Safari 4x4 know that the typical Aussie 70 series owner is loading up more and more for work and play, towing, touring and fitting out their vehicle with all sorts of upgrades. The Safari ARMAX range of performance products have been designed in conjunction with one another to provide the ultimate solution to providing the Toyota 70 Series with uncompromising power.
With the popularity of performance upgrades using engine management and larger exhausts, Safari 4x4 Engineering took the decision to design a snorkel system that not only raised the air intake to prevent ingesting harmful elements to the vehicles air cleaner, but also would be able to deliver the necessary volume of air into the engine, therefore maximising the performance enhancements potential.
Huge air flow is but one aspect of the ultimate in snorkel design suitable for the Toyota 70 Series Wide Front LandCruiser 03/2007 Onwards 4.5L Diesel 1VD-FTV. The Safari ARMAX snorkel air ram is designed to perform two very important roles. The most obvious is to funnel cool clean air into the snorkel body - but just as importantly, the Safari ARMAX air ram acts as a highly efficient water separator to remove rain water from the incoming air stream - thus ensuring safe engine operation through even the most torrential tropical storms.
The Safari ARMAX Engine Control Unit (ECU) is designed to work harmoniously with your vehicles OE Engine Control Unit resulting in more power, more torque, better throttle response, less fuel consumption and less turbo lag.
This is all backed up by Safari’s sophisticated engine protection systems which are constantly live monitoring your vehicle for total drivetrain safety and ultimate reliability.
The professionally developed and engineered Safari ARMAX Turbocharger for Toyota’s 1VD-FTV diesel engine delivers amazing performance. The Safari ARMAX Turbocharger is designed to restore lost performance by allowing a larger air capacity through the turbocharger, in turn, offering an increase in engine power.
The stock Toyota clutch is very robust and well matched to the torque output of a 1VD-FTV engine and intended use of the vehicle up to standard GVM and power levels.
In performance and/or increased GVM applications, the engine demands substantial improvement in clutch performance. Safari have engineered a replacement clutch rated to 1100nm of torque which provides a 250% increase in torque capacity whilst maintaining stock driveability characteristics.
Clean charge air to an engine’s intake is critical for maximising performance and fuel economy. The Safari Oil to Air Separator is designed to remove oil particles that enter the intake charge air. Oil Vapour separation prevents the build-up of soot in the vehicle’s air intake manifold and critical engine components are kept clean.
Diesel fuel can become easily contaminated with water and/or micro particle matter which highly degrades the quality and effectiveness of the fuel being injected into an engine. Contaminated diesel fuel is one of the most common causes of diesel engine failure. By adding a Safari ARMAX Auxiliary Pre Fuel Filter, the diesel fuel is passed through a 30 micron primary filter before it reaches the vehicle’s standard final fuel filter.
