Excellent video, thanks for the info. I’ve been considering the Torqit and will go down this track.
Looking forward to seeing Toyota response. Good luck with those buggers
Yeah cheers mate. We will see what they reckon!
Good stuff, I installed the GSL diff actuator protector after seeing your earlier vid, had no idea before that. Dont worry too much about the dpf, the previous hilux/prado dpf issues seemed to be with city cars not getting a good run, I had one I just sold a 2016 2.8 with 175,000kms and original dpf, plenty of country mileage per year probably helped, but Toyota did extend all dpfs to a 10 year warranty. Im heading for the Tanami in July be good run for my new 78. cheers
The guards are a good thing mate! My two previous hilux's never had dpf dramas either, and my brother has a hilux with no dramas. Congrats on the 78!
Great video. Good idea using the original hose clamps👍
Cheers mate, yeah why not hey
Great video mate. Sounds really good 👍 I have a torqit twin 3.5 inch sitting in my garage waiting for my 79 to arrive. I bought it about a year ago at the 4wd show in Sydney for $2180 and now they sell for $3’000 can’t wait to put it on. Look forward to future vids mate cheers 🤙🏻
Cheers, you got a good deal there mate! Gotta jump on good prices when you can. Hopefully your not waiting to much longer for the rig!
Thanks for sharing, love the detail you go into explaining the fitting unlike most who just show the after footage. Can you give an update on the door seals, noise reduction etc. Its pretty disappointing they are short of matching up the rest of the trim.
No worries mate, yep I noticed that to when watching vids, I wanted to be fairly detailed with this. Vid coming soon on that stuff 😉
You could tell you were a little hesitant cutting the fuel lines in the beginning, and I don't blame you. 😁It does sound better than stock, and you can even hear a little bit of the blow off valve whistle. Kudos to you for doing the right thing and keeping it legal. Full respect. ✊ Good luck with your warranty claim.
Yeah it's a bit strange having to chop the fuel lines, will see what happens with Toyota 😬, thanks mate.
It's got a nice note to it mate I love the V8 diesel sound 👍
Cheers mate, yeah she sounds pretty decent for still having a dpf!
That's one of the first things I had changed on my 79. It was done by an exhaust specialist the mod being a 3inch dpf back exhaust with a 4 inch resonater.
Was pleased with the sound, but a slight improvement in horsepower. Wish I'd had 4 inch all the way through, but the legalitys of it just wasn't worth it. Wish I'd had the rear axle width correction done instead of the Safari Armax package added.
Beauty mate, Is it illegal to run a straight through 4 inch? is the safari armax any good?
Cheers for great , honest videos legend , appreciate them 👍🏼
No worries at all mate, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, much appreciated 👍
@@OutbackOffroadNT pleasure mate , look forward to more in the future .. just got myself another cruiser too just before they pulled the pin on the v8s .. we will have to hang on to our v8s till we’re old and wrinkly .. 👍🏼
Oh that's awesome! Good onya mate, yeah exactly I'll drive the wheels off mine I reckon.
@@OutbackOffroadNT yeah bud drive um like we stole um but also pamper them way too much 👍🏼
I agree with you mate for the price of that exhaust you'd expect perfection. still looks and sounds great none the less
Yeah definitely mate, overall I am happy with it.
It sounds awesome ❤
Bloody oath!
Hi mate , good vid thx
I put a PPD dpf back exhaust on 2 years ago fortunately no fuel line relocation. It’s still going strong back don’t do the constant dirt u do
6 months ago I purchased the torqit module map . It’s sent to you and it does a factory read then u send data back thru a porthole along with your vehicles info exhaust tyres etc and they send you 3 tunes
On the mind tune my clutch lasted 2/3 months started slipping on hills
So went NPC 1300 . Love it now . I wouldn’t bother with Toyota. My brake rotors warped at 10k and they were an absolute nightmare to deal with. They did a shit fix and I’ve had them fixed finally elsewhere
Btw torqit module map lets you revert back to factory settings within minutes which is why I went with it but if anything goes wrong I reckon Toyota will not be helpful anyway
Cheers mate you live in a beautiful part of Aus
That's interesting mate, and my rotors are warped to I reckon. if I was after more power, it would have to be a proper dyno tune well within safe parameters. The dealerships can be bloody hard to deal with, you've really gotta have a spine and stand up to them I've found. sure is beautiful here, cheers 🍻
Sounds great man.
Cheers mate
Sounds sweet 👌
😁
Sounds beautiful idling, and there is no way even from a distance driving, that the ute could be mistaken for anything but a V8. Definitely a head turner.
Yeah I agree, nicer then I thought really.
sounds so good..!!!
😁👌
How funny. I drive an 08 with straight through, have for 7 years. And to me this sounds great. The thong slap is over rated. I’d happily upgrade to a dpf model and settle for this. Love the vids mate.
