Gidday all.

I'm Phill from down south Victoria area.

I'm a recently new 4wd owner (yes, It's a Patrol hehe) and would love to learn the tricks from the gurus.

I recently bought a 1999 GU Patrol 4.2 wagon and looking at doing some little modifcations to take the family on some touring later in the year.

Look forward to chatting with you all and hopefully get some help with my projects.

Thanks for the welcoming.

Welcome to the forum Phil.

There is a healthy rivalry between the old school TD42 fans, and the newer ZD30 owners. I've had both, My second Patrol was a '99 TD42 wagon that I fitted a Nissan turbo kit to, my current Patrol (No. 4)is a '03 ZD30 wagon.

Can i ask a question.

Which one do you prefer?

Any pro's and con's.

Just considering to upgrade the misses from her tin can Holden Cruise.

We live on a dirt road now and that thing just rattles like a tin can and It's only a matter of time till it falls apart from the corrugations.

Thanks Tony.
