The chargecooler more efficient than an intercooler and its perfect for space constraints hence why I have one on my commer and will be connected to the 605. Its a crazy conversion this patrol. Seems like the perfect Dail, toy, tow vehicle ever. Great work!

[@CheekyNinja]

Its not more efficient, it has to go through two state changes rather than just one. Air/Water/Air vs Air/Air

[@connerlabs]

@@CheekyNinja it is theoretically less efficient for steady state heat transfer, but nobody uses full throttle all of the time in a car, the water can absorb heat when you're on the gas and dissipate it later, so it probably works better in practice than an air/air intercooler ;) The VW/Audi TDIs all use air/water charge coolers now.

[@CheekyNinja]

@@connerlabs it isn't more efficient. It might be more effective for short durations as you can use it is as a buffer to control temps but once your water heats up you can only take out as much heat from your charge air as you can emit from your cooler rad. Most setups can't maintain water temps so gradually heat soak. Whether that is a problem will depend on your use case. Since when has a vw commuter been a performance benchmark worth using? Look at track cars instead.

[@petergriffin4629]

I love the OM606, it's such a prehistoric piece of engineering, my dad has an a 180D with an OM636 in it, which is an engine developed before the second worl war, you can see the similarities. But it's also such a fucking beast of an engine, also one of the best sounding Diesels.

The body appears to be largely rust free, I think it's in pretty damn good shape overall. This truck wasnt really offered with many options in my country, hence why it never really caught on. The nissan armada with the 5.6l v8 and automatic transmission has never appealed to tuners in the states. Sweet truck, I wish I was as mechanically skilled as you are so I could build something similar.

[@texasslingleadsomtingwong8751]

I love love love the vk56 motor. Really well built . You are right , Americans have not thought to really dive deeper into the Armada's underlying design and little to no one has heard of the patrol . Myself, I'd love to do an exhaust upgrade on my Armada as well as a quality roof rack. Another huge issue I had was tires . The Armada comes with 20" rims sporting "c" rated tires . Wasn't an issue til I had 5 passengers , hitch rack , a touch of gear on regular roof bars and a trip through a riverbed . Two days later began noticing a faint vibration going down the highway . Pulled over , and noticed signs of tire belt slip , hmmmm . Looked a bit more and noticed a far more concerning sign . Where the tread pattern stops at the outer edges of the sidewall , there was tiny little holes in the valley between every tread . Didn't understand what I was seeing. Sat in the parking lot thinking on it 🤔. Then I got my cellphone light out , looked closer . 😳 it hit me , there were cavities inside each hole . The tread was separating ! Well , I've been here before with my 7.3 powerstroke , and previous owner fitting on C rated tires . Have damaged rear of bed both sides as a reminder. So , went E rated for load , went AT type tread , swapped to older Armada 18" rims for more sidewall . Ended up with some killer quiet tires that are tough as nails ... wife hit two curbs already and I hit one. Damn passenger side blind spot . I still want to look into getting a bat wing type side awning as well.

[@svnbit8408]

Oh wow, I didn't realize this was solid front axle, I'm shopping for one and the 98,99 first 2 yrs of this gen are eligible for us import and I've got a bit more room make my money to farther as they're generally demanding land cruiser money, and come to think of it I could save even more grabbing one from a friend who's dad is a car dealer in Colombia. ( Coincidentally I first met him and he actually picked me up in a 5 door last gen running on natural gas/petrol to buy a land cruiser they sold an hour earlier. ) Whatever I can get away with pre shipping as far as work and mods would be a great idea, with the USD /COP being ridiculous. I imagine customs isn't interested unless it's newer vehicles, newer oem engines and parts that are grey market and not exempt or requiring compliance etc. That axle is a great surprise given the Prado is independent front suspension, which I don't mind too much. I don't need solid axles for my use cases, but I remember the patrol being one of the earlier cars to have coil springs, ABS, etc Plus I'd have to get one of the new years I believe to have an inter-cooled diesel in. It's not the best line of the Toyota diesels. I'm sure these Nissan's that they get out insane like are good. That being said, what is the desire to have the Mercedes diesel over the Nissan? Is it just baseline reliability over the Nissan motor when modded ? I can't imagine they'd be cheaper I guess it's more for one off builds not mainstream dailys? I currently sold an fj cruiser before prices drop 15 percent across the board, and want to drive something I can make money on for less money, room to mod too. Problem with FJs are I bought auto replacing a total vehicle, finding a clean one or as a statewide game as well, and the manual transmission version of this vehicle on this wheelbase that has the permanent all-wheel drive with the 60/40 front rear just adds more grip when throwing it into corners. I told myself I'd find a clean one later and supercharge it. that with a 5,6-speed and just mild tire size increase would be nuts, and I wouldn't mind an earlier model western vehicle for a build to save, just important to find a clean chassis. Do you know much about these patrols? Don't they have a straight 6 cylinder as well? I believe in the previous generation? As much as I want to own my first diesel and mod that I wouldn't mind getting a 6 speed with a V8 or V6 petrol, as I'm adding torque etc and reliability. I just want a short wheel base manual boosted pretty much, and this patrol would be rad. I'm guessing the V8 of this generation lacks a manual transmission, in Colombia I they have the 90 series land cruiser with a manual with that smooth reliable V8, that would be fun to drive as well, another daily you could beat on everywhere andl tune. they have them both for the 80 series along different variations of the 4f carbed up to injected and the same multiport injected straight 6 offered in states with auto only on believe. They also put that engine in the 70 series short and mid wheelbase, in manual, pretty rad. Yeah I was just curious if you knew much about these, gas and diesel, not a deal breaker, but I like the generational updates for a daily driver, that's one thing I take for granted with the FJ as the gen of the Prado I was after is great amd I'm sure fun in diesels but things like atrac and the rest of safety is nice when it's not too much more to spend now on an older FJ when prices are realistic. So yeah, this patrol, Prado and Pajero 3.5 petrol with manual is what I'd like I'll take anything for a deal even the less preferred Toyota and Mitsubishi diesels that are a bit underpowered, and bonus for left hand drive South America discount and quicker process. I gotta have a manual transmission again, I can't wrap my head around the Nissan Xterra or else I could get that done here in the states, a Jeep Wrangler I can afford until recently has the worst manual transmission have driven in a while, although an jl manual that only comes v6 boosts would be fun.. The patrol just stands out from his uniqueness. Now those salad axles and the potential for diesel and just lifting easy being desirable. I was donorship and being able to handle power with or without gears, plus I think the 99 gen has more leg room, they're generally shorter vs Toyota Mitsubishi, back to the early patrols. (Which outside Australia Colombia has a grip of them still on the road. ) any insight appreciated cheers

again thats incredible. I miss my y61 sold in 2014 after 11years of companion it was a zd30 (dont miss that engine ine real). I went some years without any offroad veicle, and Last month got a Frontera (Vauxal) 😅 omg not quite the sane. For some days I was looking for an Y61 again and they are quite expensive, but as I saw your video I realise I will focus to the car an trasnsmition contition since I was preffer a swap with a relayable engine.

I've been meaning to start a 'bucket list' for a while but I didn't know what else it was I needed to do in life. I do now. I've had over 80 cars in my name from brown cortinas, purple dimma kitted 1.9gti's, panda 4x4s, dogleg merc Van's, import gtb's, 200sx s13, 306 s16, pink vitara fatboy, 328i schnitzer v8 disco, Infiniti ex30d nismo juke u get the idea. I want one of them for my retirement