Well there ya go, yeah straight piped can be bloody loud hey! I am enjoying the smooth rumble tbh, thankyou 👍
Fitted HD clutch & 3.5" Torquit system over 4 years ago when vehicle was only months old. very happy with both products - nil problems with either. Won't say whether I removed the shit DPF or not!!!
Beautiful mate! The old dpf thing 🤫🫣😂
Keep the metal pipe from your fuel line as well... they can come in handy as well if you have problems down the track.
I keep most stuff like that, always ends up used somewhere, it's good having a little supply of random bits
Gday, I seen an Isuzu delivery truck tip off a load of wooodchips and done a burnoff at the time, the driver thought he couldn’t move from where it was and the chips did catch alight, he shit himself pretty bad, the ute certainly sounds nice mate, cheers
Wowie, that's bloody wild. So strange to think these things are under our vehicles 😬
awesome episode, with clutches it in my opinion is a luck of the draw if you get a good one from factory, I had a 100 series turbo manual which needed a new clutch at 70000 kms and toyota said i tow a boat and would not cover the claim with my work 79 done 275000 with a mild chip and a upgraded exhaust has the original clutch, good luck with toyota👍
Yeah that's very interesting mate, I honestly reckon I'll just bite the bullet and throw a HD clutch in
@@OutbackOffroadNT upgrade to a 1200 nm clutch the factory one is 350 nm
Oh wow really? I've been trying to find out that info, I'm looking at a Terrain Tamer HD clutch...
@@OutbackOffroadNT i think they do a 1200 nm and a 1600 nm clutch and a billet flywheel
24:04 , 24:21 nice exhaust notes 👍
👌
I been watching your vids mate good work to 😊.. as i got the same rig but dual cab and saw this video and got the same exhaust 3.5 torqit 2024 because urs sounds sweet but honestly doesnt sound anything like this ! Like hollow no throat . Mine Stock standard truck like yours to . Wtf im stumped ,but im not the only one to say this either i see . ...
Hey mate thanks, hmm that's strange. Mine isn't very loud at all in the cab. Maybe get a mate to film you driving past you with their phone and see what you reckon, from the outside mine is pretty mint. I've just recorded a new ep 4wding and it sounds good in low 4.
I have a 2021 78 and got a Torqit exhaust from a shop fitted.Fuel lines remained the same but I had the regrid my factory side steps as when on a lean it vibrated noticeably.Warenty's are great.......... until you need them.😞
Yeah I reckon its just the updated single cab 79 for the fuel lines, interesting about the aide step though. Yep, warranties can be a funny thing.
Good video mate, I couldn't hear the clutch noise you made reference to? Was the clutch slipping or was it difficult to shift gears etc?
Slipping a little, also bearing was on the way out, I forget which.
I can't judge the sound until you take me for a ride
Hey bro, for sure we will catch up soon!
Just for your info. My 2022 LC just had a new clutch kit replaced. No towing, no towbar fitted. just a work truck
They dropped the entire gear box. Warranty covered it. Low km. My lc is stock at the moment. Just boxes on the back atm
Farout mate that's bloody wild hey, good they fixed it under warranty though.
Cheers for exhaust video. Agree DPF sux.
Well the big plus is , she will breath a lot better regardless of the sound, but she does sound grouse..
Yeah definitely mate, snorkel and airbox soon to!
Yes should make a diff too, nice clean air
Nice vid mate.. toss the factory clutch n go a npc 1300 nm I have a 1600nm in mine feels like the factory clutch.
You know much about the Terrain Tamer HD clutch, I'm looking at that... I was thinking about the NPC. 1600nm 💪🤯
@@OutbackOffroadNT yeh they are okay mate but I got mine tuned at just autos in Nambour had the safari Armax package ECU clutch ect.
I went from 400 nm with the Armax to 800 nm at the wheels I pull a big reef boat and didn’t want it to slip and have to pull the gearbox back out
They said the 1300 nm npc would have handled that torque.
Damn that's bloody awesome, how's it go with 800nm? Must be awesome to drive!
@@OutbackOffroadNT like a v8 commodore lol
Haha, that's fvcken awesome
At Easter I was in a road side Police check the usual stuff drivers License, Drink and drug testing and something new a tailpipe check of newer diesels to see if the DPF was operational apparently a $2000 fine if removed by owner and $10K for a shop if they did the work
That's interesting hey, wouldn't take much for them to sting ya I reckon!
@@OutbackOffroadNT I made a joke to the one wearing the white glove that I hope that's not for me 😜
🤣
Those guy spent over 50k extra modifying the car, 2k fine is nothing to them.
