  1. loads of photos of the tractor on facebook, Nick Anderson has it!
  2. Nothing, just plug new ECU in, Sync ECU to the BCU and it will be fine. The ONLY thing you need to swap is the ECU.
  3. its a mule as confirmed by somebody working at LR..
  4. Can we ask exactly what you're ordering? One of my friends is coming home for Christmas from Bentonville, Arkansas
  5. my friend had a SD33 in his range rover classic. it was absolutely awful. nissan 2.7 is an absolutely fantastic engine however!!
  6. Jose Amorim at Performance Inside / TD5inside I was under the impression that TDV8's are down tuned so that they do not smash the gearbox.
  7. The competition starts tomorrow (saturday) Ill be going up on Sunday hopefully!
  8. You may find it easier to reuse the NON edc injector pump on the new engine. "We are looking to merge the two ECU´s together" There is only one ECU for the EDC engine - the on edc engine has no ECU
  9. I see you share the same username as the ebay account... so surely you already know if its a good vehicle or not, you tell us! also... WTF are those side step/tree sliders??!?!
  10. again, what would require running an lt230 in reverse?
  11. D2 axles are fantastically easy to work on. Not the strongest, but they're cheap and plentiful.
  12. I always have discovery transfer boxes for sale for £50. Axles are £120 a pair off a 300tdi (24 spline) The only bit i see as worth keeping is the head off the 200tdi. but then if your engine did blow up id source a cheap 300tdi (~£250) and a defender R380 box. £500 is steep for a scrap discovery too, i pick them up regularly from £0 to £350
  13. Decent diagnostics should be able to operate the EGR valve actuator. Id be looking suspiciously at the digital throttle control.
  14. Not ignoring basic thermal dynamics at all, but in real world situations a bigger diameter exhaust 99% decreases turbo spool up times and EGT's. We are talking about a 300tdi, it isnt a finely tuned race engine - by a very very long way. What do you want out of your engine? more throttle response from idle, more top end or what? Air filter postion and intake length make a HUGE difference and are easily modified.

  16. no need to remove anything from the transfer box
  17. Nige - Hybrid from hell on these forums is the man for the job! CLICK LINKY TO HIS WEBSITE
  18. I would presume you mean EGR valve. two in 12k is very excessive. You can have the EGR system turned off via a remap. (Off and still does the self clean cycle - the chugga chugga noise when you turn the engine off) Removing DPF in the exhaust is an MOT fail, however the DPF has a handy heat shield around it, so if you should decide to have the DPF removed, the MOT man can't actually see it because its hidden underneath the shield. The ford fuel system IMHO is very very poor, they respond very well to a new fuel filter, but a serious pain in the backside to bleed the system up again.
  19. This is why its so handy living a few miles from Paddocks - if ever theres a problem I just throw the parts over the counter and quite literally have the correct parts thrown back at me!
  20. You'll be fine in a UK climate. In fact Id say you'd be fine in most climates!
