  1. Time for 315/75/16s, no point stuffing around with half measures 👌
  2. Well that was a lot easier than I thought, about a hr a side, total three hours but I also rewraped my exhaust headers as well. if any one is thinking of doing this it’s actually very easy, and saves 500-600aed that the workshop wanted to charge in labour. Total was 367 in parts so not to bad. will see how the car drives after this but the old mounts where completely separated/stuffed. will update after I take it back for its inspection thank you
  3. Yeh I agree, I want to delete the rubbish looking plastic as well, makes it easier to get to the wheel and you can mount fuel containers as well. There are people who make the delete panels and the mount for the licence plate, just haven’t found where in Dubai yet. If you do can you let me know?
  4. Always up for a challenge, 🥴 just wondering if anyone had any tips or tricks when doing them. changed the transmission mount not long ago and it still looks ok.
  5. Quite a few people just make a spacer to pack it out, this one’s a bit extreme but you get the idea. I think the best option is to delete the trim altogether, I think this looks the best and is the most functional there are also spacers available to lift the tyre up when fitting larger tires. you can just turn the mount upside down to achieve the same thing but a bit more work cutting the studs off and swapping them
  6. Going to try change them tomorrow 🥴 Good eye, I can neither confirm nor deny that the catalytic converter is installed or not installed 😜
  7. Ok……so car failed it’s rego inspection yesterday 🤯, apparently engine mounts are stuffed. has anyone replaced these? Any tips, I am going to have a go tomorrow at changing these myself. Thank you
  8. Hi @JeromeFJsorry but I am going to have to pull out of the drive as well, minister for war and finance has a doctors appt in the morning and I am on babysitting duty 🥴😫 apologies I was looking forward to this drive. Cheers nathan
  9. Hi Jerome, sorry I can’t make it. I have removed myself. have a good drive
  10. I am using “car scanner pro” app on a 10 inch android screen. (Don’t have a good photo but I have 10 gauges up on the screen at one time, including engine temp, gearbox, intake, MAF etc.) I am using a veepeak obd11 Bluetooth reader to transmit data. this set up works on my brother in laws Y61 (bravo echo) except he doesn’t get gear temp as it manual. ( he’s just using his phone at the moment as the screen)
  11. Will keep an eye on the temps, I have fitted an extra electric fan and installed a new hub fan, and will be upgrading the trans cooler shortly, I will bypass the transmission cooler In The radiator. I have also wrapped the headers and spaced the bonnet to help with temps at low speed. I was idling today for about 40 mins with a/c flat out and engine never got above 88deg. Before it would go above 98 very quick when idling. Intake temp was up to 75deg
  12. bravo echo has the “hard Korr” 9” rounds (2.4km range) above and 6” hella black magic below. Also has the 3.2 hella black magic piller lights I have the 3.2 hella pillar lights and the 40” hella light bar and the hella 6” value fit round lights on the front. All up about 2k but I installed my self. Also have the Hella black magic 6” flood light on the back, has a really good spread and not expensive
  13. Best value and performance I would go the Hella black magic, I have the 3.2 cubes and the 40’ light bar. Also have 3 6’ amber Hellas on the front. great performance and won’t fade after 3 months like the dragon mart specials there is also a new Australian brand called “Hard Korr” there is a dealer in Dubai. For 2.4km range they are awesome.
  14. Has any one upgraded their radiator to a alloy 3 core, the upper and lower caps on my radiator are showing signs of age and I am worried it might crack soon as we come into summer. has any one done this? Any leads on suppliers here in Dubai. thanks
  15. After the gearbox upshift was fixed I have been meaning to remove the Oman Hack, the switch was down near the park brake and I had knocked it once on the 311 @120 😳 car slammed back into 3rd and engine check light lit up. Don’t want that to happen again so finally got around to removing it today.
  16. No I got the guy from SpeedECU to do it (near JLT) completely changed the car.
  17. Sorry to miss this one, looks like a good run, please let me know if anyone has to drop out 👍
  18. I have been suffering from this problem, I had the Omani hack but did not like using it. just had my transmission reprogrammed to remove the upshift and had the rev limit/fuel cut reprogrammed as well……….completely different car to drive. I would recommend anyone who has one of these generation Pajero to get this done before anything else.
  19. Just be careful when blowing the filter out with compressed air, the filter material is easily damaged and will allow larger particles through. @Frederic advice to give it a gentle tap to remove the majority of the sand is perfect. If it needs anymore best to replace the filter, cheep insurance. p.s, of the three guys I know who have blown Pajero engines in dubai, two where from sand and both had cold air intakes fitted. The third was the screws from the intake butterfly’s falling in to engine.
  20. Congratulations @GauravSoni truly a pleasure to be on your drives, hope to have many more. 👏🏻👏🏻
