Performance mods D40 Navara

[TigerST]

While I already have the picture up of my dash I would like to point out that I sprayed the interior the 2 tone effect with silver 2pac paint. I did this myself so not sure how much a panel beater would spray them for you.. It cost me about $300 in paint (plastic primer/silver paint/clear coat+hardner) but i also did my sidesteps as well..

as you can see in this pic.. Took me about 4 hours all up to remove everything and spray..

Very Nice

Its not hard mate just take your time.. what could be easier for you is to buy a maf connector and use the silicon hoses to hook it up if your not keen enough to chop your filter box off..

Good news members, after cleaning the mafs sensor and boost pressure sensor also checking for leaks it ended up being a little of everything.. the ebay turbo is still good nothing wrong with it boost is back to steady 20 - 22psi.. after replacing 1 silicon hose, boost solinoide and a filer clean im wrapt with how its running right now.. this week I also swapped out my old stock 6 year suspension with the 550 factory with ironman leaf load springs in the rear its a very nice ride now but the budget is too tight for a while until I save up for rhe lift kit this cost me $50 for the lot and 3.5 hours to fit it myself.. so hope you guys have a great weekend too!

Secondly! I noticed that I was getting quite abit of black oil in my intercooler piping (hotside) and went for a catch can.. I purchased 15mm x 1meter SS braided hose and 1 catch can (from ebay) this all costed me about $100 all up..
Here are 2 pictures of it installed and you can clearly see where to tap into for the catch can..

This took me about 1 and 1/2 hours to install not alot of room in the engine bay up top but I managed to bolt it to the fuse box on the side.. I had to pull out the guts of it to get the bolt in and put it all back togeather...

how did you run the vacuum hose that comes from the air intake pipe? (post filter)

It was a little black t-type peice off the stock filter and I just drilled a hole in the aluminum pipe and jammed it in there.. its sitting just under the bend

 

[Titanium_Tim]

was thinking of going that way but just wanted to check first. and the alloy piping, just a 3" 90 deg bend?

just noticed your grill. did you cut to shape and somehow fix the mesh to the honeycomb. you can buy mesh grills on evilbay, but they look crap. yours on the other hand looks good

cheers

Cheers mate, I got it from ebay about 5 years ago from usa but havent found any like it in the meantime.. yeh it comes with wires to attach it but I used them to hold the epoxy until it went off then took them out but yoy couldn't norice them unless you really looked at it close up.. im sure you can make something up and get it plasma cut to suit..
