Got a New car today - 92 Hilux Surf SSX-R 2.4TD Sun, 09 January 2005 07:11 Go to next message
We put down a deposit on one of these today.

Pretty nice things they are! Interior is similar to a seca sx.. Power windows and to my suprise the rear window of the car can be controlled to wind all the way down!

As for performance.. well its Diesel Laughing

But might find a snorkel/cai maybe exhaust and high flow the turbo later.. hmm also heard of 1J engines going in nicely too? Very Happy

Get to pick it up wednesday as it needs compliancing rego and all. got it for 15k at a dealer drive away

So who has got one of these here?

Cool it now means that your going to have to sign up to Outer Limits 4WD.

About the only real downside to the Surf is an overheating problem. They tend to run hot.

cheers for those links!

hmmmm really?
would a better intercooler help? (if it has one)

so i always have to keep an eye out for the coolant?

also noticed.. the oil pressure gauge seems to be on the low side of things. is this normal?

No worries

A mate of mine has one.

I'm not to sure about an intercooler. With the overheating its not so much keeping an eye on the coolant level its more of keeping an eye on the gauge. Around town she's fine but get it on the highway and push it it can be a different story.
Low oil pressure? It shouldn't have low oil pressure. See what happens with changing the oil. The oil could be on the used and old side either that or the old owner used oil ment for a petrol motor. It does happen No No No
