Cheers I’ll pin this comment if you’re sure 🤙
Finally did this to my 1HZ after contemplating for around a year, didn't want to lose the reliability but needed a bit more berries. I went with the DTS Turbo, HPD front mount, 3 inch exhaust, catch can, redarc gauges and dyno'd, went from 79hp to 128hp running at around 14psi. I did a drive in drive out costing just under $10k, after having her for 14 years and costing me nothing, thought this wasn't too bad. Absolutely stoked with it and glad I made the decision to do so, she only has 225,000k's on the clock so should be good for another few 100k's as you said with kept up maintenance and regular oil changes. Great Vid Mate 👍
Love to hear stories like this mate! It does make a lot of difference and they’re a lot more fun to drive with a bit of get up and go to them! I’m glad I could be of help in the decision making process 👍👍
G’day Will, had my 1HZ 105 turbo’d at about 130k ish by Berrima Diesel around 18yrs ago. Ran around 8-10 lb boost. Loved it after driving it N/A. Did a head gasket at about 360k ish (long story) but when the head came off we found micro cracks in the piston crowns. Decided on a full rebuild cause I love the old girl and I own it. Went with a turbo upgrade kit which is basically from the 1HZ-T that was in the coasters in Japan (so I’ve been told). It consists of pistons with thicker crowns, bigger gudgeon pins and thicker conrods. I had the pistons ceramic coated for good measure. Along with a new oil pump, water pump, new head, alternator, 3inch exhaust, catch can, and a few other sundry items it’s purring like a kitten. Runs about 13-14 lb boost. Looking at fitting the cross country large intercooler with a 79 series style bonnet scoop from CT custom repairs in Charters Towers. Had an upgraded gearbox from 360 gearboxes in Melbourne fitted a few years ago along with a heavy duty clutch, the box is an exchange item designed for towing.
Yours is a nice rig, keep it simple and it’ll las t forever. 😎👍
That sounds like a beauty of a rig you’ve got going on there Dave! Nice work! Love to hear stories like this about people putting in the work and taking pride in their cruisers. I hope it serves you well for a very long time!
Hi there Will, another great Video mate, clear and concise and just tell it how it is with your experience so far. Keep your video's and information coming.
Thanks for your time mate
Cheers for the kind words Anton!
Thank you for your video man, I’m looking to turbo my 1HZ 81 here in the USA
Love your videos, can you please do a video on what to look out for with 105's buying second hand?
Cheers for that! And that’s definitely a video I could work towards in the future!
Keep in mind Zach that the 105 has the same if not slightly different to an 80 series chassis and drivetrain
@@RyanW589 ohhh yes good point
Great video, I just fitted a DTS kit to mine and the drive ability is so much nicer now
Running 10 psi and it’s been faultless (only been a few weeks though) I’m yet to fit and EGT gauge to check that but for now it runs perfect and is the best thing I did to my 105
Good stuff will keep them coming 🇦🇺👍👍👍
Thank you! 😊
I blew my JB Turbo on my last Cape Trip. They were a nightmare to deal with and I'll never use them again. I'm glad you had a good run with yours. But for towing this thing failed #BAD.
JB turbos are a ticking time bomb apparantly
This was a great video. I live in Madagascar and want to add a turbo to my 1hz. Do you have a link where I can order it? Thanks for the informative video.
U've got a taste bro.
Hi mate! Great channel! Is your 1hz Turbo still alive?
Yes it’s still cruising at this point! 😎
Thanks for sharing. I was wondering where you get the 3 gauge piece/rail arm? It really keeps things neat
4x4 concepts make the pillar pods
What do you think guys. I have a 105 with 300k. Need more power to tow van. What do I do
Love the video mate?? New to the 105 series and love it, i have the same setup and but as you know the jb turbos do not have a good rep and i was just wondering do you know if any other turbo can bolt straight on to the jb setup??
Not 100% sure but pretty sure UFI and G turbo both have similar if not the same flanges
Nice work bro, I’ve done the exact same kit on my 1hz troop carrier but no intercooler yet. Just wondering if you added a resonator or muffler to the Ppd 3 inch? Thanks for your help
Just the resonator, no muffler. I love the sound of it!
Great video . I’ve done the same to my 1HZ but still concerned about cracking cylinder heads albeit have all the mods and EGT gauge . Thinking of doing a 1HDFT conversion and not the FTE because of electronic fuel injectors
Wanted to know whether you’d considered this ?
As long as the EGTs stay pretty cool and it’s not pushed too hard, damage shouldn’t really be present- and cracked cylinder heads are pretty rare in these things. You’re more likely to crack a piston. It’s all risks for sure but if you get a safe tune you can minimise those risks. Funny you mention the FT, as I am currently building an FTM (mechanical FTE) and I’ll have videos on this conversion as soon as my back comes good and I can start funding it again!
Just bought a turbocharged 105 for 4k 😅 granted all the pistons are cracked from overheating, but 1k for a rebuild kit and a quick hone and she'll be sooting again in no time
Awesome video, so stock injectors and pump??
