Absolutely mental build, I drove Hiluxes all the time in Afghanistan and Iraq. Damn shame we have to import older ones to the US... stupid chicken tax.
Mate i am thinking about putting the v8 out of my 96 statesman(VS bought for parts) into my late 11/97 4x4 hilux(bottom end engine knock ) manual box , any input would be great . I hear they get around the same fuel economy as the diesel and the gear can handle it .It is used for towing the 4.2 meter tinnie and flogging up and down the highway dump runs and some occasional 4 w d , mainly as the daily driver and towing the boat highway miles . Never to old to be young but in the 50's want it to be reliable and last for at least 10 years.
Love your videos mate, I’m have been planning on ls1 swapping my ln106 hilux for a long time and it’s great to know there’s others within Australia doing it. I’m always full of questions about it, and constantly gathering parts for when it eventually becomes a reality. My conversion will be a lot simpler though, as I am doing non turbo Ls1 to R151F gearbox (that is Toyota’s 5spd manual from KUN series hiluxes.) please keep making videos I’ll always be here paying attention to what ur doing!
@@lodeo001 , sick! Thank you!! How is the engine figment? The RV is on the LN106 chassis, is that the same as yours? One more question, do you know of any informative forums or FB pages in regards to LS swapping Hiluxes?
Hi Brian, thanks! the transmission is a T700 with a marks adapters kit to fit an N50 transfer case I believe. I got the transmission/transfer complete.
@@lodeo001 awesome man! I’m putting a LS and th350 in my 84 4runner. I have the adapter to run a Toyota Transfercase. I’m just afraid of breaking it. I’m running 35’s with 4.88 and lockers. Been on the fence of selling my Transfercase and building a NP205 case.
Bloody launched it 😍 good old camera man Notman
This field you took it to was a perfect play spot
Got the good ol Holden astra power steer pump , nice
that ls1 intake, gets along good with those 5.3 706 heads, rectangular ports vs cathedral

Have you launched it on pavement yet?
No issues with the Transfercase? What spline count is it?
Not as yet but also haven’t loaded it too hard at this point. Not sure on the spline count as the transmission/transfer were complete when I got it
