  1. thanks so much guys! really appreciate your help...will do some homework and will work out whats the best option. gil
  2. Hi guys and girls, would like to ask if someone ever upgraded a stock td5 turbo with some other turbo which is a variable one. mayb from a sprinter or anu other vehicle. i would like to put a variable turbo but the ones there are in the market they are far too expensive. Any help is much appreciated Gil
  3. Thanks G. Could be that was the problem, cant really tell what exactly was the problem cos before all this i changed all injectors almost a year before so injectors were new! I was told that td5's blocks cant be rebored! don't know exactly y! mayb the walls of the chambers are a bit thin! Thanks gil
  4. Hi guys, Would like to ask a question, i need to change my 10p td5 engine block since it worn out and had some problems in number one chamber and piston. Can't really figure out why this happened, the number one piston lost its perfect circle shape, it became sort of elliptical (exagerating it a bit). So diesel was escaping from the gap between the piston and chamber,unburnt, and as a result alot of white smoke was getting out as exhaust and was missing alot. no water residue was found in block and cylinder head! Now i'm looking for a good second hand block, is a 15p block good for me. the reason why I would like to know this, maybe if i find a gd 15p block it would have worked much less then a 10p one since its more modern. thanks so much for your help. Thanks Gil
  5. yes spigot bearing diametre is larger and bell housing is bigger then a tdi one. so best thing is to use ur bellhousing with the new box and arrange the input shaft issue. gil
  6. Hi guys and dolls.. i'm sure anyone fitted a through cab snorkle on a td5 engine. What do you do with the sensor on the side of the original td5 airbox? not sure if its called the ambient temp sensor or something like that. thank alot gil
  7. in theory yes, but i never saw plus 3 shocks. that would be ideal!
  8. thanks, ok i have extended brake pipes already (plus 4 inch). so i need turrets 2 inches longer then the standard ones? re relocatoers ok, thought abt that. my main issue was the turret height so as not to bottom the shocks. thanks
  9. Hi guys, I'm thinking of fitting plus 5 inch shocks to the front of my 90. i have standard height turrets and standard ranga rover coils with a 2 inch spacer under the coil. Will the new shocks fit and work well with my present setup? Thanks alot Gil
  10. Sorry for the hijack, but whats this activate thing you put in the gearbox? Gil
  11. i removed the switch and it works fine, if not better when on low gears! gil
  12. Thanks so much!!! very detailed explanation! it will help me for sure! Gil
  13. ok thanks! For who already experienced this...did you work a new bracket for the filter? did you use same pipes? any pics please? Thanks mates! gil
  14. Hi guysss.. I bought the shock absorbers mountings to fit pin-pin plus 5.5 shocks, but i have a small problem. The mounting on the driver side can't be fitted cos there is the diesel filter on the way! Has anyone encountered this problem pls?? Thanks alot Gilbert
