Hello all

[john-s]

A little introduction

My name is John van Schaijk, and i live in Holland.
Just bought my third Hilux and i still have them all.

My first Hilux is a metalic grey 1989 SR5 2L 33" BFG extra cab.
The second Hilux is a metalic red 1995 3L V6 new imported from USA also extra cab. (31" BFG
The third Hilux is a black 2007 D4D 2.5 extra cab, 88Kw & chiped with german "racing chip"

The tyres are stock tyres and I wouldt like to replace these with 32" KM2 BFG Muds .... but these don't fit.... :-{)

Best guess for tyres that will fit is 245/70-17 BFG Mud KM2 (total diameter 30.5") on 8" wide rims with ET20

Now my person my main job is electronic engineer at Bosch (automatic CVT transmission controlls and measurement)
Together with my girlfrend we have a business in dune buggy's (see www.funbuggy.nl) and also have a online shop for buggy parts (see www.simparts.nl). We import these buggy's together with my brother.

During my dirt bike (enduro) hobby I was very interested in Dakar racing so I joined a friend as navigator to a rally in Morroko (Munchen-Marrakesh). We finisched first in our class (3 liter petrol) and sixth over all of 130 compeating car's.
This we did in a Nissan 3 liter V6 twin turbo, 100Km after the finish the engine broke and my first Toyota has towed this car from Marrakesh to Spain (680 Km).
After this we went to several events Oekraine and Morroko again.

My new interrest is electric buggy's, and 1100cc Dazon buggy as replacement of a dirt bike.

That's all for now....

Have you ever been to Australia?

Get some photos up of your cars in the Shed Section
