Toyota Hilux Owners & Discussions [ARCHIVED]

[SeaHorse]

insight mga kapatid:

kung ganyan kakisig D4D ng hilux, hindi naman kaya tayo mabibitin sa overtake kung auto tranny makuha natin.

this is me and my wifes dream rig at gusto nya A/T kasi nasanay sya sa delica. ayon sa mga natutunan ko dito medyo mahina konti A/T at tama naman dahil sa delica ko ganun. you need a looong empty space ahead of you in order to pass other cars.

at yung 'hunting' effect ng A/T would still be present in this generation of cars?

anybody na nakabili na ng 4x4 A/T please share your findings.

maraming salamat po.

I dont know sa hi-lux but on Innova ang A/T has 260 Kg-m of torque while M/T has only 200Kg-m of torque so mas malakas ang torque ng innova D4D pag A/T.. No problem sa overtaking...

WBR,

The Hilux has a small hub center allowing you to use alloy wheels designed for cars.

The Delica A/T is more of an exception rather than the rule. A/T's nowadays are pretty good.

[SeaHorse]

thanks innova and chief otep. medyo luminaw na pag uunawa ko sa A/T pati na horsepower and torques. for sure iknow na kung ano kukunin ko budget permits.

buti nalang may mechanic on-duty.

can anyone tell me the consumption of 4x4 3.0 hilux? i am considering of buying a fortuner over a pajero FM, i heard that fortuner has same engine as hilux vigo 4x4.

sa pajero kasi i know 8km/l city and 11-12km/l long drive, baka parang CRV yan nung unang press release nila it can run to 18km/l tapos nung nakuha ko CRV namin swerte na sa 8km/l

at least sa Paj FM sure na ako. and i like white color sana sa fortuner wala ako makita na white option.

Thanks for the help

I recently purchased a 2006 toyota hilux 2.7 vtti.
My usual ritual is to first visit this forum to check which brand or infos I can get before I install something in my black baby. So far its been a lot of help.
First thing I did was match my beige interior with ofcourse beige seatcovers courtesy of Boy C. with matching dark beige(same hue with my dash)precise edge to edge floor mattings. I chose the original design, no folds perfectly clean smooth will almost past as orig leather minus 30k. Boy C. is a bad ass master of his craft . Secondly, I install a pair of stebel nautilus courtesy of Ronald from G&S, I like the way he hide the wires very neat and clean. I also change my rubbers, from stock to mickey thompson baja mtz, its the latest tire from MT courtesy of Jun from auto options. My fronts were tinted one piece courtesy of winterpine.

To other hilux owners, kindly share your experience with your chosen ride.

God Bless.

[number001]

Pls post some pics of your beige floor mattings. Where to buy and how much? Thanks!

[mbt]

we have a few other Hilux discussions elsewhere in the forums. But just a word of caution, be prepared for a harsh ride. hehe

got my 4x2 VVTI G two weeks ago. very happy with it. ride is pretty decent for me (coming from 10 yrs of driving a sedan). my current mods are

Rhino spray on bed liner
Pace Edwards roller up
Bosch horn
Beige leatherette seatcover
Green glass plate cover

all courtesy of Toyota Pasong Tamo.

Nice to hear from other Hi-lux owners!

2005 Hilux 3.0 G 4X4 A/T. Logged 17,000 Kms already. Installed Toyota bedliner and CarryBoy roller top. Ride is not bad.

[kimpOy]

[knight23]

2005 hilux 3.0G a/t, one year na next month, spray on bedliner and beige leatherette seatcover.

[nikko m]

we also have a 2005 3.0 hilux G,installed also are toyota bedliner,beige leatherette seatcover,carry boy roll bat,3m car mats and dash shield.

and yep,the ride is kinda stiff,we might change the shocks soon.

[tebs]

[tomihawk]

So far my odo reads 1.5k, got my first oil and filter change in pasong tamo. In regards with fuel mileage, the best thing it can do is 6.5km/l. I'll be more than glad if it reaches 7km/L. Is it possible?

Will try to post some pics later.

[singkit]

just had my first 1k km check up last week just before the holy week break, also at PTamo.

mine is logging 8.7kms/liter. my usual route is southwoods-rockwell and vice versa.