@@szejim1757 The problem is the Police can put the vehicle off the road till all faults are rectified a friend off mine was picked up for oversized wheels a easy fix but the bull bar was found to be non compliant as was the suspension mods it got very expensive
So Aussie ❤
🇦🇺 👌
Good job mate. Just wondering if the welds on the new pipe are passivated?
What’s the stainless steel mate. 304L or 316? Do you know?
Unsure if passivated, stainless is 304
I reckon it would be worth getting each welds pickled mate.
There's definitely reassurance with the 10 yr warranty, but yes I wonder if they really go through the right process when fabricating these exhaust
Ive got the same vehicle, single cab, haven't upgraded exhaust yet, can't see why Torquit couldn't have fabricated that the same as the OEM exhaust,I wonder if gsl has the same exhaust design
Sounds good 👍
Yep, it's silly imo. Could be a reason, but I reckon it should've followed the same route as stock
The 3inch Torqit i have on my troopy doesn't sound half as good as this🤔
Hey @torqit what's the go? Can you give me a larger resonator or something?
That's interesting mate, this is straight through from the back of the dpf, no resonator or mufflers. Also, the 3.5 is the way to go over the 3.
There is a UA-camr who lost his clutch on his fairly new 79. He complained about it. His Toyota dealer eventually agreed to install a new clutch for free but he had to pay for the part.
Yeah who knows what they'll say, I doubt they'll cover warranty tbh
Unfortunately, a New Toyota 79 can be a real money pit. Clutch, Exhaust, Diff Correction, Snorkel replacement, Speakers upgrades, Seats upgrade. Wheels and Tires .Then you need a tune and suspension upgrade, This depends on what you want for a tray or canopy. Despite all those, they are a very popular vehicle to purchase, with a long waiting list.
They can be mate, though it's up to the individual how far they want to go. Like I said in the video, who buys a 4wd and leaves it stock? Not a lot of people. I certainly won't be putting seats in it or a "diff correction" almost everything else you listed most people change in any 4wd.
When’s the video coming out of you cutting that dud micky in half so keen to actually see what it’s made of!
Hopefully not to far away mate!
I put a torqit system on my TD42 Patrol
With all the hype and media marketing that the company uses
I found my system to be sub par
The welds were good but the exhaust mountings were garbage
Yeah fair enough mate, you still have it installed?
@@OutbackOffroadNT
Yes I do but I’ll be remaking the brackets
Yeah that's interesting mate, what's wrong with them?
That's tight money for so so welding
😬 sure is hey...
Is this the v8 model or the new 4 cylinder?
V8 mate, 4 cylinder doesn't sound like this
If you want to keep your vehicle reliable and the warranty intact don’t modify it!! These cars are extremely capable stock it’s the stock Toyotas that last to 1,000,000kms not ones with big tyres, lifts, tunes, catch cans etc etc
I always say stock is best. However, obviously some things get modified eventually. Suspension being a big one, my standard gear is getting tired and the rear springs are sagged. I'm getting dust on the clean side of the air filter for example to, so thats going to have to change... I service every 5000km, that's what will get me to a million km's 😅😜
@@OutbackOffroadNT I hope your rig hits a mill too bro, if you’re getting dust in I’d definitely take it back to the dealership use phrases with the service manager like ‘not fit for purpose’ they hate that remember if they’re assholes about the warranty your always protected under australian consumer law
Those clutches must be pretty weak, bigger tyres would load it up a little, but with a v8 engine in a big truck surely they build them to tow big loads and you haven’t even pulled a 6 x 4 trailer !!! Not really good enough toyota , especially given the massive purchase price
Yeah it's pretty average mate
Torquit is the only exhaust company that cut the fuel lines. It’s only for the 79 ancap models. It’s a shit idea.
I agree mate
You void warranty on the whole engine with Toyota with any modifications to the standard exhaust system big boy
So be it if that's the case 🤷♂️
@@OutbackOffroadNT all those kms you do in that red dirt your a braver man than me. Must be nice to be flush with cash …
@@mrsbradpittiful yep, I'm a billionaire big boy 😂
@@OutbackOffroadNT UA-cam must pay better than I thought big girl
Thanks for the comments and watching mate, its been fun. Take it easy 👌
It won't sound the best until it cooks in & soots up.
Funny you say that mate because I swear it's sounding better the more I drive it! But I don't know that it will soot much because having a dpf means a clean exhaust.
Another comment, I don't think you could improve the exhaust note, to me it sounds absolutely perfect. With the DPF, good to keep it, removes diesel particulates, and will stop our kids and others potentially developing lung cancer when exposed to these unfiltered particulates.
Ooh the exhaust note can definitely be improved mate, but yes. I'm all for healthy lungs.
Those systems are rubbish they should just follow the factory exhaust route ….. cutting fuel lines 😂
Pretty wild mate
It won't look nice for long dude, sorry.
Yep, not too fussed. It ain't a mall crawler, I'll give it a polish every now and then.
