almost looks factory issue.. neat job m8
