i am looking at buying a second hand 100 series standard with the ever trusty 1HZ , can any of you toyota fans tell me any good or bad things about them apart from being a BIG ASS RIG , and how good r the LSDs in them some people have told me they give up the ghost pretty quick also looking at a after market turbo like a DTS kit

Make sure you buy one with a live front axle....

Also do a really good search for rust and avoid a "cheaper ex mines" rig if you can.
Engines are tough but service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history, service history.

Really important that it got clean oil at 5000km intervals, as well as air filters etc... WIth a snail they should go just great!!! Happy motoring mate... Smile
