Well done Skillo, what a milestone. Great content with a good pace throughout the conversion. Would be interesting to watch a video on a cost breakdown of the total conversion for the DIY at home in their shed like you? Good job, an interesting watch.
Mate, one of your vids popped up on my feed this arvo and I have now watched the whole build series. I also own a 200 but am an 80 fan at heart. What an achievement mate, hearing the big 1vd fire up was bloody awesome and got me excited.
If you want the factroy steel heater hose line, i have one sitting on the shelf at work, I’m coming up to see Hagen on Friday…… it’s just gathering dust ….. ps please dont fit a catch can… 100% not necessary
Congrats, enjoying the build it’s been massive. Used to have an 80 but now GU so not sure how I stumbled into your channel but I love home conversions. Looking forward to the test runs 👍🏽
We still get 200kw and 800 nm on factory stuff with a G350, the gsl pipe is not great, to much weight on compressor housing and only flows a bit more than factory
All good…don’t really have the room at the front without cutting up the grill but more, it is a hell of a lot more piping for a single turbo that feeds to two throttle bodies. Unlike a HDT that feeds one side and turbo in the other, there would be pipes going everywhere to make a front mount work. I’m sure it’s been done, but it wasn’t for me especially considering the timeframe. Plus, the bonnet scoop looks better anyway 😂😂
Nah there was a black/red and a black/white. The black/red was the one that went to the starter on the 1HZ so assumed it would be it. But it must have been the output from the old start relay I removed. So the black/white was correct as that came from the key. 🤦♂️. Got there in the end 😎
Incredible mate, well done! Big job with a lot of hiccups but I could see you socking it all up in the moment when it started 😄👌🏽
congratulations, its a lot of hard work, stress, money ect. great job.
Thanks mate. Appreciate the message
Wow congratulation...well done
Well done, mate. I also got super excited watching it fire up, and you're your reaction. Great effort well deserved
Thanks mate. Yeah I was pretty excited 😂😂
Got a G320 turbo on my 79. OEM intake pipe and airbox are fine. OEM Snorkel is restrictive though

Thanks mate and welcome to the channel! Great to have you on the journey.
So awesome buddy.❤
Love the work, keen to see it driving!
Thanks mate 😎
Great effort and for muffler wait till it’s under load to see how loud it is
Need it for engineering anyway but sounds good

Thanks mate and thanks for the support! Plenty more to come 💪🏼
Yay its running 🎉🎉
Nice job mate, she sounds good!
Cheers mate. Beyond stoked!
Very nice mate congratulations well done 👌👌👌I found with my 200 series I put 2 x themo fans on the cooler and it worked great something to think about
Yeah Hagen has been on me about it too 😉😂
@@skillosshed it makes a big difference with temperature
Love it💪🏻💪🏻💯💯
Loving the progress Skillo.
It's a shame the ecu tune can't delete the actuation of the egr valve
Thanks mate. Well it can, and I mulled over doing the delete, but decided to do the right thing for engineering 😂
I'm guessing they will turn it off when they do a remap like every one does

Good to know mate! Thank you
Another solid video, Arron. We released a portable air pump for off-road use. Can we invite you to do a review? We have emailed for an inquiry.
Why didn't you put a front mount intercooler on it?
Apologise in advance if its been mentioned somewhere already.

Was it an negative trigger for the start

@@skillosshedeither way you have done an awesome job
