G'day Matt,
Do you get a chance to work on your patrol?
PS, thanks for your help!
Regards,
Paul
Not really lol. Hopefully once we move I can get a little settled and the old faithfuls will get a birthday.
Mate I would do it again in a blink of an eye. I know you would do the same.
G'day Matt,
I have offered the UFI TD05 16G for sale on the Patrol 4x4 site, it will be interesting to see how long it last's!

'Re: work for Matt
Hey mate , have you heard back from Matt ? cheers, Ranj."
Nice ride there dude, Always wanted one of those, never got the chance to :(
hey mate, just looking through your build and thought i would say its a nice neat build. my enigne comes from the same as yours so i was wondering what you did to the intake in order to maximise the flow. I am looking into a bigger scoop and also a thermo fan under the intercooler but as you know space is limited. what do you think is the best option
What part of the intake are you referring to mate? I am not a fan of a top mount and will be going a front mount hopefully soon so I have not and will not be doing anything to try and make the top mount work better. The factory top mounts are rubbish, if you do want it to be better then save your penny's and go for a cross country unit and their scoop.Quote:

Hey mate yeah I was refering to placing a thermo fan under the intercooler. so it takes in more air. sorry had a few beers when i wrote that haha.Quote:

But yeah with the minimal space it may be better going for a front mount instead.
It will all depend where you want to go with the 4.2 modification wise. The factory one and high flow units that are a similar size to factory do have their limitations due to their size.Quote:

Just received in the mail today Hugh MacInnes book TURBOCHARGERS!
PS, You should be working while i am reading this book. lol

RLI
G'day mate,
Whats going on, your are lagging behind! Where is the latest photo's of the GU?
PS, with-out the eye lashes and suspenders. lol
Regards,
RLI
No progress so no photos. I plan on speaking to a friend of mine ;) about some aluminium so I can start on some custom sliders doing something I haven't seen before but will be a good setup I reckon. Then it's just time and costs that will determine the rest.Quote:

Good onya Matt!
The new turbo book that i just received is a fantastic read! (TURBO Real World High-Performance Turbocharger Systems by Jay K. Miller)
PS, do you think my Patrol would benefit from eye-lashes and a pair of those leather seats that Mego has. lol
Regards,
Paul
Well considering the car with eye lashes was the only car to conquer commando on our last trip then they could be of benefit, also I think every patrol could benefit with a set of seats like MEGOMONSTERsQuote:

Pressure tested the intercooler on the weekend wont even hold 15psi, time to get busy
What have you got in mind for a cooler? ask threedogs, his is tested to 600psi or something lmao
Too small for what I want I will be running nearly 3 times as much fuel at double the pressure than 3d so need a physically larger unit. At this point a front mount is going in.

Well the old girl seems to be down on power. I have change the fuel filter and checked for the filter on the inlet of the pump to no avail, also removed the air cleaner which helped a little but only took it back to where it was previously. I will have to do a little more troubleshooting, although I am going to upgrade the pump, its not really something I can do financially at the moment.
Mine only pressure tested to 60 psi not 600 sorry to disappoint,
Which was at the higher end of all I found some only 20psi
Where is it losing pressure from joins?? or old IC
Leaking from the where the fins meet the end plate so its not as simple as welding the tanks on. I'm hoping its a combo of it being due for a service and the cooler getting progressively worse.