Cheers for that! And yep stock injectors newly reconditioned, stock pump 500,000km old
With a conservative boost, say 7 psi, and not flogging the landcruiser when driving, do you reckon it will still get 700k plus kms out of an engine, like a unmodified 1HZ engine?
Thanks
Nice vid mine hits 100 in 3rd cowboy tuned 10 year old dts . Upgrade your airbox . Factory one is dog doo
Hello, my name is Ariel, I am from Argentina, I have a Toyota Coaster made into a motorhome, I travel a lot to Patagonia and I have many climbs and the torque is not enough. I bought a turbo and I am starting to modify it. Is it necessary to put a TPS on the diesel pump? Or just giving it more diesel is it okay?
I only think give it 0.5kg of pressure, does this compromise the reliability of the motor a lot? Thank you
For 5k do you really think it’s worth it will?
Or would you maybe hold off save up another 5k ( give or take a few k) and buy a 1hdt or 1HDFTE and drop it in
I guess it depends how far you wanna go. For 5k you can have a lot of fun and I know you can tune them to make a lot more power than I’m making but 5k and a conservative tune will last you and you’ll enjoy it. If you’re power hungry or want something that’s really going to make reliable torque, an FTE is definitely a good idea. However you’re looking at closer to 15k for an FTE once you take into account accelerator pedal, ECU and loom. And then to make more power from an FTE you’ve got mods to do to that as well. So it’s just a matter of how far you wanna go
Why don’t you attempt to get a compensated pump?
Hey mate where are you getting your oil pressure from?
I hear you have a squeaky accelerator too!
Squeaky accelerator and clutch 😂😂
Hi Will, what do your Water temps sit at at highway kms? Ive got pretty much the same build as yours except i did a front mount intercooler. Sits at 95degrees when over 100kmph. Not sure if thats too warm or not. Cheers
Hey Ben, wish I could be more helpful but I am still using the factory water temp gauge so I can’t give you a figure sorry! The gauge sits a bit under half way and I’ve never seen it rise- but who knows how hot that is!
paint looks shmick for 500 thousand, has it had a respray?
Thanks! The rest of the car actually has 630,000 on it (long story), but no respray! Just been well looked after. Mind you there are some small surface rust spots, nothing major though
Do you have AC with turbo?
With the 33s now fitted your speedo would be out of calabration by 10 kms take that into your data so time it to when ypur reach 90 kms its much quicker !
Yes so it’s about 5% out which means at 100, I’m actually doing 105, at 50, I’m actually doing 52.5, etc. so I possibly was a little late on that call. On 31s, I could get to 100 in 15 seconds. Definitely an impressive improvement from NA! :)
What were the dyno results mate?
Check out that video I have on getting my 105 tuned. I go over both sheets in detail there 👍
How much power and torque? Is there any shift in phase of the peak torque?
Peak torque pretty consistent before/after the tune at about 2100 revs. Now making 325nm and 85kw at all 4 wheels. Very conservative tune for reliability and longevity, obviously it is possible to get more out of a 1HZ than this
Hey Mate. I had question with the turbo. Its designed to run at 12psi. When you set it at 10psi initially did it run ok? I intend to set it at 10psi. I do have the intercooler with the kit was just wondering how it ran at 10.
Hey there, yes so I was running it initially at about 8/9psi. It was obviously better than stock, but no real power increase before the tune obviously. Fuel is what will give you more power, and the turbo is just a tool to safely add more fuel by keeping the mix right. JB Turbo recommend you run it at 14psi, and I would recommend that too, but there didn’t seem to be much of an issue running it at 10. You’ll likely see slightly higher EGTs and won’t be able to tune it quite the same
@@WillsLandcruiser thanks for that. We have another variable of altitude where I am so it will be an interesting tune
@@lakhjitbirdi4500 Yeah okay that will be interesting. All the more reason to have a turbo! Keep an eye on those AFRs when you tune it and watch the EGTs post tune and you’ll be alright
Whereabouts did you buy the kit
Unfortunately Eclipse turbos/JB turbo have recently gone out of business and you can’t buy their turbo kits anymore
Where did you get the SA landcruiser sticker from?
Go look them up on Facebook! Not sure if Ben is still making them or not but there’s a great little Facebook group for south Aussie cruiser owners!
@@WillsLandcruiser cheers. I’m already a member on there. I’ll have to ask!
@@bensparks9467 yes do that! Give Ben Cottle a tag or a PM 🤙
@@WillsLandcruiser is yours the large or larger size?
Will a 1hz N/A all loaded up as a tourer still sit on 110kph?
Yes absolutely! Give it a hill and that might be a different story 😂. They get up to speed, just take their time. You just gotta pretend you’re driving a truck and not be in a hurry to get up through the gears :)
Only on a dead Flat Road driving with the Wind, 😅
ILLEGAL PILLAR POD HAHA
Only if ya get caught 😂
