Awesome car mate, been working on my GQ with the tb42, upgrading/replacing everything, your video has given me plenty of ideas, definitely going for the 24mm sway bar after your comments. Cheers mate.
Not enough people play around with the TB motors! Everyone seems to follow the herd and jump straight to a TD and spend (I'm guessing here) probably similar money than what you have done , on this TB, to achieve half the power. Good build, love it!!
Too right haha! I love these motor, so simple but so easy To make good power out of and they seem to last. Don’t have cooling issues or crank issues haha! Cheers mate
Hi Daniel you have the by far the best set up GQ around and you certainly have done some serious research and got the td 42 setup perfect, great review
Great video Dan, I reckon you have one of the best GQ’s I’ve seen. I reckon you should plumb your blowoff valve back to the air intake just to keep a bit of crap out of it and in case the boys in blue pop the hood one day. Just a thought!
Gavin Thomas thanks mate. I have thought about taking it off but it does work well when On and off the throttle. As for plumbing it back it, it’s not a bov where you can do that haha and I’ve done $1000 track and more with it like this, nothing has gotten in! Cheers
Awesome video mate keep up the great work. I've done a couple of rig Run downs on my rb30 y60 nissan patrol but yours vids are alot better then myn good job 🤙👌
Hey mate love the the vids they just keep getting better and better! Hey are you able to figure out where u got the your rims from? They look mad and I want to get a set, cheers.
Yeah the gu diff is like 50mm wider overall. Never been an issue, although I’m not far off putting a gu rear housing in and that will make the track widths the same
Get far better economy with the 4.6s. With 4.6 I’ve seen 14/15 litres on hwy unloaded and no roof rack. As it sits now can average 17/18 litres hwy loaded with the roof rack. Bush kms will see between 20/25 litres.
Daniel Kistler that’s pretty awesome, better then my old td42. why would anyone bother pumping 10k into one just to overheat and get chopped buy a Tb 😆
Thanks mate! For me personally I don’t see it as really necessary. With a shim in the lsd it works well and still drives good. And cost like $7 and an arvo to do!
Hey mate interested to know more! I've got a worn out old carby tb42 with a spare engine im going to rebuild and add a turbo onto. How did you go changing it to efi? Love it!
Hey mate, if your going efi just go straight to a Haltech with a stand alone loom. Far easier and far better. Jump on the patrol Tb turbo Facebook and there’s a heap of info on there. Cheers
Awesome rig!.. the secret is out finally!... love that Jurassic Park school bag, I am sure you got a lot of attention when dropping off kids... it matches my TREX.. haha....
@@DanielKistler Thanks mate, looks solid but thirsty. I think we'll be seeing more of these as TD42's become rarer. You can get well over 500 hp with a TB48 there is a GU in Dubai but the guy went to town doing up the engine
LIVING ADAM MAN NOT HUMAN it’s on par if not better than any other petrol petrol I’ve driven with including 5.7/6 litre. I think that’s about as good as it gets for a petrol in a heavy car with that much power. Yeah tb48 are easy to make good power but how much power do you need haha no point in getting excessive in one of these cars, makes it unreliable in my opinion
@@DanielKistler True. The benefit of doing one of these up is the fact they are cheap to buy stock. And you make good points and have done the hard work. A LS would use less petrol though and sounds a bit better, and don't need a turbo etc. But for me I love my TD42ti it's hard to go back to anything petrol but a lawnmower...Hehe
awesome rig mate! I'm about to build a tb42 turbo and they are so underrated. Did the Rb20 plenum bolt to the tb's lower intake or did you use the rb20 lower intake?
nice vid mate, just a quick one, with the fridge, was that the lowest you could set that size fridge ? or did you raise it up to fit the Comp and travel buddy, about to do the same, just wondering what size waeco I can fit keeping it as low as possible, would like 65 but considering the 50
jack drewitt it was a little bit lower but I raised it up like 50mm to fit the oven under it! But you could easily make it floor level if you wanted to! It does sit a little bit high but it’s not to bad for me or the misses!
no dramas, I was hoping to get the top of the fridge to sit level with the titan draws, but looking at all the fridges available I don’t think it’s possible, the dog will just have to jump higher, also is that yallourn ps?
