Yeah droppa....costed me 640 landed...they did not charge any duty on it....I guess they thought that it was computer parts.... Haven't installed it yet though...been busy these days...I must check out the van since the last run kinda left some weird front end noises....Will have to check it out...

I saw some lifted surf around....I parked up alongside one in south and the surf was like 4-5 inches taller than mine and he had on 35" tyres.....can't wait to do mine but I'll have to wait for a while...

rottedv, is it a 2L? If so, you getting the entire seal kit by A1 auto or Toyota. A1 auto is cheaper and it's not oem, but good quality stuff. The rear engine seal is real pressure to change so if you lifting the engine, you might as well refurbish everything one time.

2aidan, i sold those today to a guy in our club, he smiling with the deal i gave him....

but those were 31s and imma wanna get the surf taller so wen i do, i will shoot for some 33s, but they will be on full time, will sell off the 18s as well

@sniper i feel yuh lookin to come out with ah monster yuh kno.....
if yuh padna still having that prob a hard and fast fix is to unplug the add, cause if the 4wd activates while driving he cud pop an axle or damage internals......

@sniper, i know dat, actually i admire the aussies, i would love to go there on a trip or something and see some of their machines, builds and check out some of the grounds they use too...

i love my surf dred....

when i sold the Jimny and bought the surf i had little or no intention of rallying or competing, i always say dats for jimny, but then i realized her potential, and said, i gonna show ppl jimny is not the only offroad vehicle in the world.........

Nice, adian i saw a Vitara with a lift kit yesterday, looked good first time i saw one on a vitara.

Droppa you ever got that 4x4 sorted out?

Re: Toyota Surfs,Hilux and 4X4s.

nope, still gives trouble to de-activate, dat is the least of my probs, lol.....

was it a white with black graphics by chance, then dats raj, 3"BL
if was white with a snorkel, den dat rene/3stagevtec 2.5"SL and 2"BL
if was a black then dat brianr20v, all of us in Sude-B did dat lift, 2.5"SL and 2"BL
if was a yellow den dats gabriel from trailblazers on 35' mudzillas....V6 powered....

vitara is a cool ride and has some great offroad capabilities, but they have a shitarse aluminium front diff and air activated IFS 4wd clutch system, that is weak.....

Droppa, it was white...saw it heading Point Lisas.
Who did the lift? avg. cost?


I love the layout of the vitara the interior has a lot of compartments and cup holders(6)....its comfortable to drive and has good speed,easy on gas and the 4x4 is powerfull,its really silent,has a decent ride height and ground clearance its higher that most recent SUVs. Best of all the A/C works really well!Even the stock music system is impressive,i am no music person so the stock system is just right for us.
