    Hit a BLOODY great kangaroo at 105kph on the divers side of the bull bar.
    Almighty BANG, bits of trim & spotlight cover flying everywhere.
    Expected a face full of air bag but thankfully not.
    All up, 1 smashed spotlight cover, spot lights pointing at Mars, smashed trim under drivers headlight, smashed park/indicator in bull bar, bull bar pushed back about 8mm on drivers side, fog lamp looks a bit second hand, young fella with me got a hell of a fright!
    Not that bad considering how hard I hit him.
    Hate the road from Curry to Mt Isa.

    Similar damage to my D1 Paul, but on the left side. Got mine west of Kununurra. I eventually replaced the bullbar light cluster and blinker lens. Lived with the slight twist in the bar.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    Sounds like you will have to replace the crush cans on the bar old mate.
    Just image the damage you would of had if you didn't have the bullbar fitted

    Sound clip of VGT turbo + TF decat and centre delete.

    To me sounds like intake is too restrictive and once u get on about half gas+ exhaust sounds too restrictive.

    What size exhaust are people running with VGT ?

    After weeks of procrastination started assembling the replacement head. Used loctite 518 for the cam carrier but it started soaking into the foam roller instead of staying on the carrier so spread on with fingers instead. Oozed out a bit but hopefully any that oozed into the oil galleries will wash out with the oil (the whole point of the anaerobic sealer from my understanding).

    No it's a landy head that has been very lightly skimmed to clean it up.

    I was looking to buy just the cam and injector shaft/rockers to fix the pitted ones (approx 500 from TRS) but spotted disassembled head on gumtree for 500 complete with injectors too (hopefuly re-fitted properly with new o-rings and washers coz it came with injectors already fitted)

    It needed the head and carrier mating surfaces cleaned as it had hard black sealant still stuck on it and the oil galleries were still half filled with black stuff (and that's after it had been dipped too) but cam lobes and rocker rollers were all good.

    I used lots of spray-on foaming gasket remover and with a bit of effort and a plastic scraper cleaned it up followed by degreaser and a good blow dry.

    I have an elring mls gasket so will put on with no hylomar or copper spray (I bought both, hylomar spray new to me, copper spray used extensively over the years, but mls gasket new to me, so will follow manufacturers advice and use with no extra sealers)

    When I got the head off it still had the plastic locating dowels and they were offset from head movement exactly like the pictures I have seen online.

    2 of my injector springs had shattered base inserts and all of the springs and plungers were easily pulled off. The replacement head I can't disassemble the injector plunger and spring by tugging.

    Old hand at engines but completely new to the Td5 so it is a learning curve to pick up on its characteristics.

    And you still haven't answered my query re your NNN for sale

    I have 2 MSB ecu both with a TRS socketed chip and I think same stage 1 tune , tossing up between buying a programmer and some blank chips or selling them and getting NNN, but mine is EU2 auto hence my questions in the marketplace.
