    Underbody protection

    I checked out the duty to bring them in to Zimbabwe, it's 40% of the parts and shipping combined.. It makes it quite pricey. I'm looking at border runner options.

    Underbody protection

    You're suggestion got me thinking, I've managed to find a supplier in South Africa and they'll do 6mm alloy kit for the sump and separate gearbox protection for R12275.00 just a little over £500 and I'll try to get a runner to collect so might be able to skip the duty.. Fingers crossed. Land...

    Underbody protection

    Do you have the web address? I'll look into it. I'm fairly sure the ridiculous Zimbabwe duty will rule it out though..

    Underbody protection

    It's a bit of a long shot, but does anyone know where I can get some CAD drawings of underbody protection plates for my 100 series? My Cruiser lives in Zimbabwe and it's pretty much impossible to buy anything like that off the shelf so I was thinking of having some made up.

    New winch rope recommendations

    Hi All, I've decided that it's probably high time I replaced the 25yr old steel cable on my OEM winch with a synthetic rope. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a decent rope and advise what length and diameter would be the best fit. Not looking to spend a crazy amount of money, the...

    Who's using what air-down tool for their tyres ?

    Chinesium.. hahaha. I know exactly what you mean but I have to say I've used mine on a number of occasions now and they work just fine and to be honest even if they fall apart next time I use then and I have to get another set I'm still quids in by a long shot..

    a lot of warning lights

    I had a similar issue with my 100 series, it turned out to be the wire running along the inner wing from the back of the alternator. The previous owner had snapped a fan belt and it had whipped the wire, it had been patched up and taped but water had got in and corroded the wire so it was only...

    Water in the steering rack

    So I've just had the seals done on my 100 series steering rack as it was leaking into the n/s boot. When we drained the system the oil was quite emulsified, I assume water has managed to get in somehow.. this had caused some really bad pitting on the shaft which has had to be replaced with a...

    Should I upgrade injector nozzles - 1HDFT

    I would email Ryan at Gturbo or give him a call, he'll keep you right. Make sure and get a plumbing kit as well if you go for it.

    Should I upgrade injector nozzles - 1HDFT

    I'm running mine at15psi, it's good for about 28psi but mine is a manual transmission so I'm going to wait till I've got a new clutch waiting to go in before I crank it up anymore.. just in case it slips. The original CT26 was doing about 7psi. The difference is very noticeable.. :)

    ACSD delete 1 HDT.

    Great thread, It's got me thinking, my 100 series with a 1hdt has ACSD fitted and I'm in Harare Zimbabwe so I can't see any down side to removing it. Does anyone know where I might be able to get a delete kit from preferably in the UK. I've had enough of importing from OZ for a little while...

    G Turbo group buy

    Well it's taken a lot longer than I thought to fit my GTurbo, not helped by the guys in Oz sending me the wrong plumbing kit.. I had to have a pipe couriered from South Africa to Zimbabwe at a cost of nearly $100.. the joys of Africa.. Anyway I have to say that the new turbo is fantastic, my...

    1HDT Uprated Clutch recommendations

    So UniClutch don't do a clutch for a 100 series with a 1HDT.. I wonder if I'm going to have trouble finding a clutch.. Apparently completely different to either the standard 1 HD-FTE or the 80 series with the 1HDT.

    I'm having my shinny new G Turbo Grunter fitted today and was wondering if anyone would be interested in buying the old one. There's nothing wrong with it, I'm only upgrading for fun. The turbo is off a 100 series 1hdt with 252,000 km it's had 2 owners from new and came to me in 2017 with a...

    Hi All I am just about to fit a shinny new GTurbo Grunter to my 100 series 1HDT and I'm thinking it's only a matter of time (possibly not very long) before I will need to get the clutch uprated to cope with the extra torque. Can anyone recommend a good uprated clutch? Preferably something I...

    Hi David, I don't think it will fit. And it's in Zimbabwe. I'm sure if you put something up on the forum someone might be able to help. If not you could wait till you get the car to Zim and get it done there. Turbo Solutions in Harare have been highly recommended, Mano the owner used to work...

    turbo charger replacement

    I wouldn't be risking an Ebay turbo on my Cruiser. Mine is an Africa spec so has the 1hdt engine, it's low milage for a 1998 with 240,000km and the turbo seems fine but I'm upgrading to a GTurbo and very much looking forward to seeing the results.

    My guess would be, remove the exhaust manifold then take the turbo off with in on the bench.

    Have you already got an intercooler? If not fitting one will help. It'll also help keep the exhaust gas temps a bit lower if you do add more fuel
