D22 roof rack platform

[Denisanto]

Hi all,

I bought a d22 ZD30 06 end of last year and I just start to do a bit of upgrade.
A couple of weeks ago I bought and OCAM platform and I’ve been told to drill the roof for installed the base. I felt that wasn’t a good idea so, I am thinking to buy a set of rails for the roof obviously with the clips at the door frame, without drilling the roof and installed a platform on it.
I would like to ask you guys if you have any recommendations on a set of rails which are also pretty low.
Thanks

[Denisanto]

[karl]

Where are you from anyway mate?

What about you?

 

[karl]

Brisbane mate.

First mods for your zd30 you should do egr and swirl mod aswell as a catch can

 

[Denisanto]

Sorry mate.
I am very new on this, still figuring out this web site.
I did my catch can already.
What’s egr?

 

[karl]

I'll link you to the egr subsection in the forum. There is a whole step by step guide. Very easy to do. Hopefully previous owner has already blocked it

 

[Denisanto]

All right!
Thanks Karl. I really appreciate your help.
Nice to meet you

All good bro. Will save your engine

If you look in the d22 section for body and chasis. I'd say post there about your racks

 

[Denisanto]

Cool thanks.
Egr and swirl mod, is recommended with a turbo?
A bit hard to understand, I guess I should ask them in the forum.

It is necessary
Due to emissions. Instead of the exhaust gasses being ejected straight out of the exhaust they are sent back through for a second burn. In this process it's cakes your intake with carbon build up. Mine is horrible. And needs to be cleaned. By doing the plate and swirl mod. Your blocking it off so it's sent straight out the exhaust. Hopefully someone will explain it better.

 

[Denisanto]

From you sound more clear now.
I will do some extra research, it sounds like a simple mod.
Thanks Karl

I have a set of Rhino racks that I got from fleabay for around a couple of hundred bucks that work great. They clip on just the way you mention. Been all over the place with them central Aus, high country, Flinders Ranges and a lot more. No problems with them at all.
Not sure if exactly the same, but similar to these.
