Similar to what I'm planning also :) I don't like the look of the standard downpipe, looks like it doesn't flow very well, so am considering having one made up. Is this something you are also looking to do? Where are you getting the turbo work done? Rob

That's pretty good. What Turbo and Exhaust changes are you making?

I payed a hefty sum for a pair that were advertised as being for a Freelander 2. I'm sure the listing said "Supercharged" and "Rare" lol however I can't find the listing now... Had to cut tabs off the back, but they fit perfectly :)

Agreed - If the crank is going to break, then it's going to break. More likely to get clutch slip due to the increased torque etc. I ran my Synergy at #3. Was great to drive, lots of go but also quite a bit of smoke... So currently I'm running around at #2 until I have made intercooler and...

Happy Monday! A small amount of progress with the lights over the very wet weekend. Fitting the projector unit meant the sidelight bulb would be covered over. I could use the redundant hole to run the projector flap actuator wiring out of the bowl without needing to drill any holes. I had 2...

The Projectors are from a company called "The Retrofit Lab". They do loads of different lighting kits. I went for the "Mini H1 6.1". I just bought a second hand headlamp from eBay and have ripped it apart myself to fit the projector. As far as I'm aware there are no aftermarket projector...

I have no idea yet. I reached this stage only last night, so I need to now re-wire the light internals, re-build it all and fit it to the car to test. In theory - Yes. And I'm confident it will all be OK, good pattern etc. There's no reason to suggest otherwise :) Here is a photo of the kit in...

Another dark wet night meant I had some time to play around with my spare headlight. I'll bring you up to speed so you know where I am with my lighting changes so far... I think lights make a huge difference to a cars appearance. Not only the style of the lamp and it's internal details but...

Thanks mate :) So the water into/through the vents was also a big concern of mine. Mines the TD4, so I was slightly less worried than if it were a K-series, but obviously wanted as little water in that area as possible. Once I've got the RH vent air intake all finished I'll share some photos...

Whilst I wait for the rainy days to stop... and the weekend to arrive so I can snap some more detailed pic's in daylight, I'll share a few basic photos of the car. (I'm awful at remembering to take photo's as I do things!) The car as I bought it - After restoring the headlights, fresh number...

Hi Chris, The spacers I went for are made by a company called "Direnza" and are their "Black Edition". Seem to be good quality, made well and fitted perfectly. There's been no torque drop off on the bolts after a few thousand miles use, so I'm happy they are up to the job. Anything less...

Exactly that - The beam control is poor at the moment, I've currently got them dipped 1 setting. If I was selfish I wouldn't care too much, but I hate being dazzled by oncoming lights, so I don't want to be one of those guys... The projectors will hopefully arrive by the weekend, then I can...

Yep, the Xenon Projectors give such a bright and sharp beam. I tried Nightbreakers and really wasn't impressed. I've currently got LED Bulbs fitted and they are amazing, but I'm very conscious that they are pretty bright and could dazzle, given they are in a standard light bowl designed for...

Thanks for all the comments, I'm glad it could be of interest to some of you :) So here's a list of the jobs I've already completed including some that are currently a Work-In-Progress... Aux. Heater rewired to work as a Remote Preheater (My Favorite Mod by far!) Replacement MAF, Clutch...

OEM+... I hate the whole "Stanced Thing" and the way people bang on about it, labeling things, generally the same as their mates and following a rough set of "Expected" guidelines... E.G - VAG cars, rubbing the floor on Porsche wheels. Or Jap cars with wheels pointing at obscure angles. So I...

Good Afternoon LandyZone peoples. This is my first post on here, after months of using the site to search for info, so Hi to all! :) I bought my 2003 3 Door Freelander TD4 "Sport" last summer and over the following months I fixed and fettled what appears to be the common niggles... Dead MAF...
