Welkom Kaspaas. En Thys ook Vertel bietjie van daai head gasket. Ek het al gisien oorsee die ouens praat van koper gaskets. Waar koop mens sulke gaskets? EK moet een in die hande kry vir my wa.Kaspaas wrote: 7MGE motor (with Steel Head Gasket),

Re: Kaspaas has arrived
Nothing worng with your eyes hehehehe They are clear lens replacements. They work a charm, i dont even need those spots. :DIs it the my imagination or do you have non-standard headlights?
My staal gasket is ingevoer van oorsee, ek weet net dis bestel, en het 2 weke geneem om hier te kom, hy is laasweek ingesit. Verder is die radiator nog 'n BAIE teer puntjie, want hy hang baie laag onder uit.Waar koop mens sulke gaskets?
Ek het vir Kaspaas so gekoop, en toe ek die voorste bumper en valance afhaal om by bullbar te fit, toe sluk ek amper my shifting spanner in. Die volgende mod wat gedoen moet word is 'n BMW 328 radiator en viscous fan conversion. En ek wil sommer 'n oil-cooler ook fit, enigiets om daai baby af te koel. Verder is die enjin blykbaar ge-gasflow en hy het 'n branch exhaust op met baie min bokse in die pyp. Vandat ek vir Kaspaas 5/6 maande gelede gekry het het hy baie tyd in die shop gespandeer om van al die pirate gaskets en olieseels en clutch ontslae te raak. Hopelik is hy nou op sy kop, tysd sal leer, ek moet hom weer 'n slag in die duine indruk en hom hoenner.....

Re: Kaspaas has arrived
Ek het huidiglik 'n Isuzu 280DT radiator in en dit lyk my die Toy like nie van Isoez spares nie. Ek dink om ook 'n BMW740i Radiator te kry net soos Zantus hier op sy Lexus conversion het. Die oilcooler sal maklik wees soos ek kan aflei is daar 'n plek waar die 7MGTE se olie pyp uitgaan na die turbo wat gebruik kan word om olie te voer na die oilcooler net onder die olie filter
Re: Kaspaas has arrived
Maggies, maar Kaspaas is mooi...
Bennie, ek dink die staal gaskets is van "Cometic", dit is die een wat ek nou vir my wa gekoop het, maar hulle is duur.
Ek sal voorstel dat jy vir Danie van Supratech bel (0839909400), miskien kan hy vir jou die regte gasket teen die regte prys kry. Hy het vir my 'n paar opsies genoem toe ons gepraat het van die head gaskets.

It does not allow you to post images to display directly in the forum either. Rather use Photo Bucket as it is the easiest to use.

Re: Kaspaas has arrived
Ek het uitgevind van die staal gasket.. dis blykbaar 'n Reinz gasket, nie 'n ten volle staal gasket nie, maar met staal inserts rondom die ports. O ja en voorskootlik duur.
Die ligte het ek by Moag's in Elsiesrivier gekoop. Mens kry 2 soorte ligte, een met glas lense en een met plestiek lense. Ek het die glas lense, maar hulle is nogals skaars. Ek dink nie die plestiek lense sal lank clear bly as mens baie in die bos rondry daarmee nie. Dit sal dof raak.
Kaspaas loop maar min in die Brackenfell in, net naweke en so. Groet maar as jy my raaksien ek groet graag terug.. :)

Re: Kaspaas has arrived
Sien wat ek bedoel van die radiator? Dit is positively dangerous!
O ja en die olielek op die vloer was van 'n pirate rear main oil seal. Die gearbox moes uitkom om dit te vervang. En toe 'n maand later WEER om die pirate clutch te vervang wat koebaai gewaai het... Seker maar omdat dit vol olie geraak het?

Hi Kaspaas. Soos ek al na die manne gesluister het is een van die belangrikste dinge met die 7MG conversion die radiator. So ek sal voorstel jy vervang hom baie gou. Jy praat ook van oil cooler. Ek het gesien in een van die ander posts praat die manne van CHE wat daarmee kan help. Hulle is ook innie Kaap. http://www.che.co.za/che.htm

Re: Kaspaas has arrived
Piet, ek is vuur en vlam om daai radiator te vervang met 'n BMW 328 ene, voordat ek hierdie een in sy mr ry. :) Ek moet sê hierdie radiator verkoel goed, ek het nog nie met oorverhitting gesukkel nie.Soos ek al na die manne gesluister het is een van die belangrikste dinge met die 7MG conversion die radiator.
Die oil-cooler is maklik sal ek sommer self insit. Bennie, jy het gevra oor die engine management system.... Ek is in die gelukkige posisie dat Kaspaas nog die oorspronklike, van sy ma af, genuine Toyota article het. Ek wil nie neuk met go-tech en al daai goed nie, ek het al te veel horror stories gehoor.

