Ok, so today I had a good long drive in a vehicle with a Recaro Orthopaed driver's seat. Not the current model with internal cooling fan, but the last model.
Holy Crap - how good are these...

Hey there buddy. Ive got a 07 CRD with a Cross country intercooler. Cant really compare it to a std intercooler because it was fitted when I bought the truck, but the guy I bought it from did say...
Cross country do a very good unit mate. Hopefully someone with first-hand experience will pop in shortly.
Yeah my question was aimed at the engine bay temp reduction.
If the intercooler does a good job then your engine bay temp should also come down. If the cooler can keep your egt below 500 then your...
Why do you want to reduce temps?
Believe it or not your vehicle is designed to make a low pressure area towards the rear of the engine and down and out. This inbuilt design allows more air to be...
G'day Coogs,
I loved the idea of raising the back end of the bonnet to vastly increase air flow over the whole engine. Alternatively a second (reversed) air scoop over the turbo area to suck out the...
They're not Recaro seats but I got my original seats re-bolstered and reupholstered in leather, done by Alphaline.
Well yesterday I finally replaced the leaking factory unit with a Diesel Smart exchange unit. I also installed a catch can in the process and cleaned the MAF so the complete air intake gets a breath...
Hi Coogs,
I just had the Cooper ST Maxx 285/70R17 tyres put on my 2012 GU today, and they feel great on the road and do fill out the wheel arches nicely giving the car that nice beefy look with...
x2 285's or 33's basically the same size probably the most used and best size really for a patrol.
Go the 285s mate, I presume you have a GU....... you've got plenty of space in those wheel arches to take larger rubber plus it will give you a bit more diff clearance
threedogs, I think you have a problem with your gauge mate, I would check that as it doesn't sound right.
The CRD engines have a much more advanced engine control system so NADS are not...
Yes Di is direct and you know CR, from what I've been reading fitting the NADS is very worth while for both, having just fitted one myself. My EGTs are now 200 deg C ALL THE TIME, where as before...
Well that's a good that you are going to block the EGR, this will stop the carbon build up inside the Inlet manifold, step 1
The PCV allows oil vapour to mix with and cause the carbon to stick to...
If you set up Dawes and needle it will only ever spike to around 18psi, but mainly max around 15/16 psi so I would get the one going to 30psi for a bit of headroom so to speak, this would also alert...