Yeah I don’t think you’d get it that low. But you could get it close enough. The waeco 50 and 65 are the same length and width just different heights, so if you can fit the 65 it’s worth it for the extra room! It’s loy yang mate!
Got one in the shed just Havnt put it on yet haha. It was on my old roof rack that I sold but I kept the awning. Just Havnt got around to it yet, much like putting the light bars up there haha
Hey I’ve just bought an 88 GQPatrol and has a TB42 and I’ve been told that the fuel is horrible in them, what’s your experience with the fuel range on it and is there anything you’ve done that can improve it? Would be appreciated if you could reply tia!
Hey mate, seeing as it’s a carby model there’s not much you can do. Take it to someone who can make sure the carby is operating correctly, new plugs, leads, Dizzy cap, check valve clearance and give it a service with a new fuel filter. About all you can really do!
Nice vid make and great build. I wouldn't necessarily say the tb's are under rated, It's obvious a big petrol 6 will make power. The only reason the tb's are second best is because the td is more than adequate and cheaper to run. Tb's are good cheap thills besides running cost where as td's are good for travelling or daily work bus towing a trailer. It is worth noting the most fun i have had in a patrol was in my previous tb42 with a gtx3076. Now I drive a td with gtx2867 for towing. Not as much power but still alot more than it needs.
phukup87 it’s honestly just about personal preference. The reliability and economy I get out of this, aswell we the power is just absolutely perfect for me. It has a heap of bottom end power which is great for general driving. I’d be more than happy to take this through the Simpson desert. They are underrated because no one has a good crack with them they just prefer to put an LS In and gain zero benefits and loose power, or a TD and loose a heap of power for far more cost and in my opinion less reliability (engine only) also for something that your tripling/quadrupling the power of they still remain reliable which is great. Don’t get me wrong I love a TD aswell, and they do serve their purpose for sure. But if compare power to cost to reliability a TB will win every time. If you include the cost of the engine it’s far easier to get a bang for buck set up for a TB that will last forever. They don’t have heating issues and they don’t have crank issues. Horses for courses though, and for me personally I can’t really see the point of having any other set up. Again just my opinion and how I’d prefer my cars set up and why I believe they are under rated. Cheers mate
@@DanielKistler I can't argue with that. You have a good formula worked out that's for sure petrol makes good power, combine that with a heavy rotating assembly and large capacity gives you the best of both worlds. I have learn from other people's mistakes and run my td around 700nm wich is 50-100 under the two piece crank threshold and i run a higher AR than what is common wich allows me to retard my timing and move some heat/pressure into my manifold and avoid bottle necking at higher rpm avoiding high engine and egt temps. Work perfect when i'm travelling over my gross combo. That being said I am building a gq ute for play and I'm pulling the td out.
phukup87 sounds like you’ve also got it figured out! Like I said horses for courses, it’s all really personal preference and I do like a good TD! Cheers
STEVE thanks heaps mate. It’s just hema 4wd aus map using the memory map app on a Samsung tablet. It works well although when planning a trip you can’t beat the paper maps
@@DanielKistler how easy is the install, does it rust out your rings and is the power worth the fuck around?? i want to run it in my diesel GQ so im very curious on the install and how it plumbs into the engine , do you feed it straight into intake or do you need special type of injectors
Craig Balfour easy to install, will never rust out engine internals, it atomises in the intake. On my car it’s 110 percent worth the effort for the benefits but as far as the benefits go on a Diesel engine that’s some research you’d have to do! In the video it shows where the jet is in the intake.
If you check my channel you'll see I had a tb42 turbo patrol years ago, they really do haul ass! I'm onto a gu s4 tb48 now but really miss the old gq they are brilliant simple rigs.
Daniel Kistler no studs or new bolts? Im trying to find a stud that will work with the tb42, but if you havnt i wont need to. Cheers for getting back legend
Tidy rig, lots of common sense applied everywhere! Great vids!
Paul Djuric thanks mate. Appreciate it!
Awesome car mate, been working on my GQ with the tb42, upgrading/replacing everything, your video has given me plenty of ideas, definitely going for the 24mm sway bar after your comments. Cheers mate.

