Hello,
Time to introduce my Y60 Safari. I’ve owned it for 3 odd years and enjoyed every minute of driving/modding/repairing it. There were times when I wanted to sell it to buy TD42 powered Y60 but couldn’t find any decent SWB in our country (Jap imports are banned in Kazakhstan since recent time).
So I gave up. Though my GQ hasn’t been giving me hard times and worked just fine.
Now it has around 250000 km on the clock, doesn’t play up a lot, so far changed vacuum and water pumps, starter and of course the whole suspension. I don’t mention timing and other belts, bulbs and fuses, it’s just obvious
RD28T under the hood, auto g/box.
Engine mods – manual boost controller, EGR blocking plate. 3" exhaust turbo-back coming soon.
Suspension mods - 5” EFS coils + EFS Elite 100 series cruiser shocks, EFS Extreme damper, superior's drop boxes, extended sway bar links, extended rear upper control arms.
Both front and rear drive shafts have double uni joints.
Body mods – front guards (rear side) and rear quarter chop, Bushranger flares, alloy bullbar.
Wheels – 33x12.5x15 Kumho KL71’s on 15x10” alloys.
Future mods: rear custom bar, sliders, front ARB locker, T-case 43% reduction kit, auto box cooler, maybe intercooler, lift pump. Not sure if it’s an end of the list though.
