All-Metal Hilux N70 Airbox: Put Your Toyota to the Test
There’s no shortage of reasons why Toyota's unbreakable Hilux is so highly regarded among 4WDs. From the hundreds of units owned by the largest mining and energy companies in Australia, to the commanding wins they've posted at international competitions like Dakar and W2RC, no other 4WD is better suited for a wider range of punishing off-roading duties.
The mighty Hilux does have one notable weakness, though: the OE airbox. Extreme under-bonnet temperatures and vibration can weaken the Hilux's un-reinforced airbox, causing it to warp and allow large volumes of destructive dust and debris to enter the engine. Fortunately, the fix for this costly problem is as easy as upgrading the Hilux's airbox. And there's one aftermarket manufacturer in Australia that builds sturdier, and more efficient Hilux airboxes than anyone: GTurbo.