Re: Kaspaas has arrived
toemaar Niel, ek sit stil in die hoekie, ek makie geraas nie..
We went to Atlantis yesterday. It was very nice and I will post a video-clip or 2 soon. Will advise when they are up. Is was Kaspaas's first time in the dunes and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. We crested the Big Dune from a standing start with a 5m run-up on his first try. Then we started playing, closer and closer until we couldn't make it over the top.
My mate has a 1994 Hilux DC (similar spec to Kaspaas) and it almost always ends up in a contest between Kaspaas and his bakkie. This time Kaspaas won, convincingly.
We also took a classic video-clip of a RAV4 kicking a TD5 Landie's bee-hind on the big dune. I will also upload that. All in all we had a very pleasant day. :)

Re: Kaspaas has arrived
That was really funny, because the guy with the Landy tried from all angles and with long and short run-ups, but eventually resorted to storming the dune from just this side of Malmesbury... He made it. We all cheered, and then all of a sudden this RAV4 appears and quite casually with minimal run-up just hopped up and over the top.. hehehehehe :)

Re: Kaspaas has arrived
Here is that clip of the RAV4 and the Land Rover. As I said before, the guy in the Land Rover tried quite a few times before he made it, the the RAV4 just upstaged him. :D
I also am busy uploading some more video-clips. There are a few already here http://s235.photobucket.com/albums/ee26 ... tis_18_11/ that you can check out. More to come. Bandwidth is a pain in the backside hehehe :D

Re: Kaspaas has arrived
I also like your avatar, very smart indeed. Tell me why have you blanked out your number plates. Are the traffic cops looking for you :?
Thys, I have a 91 model very similar to yours. Where did you get the running boards? I have to use a portable step to get my old bat into the lux?

Numberplates... ahem.. it's an old habit I guess, but a little paranoid, because the numberplate is open for all to see when you are driving on the road anyway. Sometimes I blank it out sometimes not.
Running Boards: They are standard Raider kit. I bought Kaspaas with them fitted.

Re: Kaspaas has arrived
Ron there are plenty guys who remove these running boards for whatever reason so why dont you put a post in the wanted section Im sure someone will have some lying aroundIrishman wrote:I also like your avatar, very smart indeed.

Ron.
Mine might even be up for grabs at some stage cause I have another plan for something were mine are
Thys can you post some pics and give some details of how your bull bar has been modified
Im interested in doing something similar myself.
You can mail me if you like if you dont wanna post the pics here, you should still have my email address
Re: Kaspaas has arrived
Personally, I think the running boards rather spoil Kaspaas
I don't see the practicality of Std Raider Running Boards, they are disproportionally dimensioned and do a very good job of chaffing your legs which is not pleasant when mud and dirt is involved - my opinion only hey
.....but probably why many guys take them off.... a bit like a Tata's hub caps)
I've seen some awesome awesome rock crawler bars, some with two stages; that's if you need the step-up like Thys
I fell IN LOVE with Kaspaas (not Thys, we have a lurv/hate relationship; I lurv him and he.....) when I saw him in action at Tierkloof in January this year (see photo)
Since then he lost his lustre when I saw his butt kicked at Atlantis by John ( a novice 4x4'er) in a bog std road tyre equipped Prado, Kaspaas was found sadly lacking that day
I'll give kaspaas:
5/10 for Presentation and 7/10 for Technical Merit - This Olympic Fever is getting to me hey
Sorry Thys, (nothing personal)- but when you blow your own trumpet - the Pipers prick up their ears

Never mind, great thing about the Lux is that...
You NEVER HAVE TO STOP building it
Who knows Martin might get bored of his LC springs and "move up" to IFS
Looking forward to see Kaspaas' crowd-pleasing antics again
If only from afar, given the vehicle I'm coming in - hope I can find a brown paper bag big enough to fit over my head :roll:

A bit of a nip and tuck here and there and new mounts and it is all done... I still need to have mine powdercoated, but it just doesnt seem to happen...
