It was a struggle but got there in the end. When I do my next service I’ll be using the long filter that can bend 90 degrees. It’s the filter sock that gives you grief

About mid 300’s. I bought during an online sale

You should be able to. I done a major pump upgrade on my XR6 without changing reg, but the factory reg on those are capable. I’m not sure if you would like to trust an old RB30 reg though. Cheers!

It’s back home to its owner. I’ve done my jobs. It’s sitting on new R31 diff, tailshaft wheels & brakes being sorted and ECU wiring next

@@PangazShed do they have a CZcams page I can follow on?

For the 525 you need the 160mm length 10mm ID hose. Cheers

Changing the front chainring should be straight forward. Normal tools to remove the front chain guide, crank arms etc. The chain might need to be changed to suit the teeth of the new single chainring (if it’s narrow-wide). If you want to change the crank assembly to something more exotic then you will need a bottom bracket tool to suit. But if sticking with simple taper bearing as I have then proceed! Cheers!

​@@PangazShed I followed this and used the exact same stuff....it aint working wtf. The derailleur wont shift to the lowest 2 gears no matter I do and im frustrated

@@mattnielsen7639 Check your high limit screw on the derailer.

Yes would be a straight forward mod

I don’t have any unusually loud noises that are of concern, I did spend a lot of time trying to get the tuning spot on though.

Hi there, I used the TS-0404-1015. And it’s been working good. Cheers

Cheers Tommy, what a grind 🤣

That’s a beefy Karcher, however you’re right, definitely the more flow the better. I think you usually need to look for around the 13L mark and over 3000psi. I wouldn’t call my particular Pressure Unit professional, it’s a knock off Honda unit that’s imported by a local machinery joint in my state. The attachment itself is great due to its quality cast and long lasting carbide tipped nozzle. The golden Amazon cheapies are a glorified suction feed squirty bottle.

That’s awesome mate, loads of fun! Thanks for your kind words

I don’t have the tool spec, it was just a generic cheap one from eBay (comes in a 5 or 6 pce kit). It’s got 12 splines if that helps.

I’m loving the combination of parts. It’s smooth and less clunky than the original 2x system

I used the original location as the submersible hose in tank was still in one piece

Far out that’s impressive! All these horror stories about T5 shitting the bed on stock power even N/A. I’ll check out that Ross Reviews vid, cheers

@@PangazShed honestly as long as the box is in good condition ie oil, oil cooler and filter and you should be fine as long as your not abusing it constantly changing while under high rpm and boost pressures, if you’re keen when you give the box a service add a magnet to the inside of the box pan to catch and foreign metals or at least a magnetic sump plug , works wonders good sir I wish I had a power glide but it’s welllllll out of my budget

Good condition, yeah maybe - the input shaft is wobbly as! 🤣 but yes I’ll be doing the oil in the upcoming weeks, handy tip about the magnet! I’ll def be checking the condition of the oil that comes out! I know what you mean about gearbox/ trans upgrades, expensy! I guess the best time to replace is when they no longer do gear shifting things! Cheers mate

@@PangazShed hahahahah yeah bro my thoughts exactly 👍 rare earth magnets work wonders , we get ours off eBay cheap , it’s not gonna save it from disaster but I find it’s a small cheap preventative measure, new clutch will do wonders too. Problem is we get stuck in the mindset of while I’m there I may as well fix lol 😂 never ends ai , I like your content

Are you talking about T5 or T5z as that car in Ross reviews had a T5Z it’s a turbo box different to the NA 5 speeds

Should work upwards. As long as the syphon (sand) hose is always on top. The Venturi effect of the high pressure water below the sand entry part will cause the vacuum and draw the sand through. Remember the bucket or bag of media is usually ground level not above you so it’s less gravity fed and more Venturi effect.

They both have their pros and cons. This setup is also messy, loud and the flash rust is a problem. Wet sand lodged in crevices can be problematic also.

Awesome! In case you want to do the wiring upgrade, I’ll be uploading a new video of me installing a Walbro 525 in my XR6 with heavy duty wiring. If I decide to upgrade the wiring on the VL (I’ll inspect for any melted or brittle wiring since the upgrade) I’ll do the same as what the video will show as it’s pretty straight forward. Thanks for watching!

No problems as the original has a lift pump in tank and a high pressure outside of tank. The 255 is higher in spec that it can handle the lifting and sending to the rail no worries. I didn’t upgrade the wiring as the 255 isn’t a power hungry pump. I would if I went for 460/525 which I recently done to my XR6. But the wiring upgrade was simple really.

Thanks for the feedback. It seems some people like lots of detail some people like none. In the future I’ll make 2 versions

If your Marlin 4 is an eight speed, you should be able to go up to an 11 speed and anywhere in between.

Hi mate, not sure on the particulars, this engine bay took 2 and a half 20kg bags. I think I was blasting for 30 mins total.

@@PangazShed perfect thanks for the reply . I have a kp60 starlet needs the same treatment you gave your corolla it looked to turn out real good I watched a few more of your vids after this comment 👍

Bloody legend, cheers!

Except the “shocks”

Not sure to be honest! If the soda can be pulled via suction feed and the attachments nozzle is fit for purpose then I don’t see why not. Cheers

Thanks my friend! Take care

You can use any normal blasting media, but for cheapness I used kiln dried sand found at a landscape store. Cheers

Is this the 30 dollars or the 150 dollar one online?

It would be the $150 one. They have the better quality nozzle

Thanks. It looks like your tool in the video is a lot more effective than others

@thehicksfix9470 yep I wouldn’t bother with those other cheapy toys

Hi there! No issues with derailment! The only thing I had to do was retune it slightly to make sure all the shifting was spot on. I didn’t have it set up quite right once the vid was finished. Followed a tune walkthrough and it’s been perfect since.

​@@PangazShed This is awesome! Great job also on choosing the optimal parts for the conversion, without the need to change the rear free hub and pedal bearings!

Yep budget friendly! When the OEM parts fail I’ll replace them with better. But hey, I might even replace them with OEM! I just like the ease of conversion. Thanks for checking out the vid. Cheers

Always learning mate!

Yes, I missed out on a cheap used Parktool stand once! Thanks for watching
