    Goes on dyno this monday so i should get it back friday or saturday ready for the cruise to somerset dam. Looks like a engine mount has done a poop and the engine has dropped so much that the turbo manifold was hitting my steering rod lol. Other then that it just need retuned and my track bars fitted, a lsd which iam trying to source as we speak. But ive gotta look for a everyday driver hack car cos driving the lux is killing me on fuel and also killing the clutch. FFS the flywheel wear plate needs to be changed every 50,000km ahahah
  4. Iam not realy looking forward to driving through nebo and glorius with a 5puck clutch and a traffic jam/cruise that will no doubtfully involve some form of a accident. Thinking of meeting them when they come out of glorius . Plus when coming from the ipswich direction theirs plenty more long stretchy roads and twisty bits with no traffic holding me up Anyone wanna just meet at fernvale and cruise to the end meeting spot?
  5. This is a toyota cruise organized on Boostcruising. Touch wood my POS is tuned i'll be going along for this

    Too many bugs at the moment. List so far: Leaking wastegate outlet/screamer- Needs flanges to be machined flat Idles at 2000rpm- due to having a lightened flywheel now plus larger intake ports Still running in period- Not using coolant only water and also running in oil Maybe a day meet/cruise id bring it out but thursday night in brisbane with a 5puck clutch aint fun

  17. I got this hilux a little over a year ago and have slowly been building it up. Engine Specs: 3rzfe engine Forged Rods and Forged Pistons Removed Balance shafts cometic head gastet arp head studs Larger valves Bigger valve springs Titanium valave retainers Adjustable Cam gears Gt3582r External waste gate turbo Turbosmart Wastegate and Blow off valve Adaptronic ecu 3inch Exhaust Speed Freak traction Bars Ford territory Rims Custom Intercooler Bosch 044 external Pump Custom surge tank 3/8 fuel lines Magnaflow Fuel reg Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us The engine Pic is a Old one.

  18. Just found this place in my endless search of the interwebs for ever thing related to 3rzfe engines! I own a 03 hilux thats some what been modified . Its a 2wd model and some may call in a "mini truck" but thats were it all stops. Ive done a fair bit of work to the engine. Running a gt3582r garret turbo with external wastegate full 3inch exhaust from turbo back, 550cc injectors, fully forged engines with lager valves and adjustable cams, removed balance shafts, Massive port on both intake and exhaust, adpatonic ecu, and should be good for 20psi. I also have a set of track bars made up for me from a guy in the states, Have a set of sway bars coming for front and rear to stop the thing from tipping over. Before the forged internals and top end parts on stock bottom end it rand 240rkw at the wheels on 18psi............... until i bent number 3 rod and piston slapped the crank and bent that 4tho. Whoops. Dome boost spike fairy got me Just need a re tune hopefully next week Yes it was scary to drive before i done the rebuild so god only knows whats its gonna be like to drive now
