    terrano vs 4runner challenge :P :P

    in Australia/New Zealand

    Posted

    One time at the end of the day at my job ( i work up at a ski resort, i give 5 people rides because im the only one with 4wd :aok: ) it was about 4:30pm and we were just getting ready to leave when this lady and her little kid came up to me asking me for help. they had tried to drive up a road that hadn't been plowed and they got stuck in about 2ft deep snow. so i pull up to help and they have like a 2004 Toyota sequoia with a v8 the dad was digging the car out, but they were still really stuck!! (wish i took some pics of it, although that might have seen a little mean). but we hooked up my pathfinder and i put it in 4wd lo and it took a couple of good tugs we got them free! they had been stuck for like 4 hours digging themselves out.

    sooo

    went to the track on the north side of yanchep yesterday in the terrano and in the company of a 88 4runner with a new stock 2.0/chinese copy of original engine innit! good news terrano owners! if you know the area well, you'll know there are some fun hills to go over up there, the terrano just walked on up where as the 4runner had a bit of trouble getting up....but did make it....the proud owner of the 4runner which is my dad, even admitted that the terrano is pretty good! i was really impressed/relieved/happy too. at first when i looked at the hills i was coming across i was nervous/@!*%ting myself, especially when seeing the 4runner get stuck on one hill where it had two deep holes in the track...

    also tried the big hill that is at the end when you go through the fence - which i dont think your mean to go in but there was well over 10 cars had already gone through so i gave it a crack anyway...unfort. no good, maybe i didnt put the tyre pressure down enough, tho it was already down to 15 psi?...

    I have a 2.7 diesel and I have the engine off, I don't cover anything and I just spray it with high pressure hose at the local car wash.

     

    Starts up fine, if anything it seems to go pretty good after a hose down. Maybe cos it's running cool?...coz I also hose the radiators.

    forgot to mention that my terra has 240,000 on the clock. lol.

     

    I have taken it to Nissan to do a full service (expensive) cause if anyone is going to rip me off and come back and tell me this needs to be done and that needs to be done it will be this mob.

     

    Well they did ring me back and there were a few bits and pieces here and there but nothing major.

     

    After that was all sorted he rings me back and says theres some cosmetic work that needs to be done? Puhleez.

    Only 4 Terrano questions :D

    Just a few questions thanks guys and gals (if any)

     

    You know the sound/alarm the car makes when you leave your lights on (not sure if this is on all 92 terranos) ...well when I'm driving around corners i hear the same sort of sound but not as loud....a bit annoying

     

    When the air con is on, she pours out dark smoke continously and idles a bit rough...is it time for a rebuild or is it the timing?

     

    Just a bit smokey when i accelerate, was told it could be just the crap fuel getting around.

     

    Thanks
