Takes time. The channel might need a bit of a hook too like MCM’s 240Z build, or the stanceworks 308 build. Something a bit over the top and expensive with a classic chassis.
As always, consistently the best variety of automotive content on RUclips. The perfect mix of technical information and entertainment every time. Love your work blokes
There is somethiing in your style that makes whole Skid Factory operation seem calm and down to earth. Nothing overblown, nothing cheesy, nothing pompous. Here and now, down to earth, like one would talk to his neigbour or a friend. Love you, guys!

This has got to be the best grass root show in Oz (that have come across). nothing against the guys in the early days like mighty mods, but this stuff is one of my favourite channels on YT. These guys do it the home(ish) way, and the proper way at the same time, love it.
I love this... so many people gave me crap for doing mine the budget way , i went the super cheap way with a used 1hdft turbo+manifold off a mate, made oil ligns, sent it (only went this way because the 1hdt manifold flows better in the collector and ive seen guys use the 1hz manifold and get higher egts basically just from flow in the stock manifold... not that anyone shouldnt do it that way, but i had acess to the 1hdt one so i went that way) all in all i did the conversion for under $800
Al and Woody, a quick read through the comments demonstrates the quality of your work and the appreciation of your subscribers. This is by far my favourite YT channel. Your guys a real, down to earth, funny and ultra knowledgeable. Keep this formula coming. Also, how generous of you to provide that template for others to use FREE OF CHARGE!!! Another reason to rate this channel. I’m sitting here in Tokyo watching while I’m away working. Can’t get enough of you guys. Well done.
@@theskidfactory your grasping for content.. you cant turbo a non turbo toyota..period.. g/box different. engine different.. 7 psi max.. pointless waste of brainless money..
Mate, if you had a 1hz cruiser, don't think you'd say that. A bit more power for a few grand is pretty attractive. Have you priced factory turbo vehicles compared to the non turbo you already own? Or the somewhat crippling price of an engine and transmission swap?
As a fellow Na 1hz owner I commend you lads for posting this, absolutely helpful, especially the bearings issue I would've otherwise not known about. I think a turbo kit is most definitely on the cards now. Once again great video Al n Woody good on yas !

