Roca Snorkels

[cellone]

i mailed Overland 4x4 to see if they did

one of these

to fit a surf

they contacted the maker and need more info

"Hi,

Sorry for the delay again in repling. The manufacturers are based in Spain so naturally the Surf (being ex-domestic Japanese RHD as you know) was not distrubted there hence a lack of knowledge on it. However, we do have snorkels for Hilux and 4 Runner which may fit. Can you please send us a picture of the vehicle and we will try to match it up? We alse need some details of the engine and the location of air filter if possible to ensure its the same as the other models.

It would be great if we can find a solution for you - as theres not a better looking snorkel on the market.

Kind Regards,

James"

does anyone know if the Hilux and 4 runner is the same??

i have told james i would post this on here as i know so little about these things

any info would help as i want one

you can contact them direct at info@overlandby4x4.com

The 4runner is the same as the surf. same truck just a different name.

True, but the 4runner was a 3 litre. The Surf is 2.4 or 3 litre. I don't know enough to say whether the air intakes (i.e. filter) are in the same places..

The same Safari snorkel fits the 2.4 and 3.0 (diesel) 2nd gens. There are small differences in how the pipe work connects to the air box but they are not really significant. The petrol 4Runner is, I suspect, different but I'm not sure.

By the way, a Safari is around £150 so you've gotta like the look of those things

Safari snorkel looks far better and are cheaper too. Those Roca ones are very bulbous looking.

I had an email back about these snorkles , £559.71 each including colour coding for your vehicle. Ouch !

gamedawn where did you get your safari snorkel from. £150 is a good price.

i also agree with morr, the safari ones look better.

cheers scotty

Yeah, much prefer Safari ones, but I was getting quoted £300+

Those Roca's are damn ugly!


The safari is so much nicer.

Mine came from Scorpion Racing around 18 months ago and was £150 ish (I think maybe postage was extra). I wouldn't think the Aussie dollar has changed that much since then

The safari is a marvellous snorkel, i recently fitted one and now she can breathe easier.

The Safarri ones look quite nice but for the price difference I think I will just build my own out of PVC pipe. My friend put one on his 4Runner and it cost about $15 Canadian. They really don't look to bad either if you do it nicely, he has a respirator mask over the end. I'll put a picture up soon since we got some good ones today after he got suck but before he fliped his truck over!!!! That wasn't fun.
