hey dude, got some snaps ????
Keen to see, was looking at getting the guys at Indian to build me a D/C with a V8 but this sounds much cheaper ..
Mum lives in QLD so I guess'n yours has Blue Plates for the lift, V8, tyres etc if she comes with a RWC, yeah ?? If so I am keen to see pics, sounds like it will be worth my drive ...

A V8 at Indian?, knowing Kimm very well, he's much more likely to recommend V6, though it's always the customer's choice I guess.
His logic is that his supercharged V6 has been running hard for many years and doesn't crap itself at speed or idle and having driven it a few times, it's like saddling up a pet gorilla, it's ballistic and smooth ... your $$$, but I'm suprised V8 that's all. This is in a Bay right?nn[ Edited on 17-8-2005 by crewcabconnection ]

yeah but Kimm's V6 is in a dual cab with heaps of wacko cooling stuff and body work.
So has this one been cut up to make it fit ? (other than the engine bay)
Still need some pics I guess.

Chris sent photos to you can you please post. Cheers tony

I had a v6 holden 3.8l dual cab before this one. This one that i'm selling with the all alloy toyota lexus 4L v8 Shits all over it and then some, and it is better on fuel than a standard vw 2L with ten times the power.
crewcabconnection ·
Lexus...ah....now that would be a nice motor....sorry, this threads turned into Duel Cab Converts not a for sale. I appologise. Good luck with the sale, sounds like a suburb cc ... I think there are some Lexus threads in here somewhere too.
4L V8 Lexus, in my mind better than Holden. Good luck with the sale.

Actually yes I did ....
So back to the D/C
That looks awesome .. do you have any pics of the engine ?
So it does come with all the approvals for lift kit, engine conversion and stuff that I would need to transfer the rego over ?
What gearbox is it running ?
coxy007 ·
Yeah it has the mod. plate and it is runnung a 2L gearbox. If you are keen give me a call 0419642473
Thanks chris for posting the photos. I don't know what the deal is with me not being able to post them. Cheers Tony

why r u seling so soon i looked at it b4 you bought it from landsorough have you done anything to it since cause b4 you bought it i almost had it for 10 large with rego
coxy007 ·
There is no way you would have got this car from him for ten large. Your dreaming!
Put stereo system in it and and new computor Thats about it. As for the reason i'm thinking of selling it. We just found out my wife Has a another bun in the oven and she what something with aircon. I can hook up aircon. on the dualcab for about 1500.00 that still won't change her mind and a friend of mine is selling a 1994 hilux at a price just to good to pass up. But i am allowed to buy a 4 seater manx down the track.
dubbill ·
i was the guy going to put the renult box in it i know he only paid 11800 10 was the deal (done him a few "favors" in the past) anyway i told him to go ems 8860 is this the computer u used???nn[ Edited on 22-8-2005 by dubbill ]
coxy007 ·
Yeah thats the computer i used. I did a gearbox in it but there's a good reason for that when you do burn outs into third!!!!!!!!!
inthebuckethenry ·
Is there any cancer in the ol girl?
Also, what rpms does she sit on at 110 (if you travel that slow!). Im assuming with a 2L box and those tyres shed be sitting pretty low (2800)!?
Cheers

Does that rear seat you've got fitted fold up? Were these standard on later dual cabs or did you make it up?
coxy007 ·
There is a little of bit of rust in the left hand foot step. She sits on about on about2600 rpm. The fastest i have had it was 195km When my mate was doing 190km in his vl holden and i was just a bit in front of him. And that was scarey. She handles super for a old car. At 120km It feels like you are not even touching the accerator the motor is just ticking over thats why it is so good on fuel. The seat in the back does fold up and that how it was when i bought it. So I have put my sub and amp under the back seat there is shit loads of room. It is going on ebay tommorrow. I will take $11500 as is now or 12600 with roady

Come on people...dual cab with a 1UZFE...these motors have HUGE potential, Just ask Ian Swinkles 🙂
free bump for ya mate..these engines can handle a lot of power with stock internals .etc
and with a nice exhaust sound like beautiful.
this bus would move...
the 1uzfe:
250hp when stock.
260ft.lb of torque
and they rev pretty hard for a V8.

That is all true. with the after market computor and uni chip makes it even go harder.
