Well done. Question. I`ve watched quite few reviews on Y62`s but havent comen across one yet who talks about changing big fat tyre in the bush. Have you don one? There are no hi-lift jack point anywhere. Exhaust jack the only option my guess but carrying hi-lift is handy for other usesas well. Dont have an y62 ...yet but considering. Cheers in advance
I went through this with Dash off-road.. DO NOT do exhaust without extractors you're wasting your money.. sound changes not performance... it's like a playing card in ya spokes as a kid sounds good does Jack shit...
You do get gains from cat backs depending on how the stock exhaust is made. While you do want some back pressure, the stock system on the Y62 is overly restrictive as it has hard bends and valves in the mufflers. If you look at the stock exhaust and see how both banks merge you can clearly see the massive bottle neck in the system. If it was a 2.5inch all the way through it wouldn't be an issue, but their is a few spots the exhaust closes down to 2inch which is nuts for a 5.6 V8 The Manta and Torqit systems are very well made (304 ss) and they have shown to increase power by 6kw and around 30nm. Also it will bring down the fuel consumption a tad as well.
G'day mate, will an upright fridge fit in the space available with the 3rd row seats up? Also my top 5 (1st 5) mods - pre rego - GVM upgrade and long range tank. wheels/tyres, bullbar/winch, snorkle, seat covers/floor mats. Yes technically that's more then 5 but for me that's what i needed done as a minimum to do what I want and go where I want. lights and UHF are close behind.
What about up-dating to apple play etc , i love this car but its a dinosaur in the entertainment screen and features , how can we mod this to bring it into recent times, and and what expense
I would put exc throttle controller as number 1 since adding it I keep it in ultimate 9 mode all the time instant power and just $350 I also just fitted the pacemaker 3 inch cat back exhaust awesome!! Very nice looking rig mate!!
I've done the Rhino Bar, 35 inch Nittos, new wheels and 2 inch lift. .....looks great but if I'm honest , the drive is quite compromised. Town driving at 60-70kph sits at a weird spot between the gears. Have you found this?
I don’t have a y62, but the evc when I got it was shit house. But I got a throttle grenade and it is so much better, it has more settings and didn’t explode after 2 weeks. But then it was shit customer service aswell, bc they said it was out of warranty, but it was 2 weeks old. So no money back just a shitty broken throttle controller.
