Very Nice 1999 Land Rover Range Rover HSE 4.6 Liter Callaway Edition Number 206 / 220 Produced Low Miles Of 78,800 Up for bids is my very nice 1999 Range Rover Callaway Edition with very low miles! It has the Gem 4.6 Liter V8 that runs & drives perfect!! If you know anything about the Gem motors vs the Bosh motors you will come to find out how easy the Gem motors are to work on vs the Bosh which is a real nightmare to work on! The Range Rover comes fully equipped with power everything that you would expect to find on a Range Rover. See below for a complete detail of what makes the Callaway edition unique from any other Range Rover. Callaway Edition: C11(Limited Edition Range Rover 4.6 HSE) 4.6 HSE Callaway Edition: The top of the line model in1999 was a limited edition (220 were made and had stickers on the dash that say Callaway and have the number) 4.6 HSE modified by Callaway in Old Lyme, Connecticut. They were available in Niagra Gray, Epsom Green, or Rutland Red. They had much of the black plastic painted body color and special dual exhaust system. The high performance Callaway engine with240 bhp (180 kW) at 5,000 rpm and peak torque of 285 ft.lbf (386 N'm) at 3,500 rpm improved the 4.6 HSE acceleration 0-60 mph from 9.7 sec to 8.6 sec. The Callaway 4.6 HSE sold for $75,000. The "short block" of the engine is the same as other Land Rover 4.6 HSE models. Short-blocks used for the 4.6L Callaway engines were stamped with a 9.60:1 compression ratio marking from Land Rover. The increase of 0.25 points, up from the standard 4.6L compression ratio of 9.35:1 was achieved by a modification to the cylinder heads. The cylinder heads were also modified to improve the airflow into and out of the combustion chambers. The inlet manifold gasket front valley clamp has been changed to accommodate the heater hose positioning on the bottom front of the Callaway manifold. The ram pipe housing has been modified by shortening the ram pipe tube lengths. The intake runner lengths were tuned to increase both power and torque. The black plastic air inlet tube was replaced with a larger diameter fancy looking carbon fiber inlet tube to match the larger throttle bore in the plenum. The air cleaner box base was modified to increase the airflow. The Lucas GEMS ECU was calibrated to support the mechanical changes to the Callaway engine (the Callaway engine had the same basic FI as in 1998 and did not have the Bosch system that was on other 1999 HSEs). The Callaway drivetrain was also modified. The automatic transmission used in the Callaway 4.6 HSE Range has a different torque converter and the transmission control unit (TCU) has been recalibrated to take advantage of the increased torque and power of the engine. The shift points in both "NORMAL" and "SPORT" modes have been changed to match the engine's increased power. The electronic shift transfer case has a new ratio sprocket set and chain. The resulting new ratios provide a high range ratio of 1 .294:1, and a low range ratio of 3.481 :1 . The ratio change improves acceleration performance in high range while also providing improved off-road "crawl" performance and coast down rates in low range. The front axle shafts used on the Callaway 4.6 HSE have been strengthened to withstand the increased torque to the front wheels from the engine and transmission changes. A material change in the axles ensures durability will be maintained for the front axle half shafts. Callaway decided to use a four-pin front differential to accommodate the increased torque rather than the two-pin front diff used on standard production Range Rovers. After working with Callaway on the four pin front diff Land Rover decided to put them in all of the 1999 Range Rovers since the 4 wheel traction control that added ABS regulated traction control to the front axle in 1999 also put extra stress on the front diff(Range Rovers from 1993-1998 only had traction control on the rear axle). The Callaway dual exhaust had reduced backpressure and was similar to the dual exhaust that all NAS Range Rovers got in the 2000 model year. Changes to the exhaust system were made rearward of the catalyst "Y" pipe. The exhaust system backpressure was reduced by 43 percent, and the interior sound level in the passenger cabin was virtually unchanged. The center silencer provides reduced backpressure and is constructed from stainless steel. A twin tail pipe system was selected to provide a performance look and sound. The straight exit twin outlets are accented by T-304 stainless steel resonator tips to visually differentiate the Callaway 4.6 HSE from other Range Rovers. The pipes are welded on to the stock mufflers and the rear bumper has cut outs for the tailpipes like it had in 1995 and 1996 (the stock single muffler pointed down and the rear bumper did not have any cut out on the 1997, 1998 and non-Callaway 1999 Range Rovers). The exterior of the Callaway 4.6 HSE Range Rover had painted body color components. The exterior components painted to match the body color are, the Entire Front Bumper cover, the Front Grill, Left and Right Headlamp trim, Left and Right Door Mirror Casings, Rear Bumper including area with Exhaust Tip Openings. All Callaway Range Rovers came with the "Proline" 18 inch 5-spoke alloy wheels. Body Colors Available: Niagara Gray, Epsom Green, and Rutland Red The vehicles are badged with "CALLAWAY" on the upper engine plenum, and on the lower rear tailgate under the 4.6 HSE logs (some models also have Callaway stickers on the front fenders. Inside, the Callaway RRs some had additional wood surrounding the power If you’re looking to take the Range off road for a little 4WD fun……this is the vehicle you want!! These are amazing 4WD vehicles that will impress anyone with its ability to navigate hills, mud, rocks with ease!! And if you’re looking to drive the Range Rover for winter use? It’s a real beast in the snow!!! Just about unstoppable!! A little history on the Range Rover: I am the 3rd owner currently with the 1st owner owning it 6 years with the 2nd owner owning it for 5 years if I remember correctly? The Range Rover was purchased in South Dakota new and as of today it still remains in South Dakota. I just went ahead and gave the Ranger Rover a compete tune up that includes new spark plugs, plug wires, PVC valve, cabin air filters, K&N air filter less than 1,000 miles ago, new rear brakes about 2 months ago.. It runs perfect! And ready to make a trip anywhere ones wants to go! It has very nice Kumho tires that are 255/55/18 with approx 80% tread left! The air ride has been removed and converted over to coil / shocks at some point which I didn’t do. I would prefer to have it this way since the air ride is expensive to have fixed. Everything is there if anyone every wanted to converted back. Overall condition I would rate it a solid 7 given year plus some minor door dings and scratches on the rear bumper. (Please see pictures.) It does have a small oil leak and I think it’s coming from the front oil seal or one of the oil cooler lines but really can’t see where. I have purchased the from oil seal for someone to put in and to my understanding it takes about 2 hours according to book time. If it’s the oil cooler line, I seem them on Ebay between $60-$70 with not being very hard to install. I check the oil level all the time and it hardly losses any oil at all. Also the sunroof cover needs to be recovered as well. It was something I wanted to mention. It’s in great mechanical condition as I said before!! Once again…this is a great Range Rover at a great price with very low miles!!! If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email with any questions you might have.