Good on you Woody and Al very wholesome video helping out a mate with his classic Cruiser. Appreciate you guys sharing knowledge and intellectual property without wanting compensation. I don't see myself ever using it but stranger things happen on the daily. Keep up the good work guys.
I love the fact that you're making the plan available for free (and I don't even have one of these trucks). This is how it should be- people helping each other. No "patron only" or whatever, just if you need it here it is. Good stuff 👍
It's videos like this, as to why this is one of the wholesome, down to earth channel out there. It's not all about chasing that number. It's sometimes about just doing so very basic upgrades to your daily. Loving the content 🍻🍻
Cracking video fellas, woody over here knocking out a masterpiece with the edit. Such a perfect example of an 80 and a wealth of knowledge passed on for the rest of us, thanks keep up the brilliant work boys
Years ago I had an 80 (1HDT), an interesting 'trick' I found was swapping out the airbox with one from the 1FZ model, its the same airbox, only the lid is different. Instead of being flattened its a nice radius bend and slightly larger pipework. Just that one change boost increased from 12 to 17psi! without a change to anything else. Wound it back down slightly Shows a major restriction in that one part, made the system more efficient with better boost response
Always come to this channel for sarcastic comments about every engine tied in with great down to earth knowledge of the same engine that is useful to the common DIYer. Love the vids, enjoy the banter, keep up the good work
Amazing video guys!! 1. Here's the mod we wanna do. 2. This is how we did the mod (with all the epic info ofc.) 3. Let's do a dyno run, to see/show how the mod turned out. Even though it's 35-40min long, it just feels short and to the point! 😊
That intro alone was worth the like. My heavens I love this channel, the people in it, the stuff they do, and the smile it puts on my face EVERY SINGLE TIME. You guys are superb humans.
My hdj80 just rolled over 600 thousand.. replaced the big end bearings at 530xxxkm, basic mods, intake and exhaust.. never has missed a beat, paid 8k for it just before covid 👍
Wow, I learned more from this video than all the others combined. I've got an old hz with high km and would love to do something like this but it's always daunting with the risks involved. This is peace of mind! Awesome stuff!
Absolutely love the way these episodes are concocted. Really smooth filming and very pleasurable and easy watching. Great work. Love the outcome! I have the same grandpa spec 1HZ 80 and you have inspired me to get a turbo. Still not fully confident to do it myself but it's great to get all the correct information 😄
I've done that trick Al mentioned about filling the sump up with oil when you drill to flush the filings out. Only I did it with diesel because it's cheaper and I could filter it and still burn it.
Love your work & how up front you guys are, no BS policy , I think I’ll have give you guys a tingle when I’m ready to fit one to 1HZ troopy when get it back on the road. Cheers 🍻👍
Well done fellah, awesome vid, I just purchased an 80 series, looking around on the tube about maintenance and bumped in to this channel, effin mint! 👍THANKS for the grins...
I really liked this one. And I'm not into Landcruisers or Toyotas. But upgrades like this are super satisfying and I love how you guys do vids on big budget builds and budget stuff too. And the music was on point!!
Such a nice video to watch, just enough info, good filming, not dragged out over 16 parts. Just a simple build. These old diesels all have their quirks. I made the decision to td42 swap my patrol just over 2 years ago, very similar spec to the cruiser. Nice little 16g and a 10mm pump. Still serving me well! I dont think I've ever seen Al more excited for 99 horsepower. Good to see some nice diesel tuning as well. Top vid.
My first time viewing the channel and I'm very impressed with whole process. As a Old Yota fan this is something I would love to do here in Florida for our mudder fun. Very sensible approach to eek out some power from these old goats!
Oh yeah, Super cool. This thing surely improves fuel economy too, thus saving the environment and adding wooshy goodness to our favourite place - the beach!
This is some of the best content I’ve seen in recent times. Thanks so much for taking the time to produce it. Now I just have to decide how to proceed with my old girl :-)
Really enjoyed this ep lads! Well done, Love the look of this thing to, old school decals, sun visor, splitties. i drove my old barn door 1hz 80 and if I had of known it was achievable for that sorta price I should've done it! So good of you to have the idea to put the mud map drawing up to just good guys!
Hey Al, something I learnt recently when working on high 4x4's is to let the air out of the front tyres, makes it SO much easier to work on. Only took me 40 years to find that out. 😁
Something I learned really quickly as a 5'7" short ass that often found himself uncomfortably sitting on top of the engine to be able perform certain tasks. Can even go one better, take the wheels off and sit the axle housing on stands at their lowest possible position.
@@eamonquinn70 Use a tractor mounted FEL and dig down so you can put the front end of the 4x4 in the hole and just walk into the engine compartment.....
love to see these low $$ doable at home kind of vids guys, keep em coming! Would love to see something on getting a bit more power from a 2.5tdi as fitted to a VW T4 van :)
Another 1st class video from the Skid Factory. The videos are always stress free and easy to watch. I particularly enjoy the quality of work and workmanship. I would have really liked to hear Josh's response to the upgrade after dyno and his first drive. Maybe you could get him to do a short follow-up?
Awesome vid. I've got a 105 series with a 1hz running 8psi and after seeing this I'm definitely looking into new big end bearings and a tune for it. Keep up the great work fellas 🤙
I really like how you've retained the stock airfilter assembly. Also while you've got the sump off and doing a bearing roll-over because of kilometres, why not throw an oil pump at it?
You have to dig through the timing case to get at the oil pump. So having the sump off doesn't make it that much easier. I also have a suspicion that they're not the cheapest thing. I'd assume if the oil pressure is still good you wouldn't go there. I'm not a mechanic. 👍
It’s videos like these that make me think back to a few years ago when Al didn’t want to string two sentences together in front of the camera. And Woody couldn’t focus to save his life. I’m taking the piss cause I’ve always loved the content you guys make. You’ve have come so far following your passion. Keep up the great work guys! Thanks!
Nice to see a real mechanic that can fabricate parts and not just swop parts out. Also good to see people that are not driven by greed, just out to make the most money. Actually sharing their knowledge. Good on you mate! 💪👌
Having just finished >5,000km doing the Shitbox Rally and home in a 1.9TDI Beetle, I'm in love. I've just bought a big turbo and all accessories to give it some big boost love! Can't wait to get it back on the road!

Anytime boys, always a laugh to be had when we’re all in the shed.
Would this type of turbo mod be viable for a 2H motor?
Keen for more diesel content reckon you guys could do a compound turbo setup for the next build on a yd25 or zd30crd or 1kd?
Just wondering why you used a subaru turbo & not a Ct 26 pleb question probably but curious?
Seriously, why is this channel not in the millions of subscribers?
Such a wealth of very good information for the average bloke.
Lets share the video all together making it happen 🎉
Definetly, and there is so much good dad humor in there too. And the quality of the videos is top notch!
It deserves to be much larger!
Takes time. The channel might need a bit of a hook too like MCM’s 240Z build, or the stanceworks 308 build. Something a bit over the top and expensive with a classic chassis.
cause kids aren't interested in knowledge, only hype -> "OuR 1HZ mAdE 7 MiLLioN hp!!!one". That said, slow growth is sustainable growth.
Absolute legend idea putting up the blueprints for the turbo mount instead of selling them.
Truly thinking of the budget builder 🤙🤙🤙

I’ve found over the years it’s a good idea to sort the valve clearances on the 1hz. It never gets done as needed and it often makes a good difference.
Under rated comment
Out of curiosity, do they tend to tighten up because the valves recede into the head, or get looser from wear at the other end?
@@Rollin8.0 looser so the valves don't open all the way. Due to wear

This is great currently turboing my 2H on my 75 just got my front mount done on to my dump pipe now then it'll be bolt on weekend 😊
Having just finished >5,000km doing the Shitbox Rally and home in a 1.9TDI Beetle, I'm in love. I've just bought a big turbo and all accessories to give it some big boost love! Can't wait to get it back on the road!
Superb, sensible and really practical. Well done, giuys!!
