Armax SNORKEL

Safari Part Number: SS792HPVD

The SS792HPVD Safari ARMAX snorkel is purpose-built for the MY24 Facelift Toyota 70 Series V8 (1VD-FTV) engine, delivering an astonishing +100% increase in airflow over the stock air intake. This massive airflow improvement supports high-performance modifications like advanced engine tuning, upgraded turbocharger systems, and larger exhausts, ensuring your LandCruiser operates at peak efficiency. The snorkel’s cutting-edge 4" Air Ram underwent extensive CFD testing to optimize airflow, FEA testing to ensure durability, and NVH analysis to minimize noise and vibrations, so you can conquer the harshest terrains with confidence. Beyond airflow performance, the raised intake safeguards your engine from dust and water, maintaining reliable operation even in extreme off-road conditions.

Durability is a core feature of the SS792HPVD Safari ARMAX snorkel. Constructed from UV- stabilized polyethylene, it is built to withstand the toughest conditions. The snorkel’s design ensures it can endure heavy impacts and rough terrain without suffering damage, ensuring that it lasts the lifetime of your vehicle. Its precise fitment means that installation is straightforward, and its high-quality finish ensures it not only performs exceptionally but looks great on your vehicle, complementing its rugged off-road aesthetics.

  • Wider compressor map for improved performance
  • Billet Compressor Wheel
  • Surge Slotted Compressor Housing
  • Internal Ball bearing with 360° thrust assembly
  • Direct bolt on
  • Retains ARMAX Engine and drivetrain warranty*

Armax CLUTCH

Safari Part Number: SDVDJ70CHD

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.


  • 1100Nm (250%) Increased Torque Capacity
  • Designed for increased power, torque and high GVM applications
  • Long service life maintains torque capacity within 10% over the wear rate
  • of the clutch disc
  • Standard vehicle pedal feel with improved diaphragm lift control
  • Safari ARMAX slave cylinder
  • OE drive characteristics
  • 12 months 20,000km product warranty
  • Safari ARMAX Engine & Drivetrain warranty*

ARMAX OIL SEPARATOR

Safari Part Number: SOSVDJ70

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.


  • Crank case oil vapour separation
  • Reduces intake carbon build up
  • Allows clean air delivery to engine
  • Improves performance and fuel consumption
  • Reduced engine oil contamination
  • Reduces intercooler outlet temperatures
  • Serviceable filter
  • Fully sealed and internally bypassed

Armax FUEL PRE-FILTER

Safari Part Number: SFFVDJ70RH

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.


  • 98% particle separation (based on 30 micron particles)
  • Designed for high output applications
  • 100% water separation efficiency (based on 300μm droplet size)
  • Prevents premature engine component failure
  • Easily serviceable
  • In-cab water detection alert
  • Maintains Safari ARMAX ECU engine and drivetrain warranty