The td42ti is a bullet proof motor that’s probably why has good torque and you don’t have to rev the shit out of it
Hi Daniel you have the by far the best set up GQ around and you certainly have done some serious research and got the td 42 setup perfect, great review
Thanks mate. I do definitely enjoy the car
Again a very sick video mate, now I am frothing to get my turbo build on the road and back in tue bush…💪🏼
Thanks mate, make it happen haha
About time we see another gq build with out a td42 up the TB42E
Absolutely haha! Tb for the win!
Mate very nice build. Like your attitude and thinking on parts etc. been building my GQ for 3 years and never finishes lol. Love the TB42!!!

Callum White hahaha I never had a muffler in it until like a year and half ago! Best thing I’ve done 😂😂
Awsome Weapon of a TB GQ WAG! Keep up the great work. I will have to Settle with My TD ATM but miss my TB’s big time!
Thanks mate. I think everyone needs a Tb in their life haha!! Cheers
Great video man! Please post a few 0-100 pull so we can get an idea of the power it makes. Tb for the win!

Wade Man haha thanks mate! Cheers
Long shot but what spacer did you use for the bump stop ahaha! I unsure what I need for my 4” up dront
All depends on shock length. This video is old now and I’ve changed set ups. Made a 30mm spacer for my current set up
Amazing work mate ❤
Thanks mate
This is one well done gq bud, top stuff
Thanks mate
Looks mint mate just brought a TB42 carby given me a lot of inspiration for it 👌
Chuck the carby out and strap a turbo on it haha! Cheers mate
Daniel Kistler haha that’s the plan for it mate 🤙
What turboharger you have ? In what rpm It soools up ?
Mamba td06 20g. .73 rear, hits full boost just under 2000.
Hey mate love the the vids they just keep getting better and better! Hey are you able to figure out where u got the your rims from? They look mad and I want to get a set, cheers.
Thanks mate. They are always getting posted on Facebook. If you typed in alloy beadlock on Facebook they will come up. Cheers
Is your front wheel track wider than the rear because of the front GU diff? if so have the different wheel tracks ever been an issue?
Yeah the gu diff is like 50mm wider overall. Never been an issue, although I’m not far off putting a gu rear housing in and that will make the track widths the same
What sort of hiway kms do you get to a tank of 98 on the low boost setting? With the haltech, 4.11 and good tune shouldn’t be to bad?
Get far better economy with the 4.6s. With 4.6 I’ve seen 14/15 litres on hwy unloaded and no roof rack. As it sits now can average 17/18 litres hwy loaded with the roof rack. Bush kms will see between 20/25 litres.

Hey mate what sort of rear bar is that? Cheers
Luca Chang made it myself mate
Great video and awesome rig. What kinda liters per 100km are you getting out of it
Thanks mate. Averages around 20 LPH on a high country drive
Might be selling my cruiser and looking at a TB Q Bus but stock as a rock 🤷♂️
Perfect mate! Stock is a good starting point!
Weapon bro 💪you dont have dramas with the rears scrubbing on your panels with those factory bumps
Thanks mate! Nah, all the bumps have been spaced to suite shocks/wheels
With the recommendation for the 24mm rear swaybar, what type of driving did you notice the improvement?
Everywhere. Handles better, more stable on hills, doesn’t lift wheels as easy and doesn’t feel as loose.
@@DanielKistler thanks. Putting it on the list.
Morwell?
Loy yang
Awesome truck great setup
Thanks mate
Inspiring set up man! Wondering your reason for not running a locker in the rear? Not sure if I want to keep the LSD or not.
Thanks mate! For me personally I don’t see it as really necessary. With a shim in the lsd it works well and still drives good. And cost like $7 and an arvo to do!

@@DanielKistler Haha... that's so sweet!.... anything related to TREX is good :) .....
is that the hill off clarkes road?
Blake Clark yeah mate
Mint rig!! Curious on how much a basic turbo low boost setup would be for tbcarby
Thanks mate. I’d allow about 5-6k. So you can do a good ecu like Haltech with stand-alone loom and go full efi. Same as what I’ve done on my other car
How much fuel does it chew per 100k's please? Do you have any dyno figures?
Depends what sort of driving and how hard you drive it. Generally between 15/25 per 100. If your giving it a real hard time I’ll see 30!
Dyno figures are 250kw/606nm on 14 psi. And 200kw/500nm on 11 psi
