When I hit the link I'm actually getting a gray bar (Google maybe) that translates the site to English. Here is the first few paragraphs translated into English. This is an owner review of a 1999 Hilux Surf.
Greetings to all who read my review of a certain for many (not for me) middling dzhipovogo community TOYOTA SURF 185.
Took the car in good, in a traffic policeman, she got me in almost perfect condition for its year, well and as usual began .... . (would know how it ends in life would not bother building small cars).
began with a lift kit ARB (Khodova tenacious I passed 40 thousand and all OK, now the new owner, and he's not complaining!!) on 2 inches of wheels and 31,5 YOKOHAMA GEOLANDER M / T and snorkel RIF (purely personal, but the workmanship .. amno .... better to splurge on Magadan or Safari!), in such a machine lived 3 months, by the way no fuel no control with tuning has not changed, the machine ate 10-11 100 on the highway, so it stays (more on diesel 100-110 never ride, so this expense). Permeability increased significantly especially in comparison with the native road rubber.
Further more ... Bodilift Kaprolon at 4cm for me so rare shit!! In the shallows, and diagonals, body creaks like a tin can (once in 2-3 months stretched), although it may bolts were garbage, but the fact on the face! Also want to toot as a locomotive, put ViAir, cylinder 6 liter compressor and the same brand, everything works flawlessly, but loud itchy infection, when activated (worth in the trunk). Become better, both shinomontazhke gun, pump up wheels, and from which all signalchiki shy (when people try not to use, but a couple of times strongly rescued from pedestrians who want "to give up his life.")
After these upgrades, I wanted a bit more of wheels. After hearing the screams of his wife carefully, in December before heading into town for rubber, as selection was not great, or rather did not exist (this is also our capital Blagoveshchensk, like a black hole, that you need to horseradish find here the last time and turned out) to receive proven YOKOHAMA GEOLANDER M / T 285/75/16 general 32.8 inches and pru home! Immediately noticeable was that the dynamics of cars fell a little (on the track renegade not felt), consumption has grown in the winter to 14-15 liters on the highway, in a warm-up 20litrov! Probably many will prichatat that much is for KZ-ta, but it turned out like this, and all those who say they have less, wear these sneakers for a ride, and personally feel the difference ....! Totally forgot to say that until the wheels, one good man sent me a seaside duralumin bamperok and protection with 90 pradika putting, the machine immediately priobrazilas!
Costs cars requires a minimum (if it does not pump and drive in stock.)
What repaired over 45 thousand mileage:
-inner anthers (ran after suspension lift)
- replaced timing belt, drive belts and a single candle;
- a couple of times changed the lower ball Chinese (anthers Gamna, almost missed his passing, ball Substitute)
- Replace all bushings on polyurethane from the "fulcrum" no complaints, lives and works fine;
polymer-flooded steering nozzles and upper ball (go about 20 thousand after casting longer than kitaycheskie!)
, front and rear pads, that's like and all that remembered and certainly once in a thousand miles replacement ext. Fuel Injection filtrika before, synthetic oil MOBIL 1 3000 SUPER DIESEL as anyone, but I like, so it can kazetki recommend! Expenditure and consumables like all that he remembered ....
Undermining bucks ordered from a good friend of Irkutsk ARB lock in the rear axle, finding immediately felt the difference, rushing much more confident, especially helps to "diagonals", and in the snow and mud, so I recommend, its main plus is 100% block axis compared with LSD, and think yourself when you turn it on.
Proezdil my surfik in this form 9 months without requiring costly and there dovozil host and home to tell, and awl in one place did not give to live in peace ........ (always wanted to bridge monsters) decided ...
October 26, 12 receive "sensitive" and move the dough on a typewriter to Vladivostok to Costa boatswain in his "Atelier» I have to say ochkovat specifically, when gave to swallow ekzikutsiyu to children, and even his wife zudila supposedly otdaesch not knowing who you are ... actually realized . Specifying Kostya TTZ (bridge forward from Kruzak elevator hodovke under 36 Simex, remove Bodik and detail), give enezhki and he watched the car food to friends in discovery, then home ...
3 long months beginning on the global construction of my handsome ... I have to say in littoral 185 on the bridge nobody put so so long. Came to an end January 13, get happy news, READY!! Rush in the first weekend on the train in Vlad, Boatswain met luck to his boxing and saw him, I quietly okuevayu .... Crocodile 36 SIMEX, the bridge from 80 matches, understated pair 4.88, razdatka 130 Surf, rear levers lowered drop boxes, well, small things ... happiness knew no bounds, especially liked that the guys do not come off ANYTHING ANYWHERE, NOT zasrali SALON, generally made So how do I ask for .... (no advertising, just really liked it very much). 18.00, leaving Vladivostok. The first thing loved it no punches, knocking on the steering wheel when driving over bumps and comb (who went to 185 understand), landing was higher, and the bridge dy somehow instilled confidence ... Slightly worse handling, possibly due to the absence of the stabilizer, but for me it is not critical, accustomed to fast, comfortable speed, as was about 100 km / h and remained ... Not so scary buzzing 36 Simex as he is painted, a little louder GEOLANDER, it can be heard in the cabin kilometers with 80, but coasting machine now runs almost threw the gas pedal, and the machine speed cheerfully extinguishes. About how she will not tell rowing, 1000 comments, I would say that in comparison with YOKOHAMA M / T is the tractor tires, excellent snow gnawing and excellent sliding (like a cow on ice) on the ice reel.
Arriving home, began to operate its monsters. Consumption remained virtually unchanged compared with 33 rubber in the snow knee is fine, although in a ditch where the snow was about a meter sitting! (Good shovel is always with you) wheels are not harassment because lazy, and special needs in this. Likely many reading, say, the hell you did it all, because it was possible to take a 80-ku Safaricom answer or so, SURF suits me 1000% it is not big, not small, convenient to town, walkable (who do not believe, come on Kruzak safari ride!) with comfortable lounge (again, for me, someone says close!) general machine for all occasions! 80 to safari and darkness, and this one in the Far East! The plans put power thresholds, and change from the standard steering damper kruzakovskogo on AMADA XTREME, who yuzal chirkanite whether to spend money on it ..? That seems to be all that he remembered, try to complement the review as exploitation, anyone any questions, ask, can tell you what the thread! Thank you for your attention, luck on the road!!!!!
