I have a parts car. white, 85 tex, with blue interior. most of which i don't need. I should be able to get you most of what you need except the heater buttons, I think I need those for mine. off to QLD for the rest of the month and the car is at my parents place so might be a while before I can get ...

Its not actually that loud.

Can hear it in the first video taken by Jarrod.

Anyone want a 2" diff back lukey sports muffler? Has been on my L series the past 5 or so years. Just replaced it cos I'm getting old and wanted something quiter.

Free. Come and get it.

Cheers

probably, depends on the extent of the wear. may not vibrate as much with no drive to the rear diff.

just something to consider

take a good close look at the uni joints. They do wear out and become loose but can still look ok at a glance. see if you get any movement when you get under the car and twist/pull the tailshaft. I have found that worn uni joints also create vibrations on acceleration/deceleration as they are out of...

anyone got the support bracket and the fastening bolt for the spare wheel in an L series.

I have discovered I can now fit the spare back in the engine bay and I think I have chucked those bits out.

Cheers

Here is an Australian Edition of Turbo Magazine. I think its from 1987. Is an interesting read. Enjoy. http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/274/vortex0001.jpg http://img811.imageshack.us/img811/291/vortex0002.jpg http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/8406/vortex0003.jpg http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/2...

thanks Aaron,

I'm on holiday in asia at the moment and don't get back until start of may. Can you just keep the boot lining and woodern boot covers for me if it ends up going to the crusher before then.

Cheers
Sam

hey aaron,

whats the lining in the boot like? vinyl i assume. i really should get rid of mine as the carpet underlay is soaked in gearbox oil...stinks.

Relatively high kms for an MY05 but with a bumper replacement bullbar looks like good value.

Surely the bullbar by itself would be a couple of grand!

Anyone got a 3 port brake master cylinder off an L series or Liberty?

cheers
Sam

had a look at that ryco site. It seems the only sell the filters themselves, not the whole assemby. Doesn't have to be especially for a hitachi twin carb setup. I would have thought other manufacturers would have used carbies with a 60mm throat. Must not be a very common size. Apparantly i can get a...

fairly hard...

I'd rather not build/modify a new airbox at this stage but thanks for the tips. i was just wondering if anyone knew of an aftermarket airfilter that would fit on the hitachis as an off the shelf product. here are some pics of the airbox as it is atm. cheers http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/2735/18...

yep, thats what i've already got. Sorry, I should have explained my reasoning in the first post. I've used the base of the factory twin carb air cleaner and built a custom box around that with a 3" inlet at the back with a pod filter. This can be extended later to fit a snorkel but its plenty high e...

Hey guys, I'm running an EA81 twin carb setup on my L series wagon and am looking for a new air intake setup. Does anyone know if you can get aftermarket airfilters to fit the 60mm throat of the hitachi carbie? I was thinking somethink like this to fit side by side but I can't find them the right si...

actually, i just realised the other day.

the old part time dual range box out of my L series is at Matt's house which I technically still own...

whats the plans?
