99disco Posted May 4, 2012 Report Posted May 4, 2012 Bugger. They don't have them for guiv onward Shane
setsujoku Posted May 5, 2012 Report Posted May 5, 2012 Interesting though that they list them as being for Petrol and diesel, but then don't list the ZD30 as one of the compatible engines?
dronus4x4 Posted May 6, 2012 Report Posted May 6, 2012 Yeah only says 4.2. I've all ready got a snorkel but a few mates just got a bulk deal on safari snorkels, think they were about $300ea.. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Fatboyz inc Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Posted May 9, 2012 Yeah only says 4.2. I've all ready got a snorkel but a few mates just got a bulk deal on safari snorkels, think they were about $300ea.. I am using a 3ltr snorkel on my 4.2l so I can't see why it wouldn't go both ways??? just a thought.
dronus4x4 Posted May 9, 2012 Report Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) interesting. Obviously the external parts would be the same as its the same body. Wonder if the air box connection is the same or if it would need modifying. Could someone with a 4.2 post a picture of their air filter box and the connection through the firewall to the snorkle? I'll do the same for the 3ltr unless someone beats me to it.. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 Edited May 9, 2012 by dronus4x4
Toppy Posted May 9, 2012 Report Posted May 9, 2012 I know this is probably a silly question but how will that connect to a TB45 airbox? I dont see it.
twisty Posted May 12, 2012 Report Posted May 12, 2012 I got mine - (gq) will be installing on my MK I'm still waiting
admin Posted May 12, 2012 Report Posted May 12, 2012 I'm still waiting When you get it, take some photos during your install and whack em up here for us all.. Ive always wondered how hard it would be to install and wether the supplied templates would be good or chithouse.
twisty Posted May 12, 2012 Report Posted May 12, 2012 take some photos during your install and whack em up here for us all. for sure. I'll take some close ups so everyone can see the quality but, I'm not sure I'll fit it. See, I have a sun visor (luv em), and I'm not sure the intake will clear the visor. I'd prefer stainless custom anyway. If it doesn't fit then I'll sell it.
Auto Posted May 13, 2012 Report Posted May 13, 2012 Its tempting but I love the stainless steel snorkels and if I get one of these then ill never get a stainey
Auto Posted May 13, 2012 Report Posted May 13, 2012 WOW $825 for roof top tent plus $ 340 for racks. $1165 for the set up is awesome! Not sure how much postage would be though. And not sure if a 220cm rack would look ok on a shorty..
Nutta Posted May 13, 2012 Report Posted May 13, 2012 (edited) I'd love to get one of these snorkels, can they be modified for a 3.0l? Has anyone got one, whats the fit like on the body? Edited May 13, 2012 by Nutta

He's a good mutt, and thats his name! Nearly 14 now and just about stuffed, not looking forward to the day hes gotta be put down, and its getting close. Yeah, hes got a perfect line down his face like chocolate and vanilla, picked him up at the pound age 2 and he really has been a ripper! GQ Beast 1
Auto Posted May 13, 2012 Report Posted May 13, 2012 hey auto, Graham from 4wd action has a full length rack on his shorty gq & it looks really good Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Yeah I've seen his a few times and I wasnt sure if it was a 3/4 or not. I suspected it was a full. Ive measured up Deccers' 3/4 against the shorty and it looks like it would fit perfect. But I wouldnt mind the bit of extra space the full length would give me.
KMsMK Posted May 13, 2012 Report Posted May 13, 2012 I'm trying to work out what size rack to put on the mk too. It will need to carry the canoe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
twisty Posted May 14, 2012 Report Posted May 14, 2012 (edited) Got mine. Everything arrived in one piece with all the right bits and instructions. Quality is ok, however, the inlet wall thickness isn't even and the template is basic (see pics). It looks like it'll fit with the visor. I'm keepin' it. Edited May 14, 2012 by twisty jamus 1
Toppy Posted May 14, 2012 Report Posted May 14, 2012 Can you post a pic and let me know how you join these to the TB45 airbox

Nutta Posted May 24, 2012 Report Posted May 24, 2012 Well i just bought one of these for my 3.0l so will give an update when i install, apparently they do fit. Cheers
Glort Posted May 24, 2012 Report Posted May 24, 2012 I'd be interested to see how much of an airflow drop these cause. The bends and diameter of the pipe would definately be a restriction even at and probably moreso at speed.
