TD5 Conversion HELP!!
Devon-Rover:
The Td5 will be a dream. I could probably just scrape the money together to fit a Td.
Well i didn't know justin has got a new motor, See what happens when i injure my self. lol.
Good luck with the project.
CJ:
ahh ut justin would be scared to take his offroad as it involves gettin dirty lol
Maria, rolled TD5 disco in exeter auctions today, chassis and axles, engine and box all A-ok
Guess how much it sold for with a V5
:oops: your not going to like this
£980 :shock:
I would of bought it myself if id know it would go that cheep
Tinks:
Your right i don't F***ing like it :oops: 980 quid, thats not fair!!
I dont think Justin has any big offroading plans for the new landy, its not ment for getting muddy you know! He said he may drive on the occasional verge! :lol:
Is there any difference between the disco and defender engine?
Ian, i was thinking that getting a rolled TD5 would be a good idea, what the likey hood of getting something like that & what sort of money do ya reckon? :? Also is there any that you can reuse the chassis on?
thermidorthelobster:
I think you'll be disappointed. I've driven thousands of miles on- and off-road in convoy with 200tdi and 300tdi Defenders, and my chipped TD5 was not really any more nippy in practice - at a push I could get away from them, but not by any great margin, and in some conditions not at all. My theory is the tdis have a broader torque curve, whereas the TD5 seems to peak quite high.
Snooky:
I saw a tax exempt series with a TD5 engine in Chepstow, on the farm that runs the Quad biking down that way, looked good as well, but not sure how they get away with tax exempt as running with 90 body, disc axles all round and springs, so guess the only bit must have been the chassis :?
