turbo

Hi guys (and girls if there are any on here?), I'm trying to source a suitable (preferably stainless) 3 hole flange (yes yes... queue dirty jokes) for my 100 series turbo. I've ordered an exhaust from Oz and it's got the 4 hole flange on the dump pipe... Apparently all HDJ100's over there have...

Hey everyone. Just new to modifying my old 60s with 250000kms. I have heard conflicting advice about putting a turbo on it. What information or experience do people have that i could take on board. Beyond this what can i do to maximise my power and get it running its best before i consider a...

Hi all, Wanted to start by saying what a cracking community of like minded Cruiser-heads this is, generous with their time and insights. It's been an invaluable resource with the turbo problem that's left my D4D going nowhere, and i wanted to share my experience/learnings in case another novice...

Looking for some advice on the best way to diagnose some intermittent sluggishness I've been having. I drive my '97 HDJ80 most days and sometimes it pulls like a train and other time is struggles a bit. I believe it might be a fuel pick up issue as I've noticed when driving up hill sometimes...

Greetings to everyone, I have a VX80 which I have made modifications to hold equipment for rescue. My history of Rescues go as far back as 1993 in Malaysia of a building collapse. my most recent rescue is the 12 boys and the asst coach trapped in a cave. My specialty is in thermal imaging and...

So... getting ready to install my new EGT gauge before I start playing with boost, fuelling and such. It's a typical after-market type gauge kit that's supposed to be drilled and tapped into the manifold, pre-turbo. Was just reading up, and one article says it's "not recommended" to drill and...

Hey guys, My turbo is a bit "moist" and it appears to be leaking oil down onto the diff casing underneath. It smokes a bit whilst driving as well so I assume it is goosed. Its only done 88000 miles but I guess I best get it sorted. I was looking to get an uprated turbo whilst it is out...

I would like to fit a turbo to my 1996 HZJ75 but I have been told that the bottom end bearings will need to be replaced if I do. It is 18 years old but it only has 186k on the clock. After some serious advice. I am in Brisbane Queensland Australia so if someone else is in the area and has a go...

hi, I am considering upgrading my HZJ-75 with the 1HZ 4.2D engine with a turbo. Can you share your experience with this type of conversion? Is it worth it at all? Other questions: Is it possible/recommended on a 1HZ engine with 265.000 km or is it better to replace it? Anything I should be...
