Just thought I'd share with you lot my last ride before my Patrol shortie.
It's a Nissan Terrano, but badged as a Ford Maverick (UK).

Basically it's a SWB IFS 4x4 with a nissan 2.7 turbo diesel lump.
Top mount intercooler with 14" kenlow fan for off road cooling. Also has a water spray off a Scoobie.

Straight through S/S exhaust 2 1/2" system including new big fat downpipe. Turbo is running 15 PSI.
EGR blanked off and oil blow by dissarmed to keep the I/C clean inside:biggrin:
I've fitted LPG injection to the engine and puts some serious grunt down and now slips the clutch if I give it too much beans. The ECU is also chipped with a TUNIT II. All in all the engine is now chucking out about 170 BHP and shed loads of torque. Resulting in a pretty damn good power to weight ratio.
The back of the truck is all striped out too. Just a flat bed for all my tools etc when at work.
Anti roll bars are removed front and back.
I'm running +2" suspension lift and 33" muds on 16" alloys.

Highly modified and strengthened steering setup and damper.
Steel custom winch bumper and 12,000 lb winch up front.

Custom made internal snorkle with roof mounted scoop intake.
The whole thing is pretty compact and does really well for IFS helped by LSD at the back, so cocking a leg doesn't really matter too much :tease:
Generally pees off the landy boys too :devilred:
Hundreds of pics here on my photo bucket link. There will be some other assorted pics too but don't worry, I don't :tease:
Things don't always go smoothly :1087:

Nice, a bit tougher than my Terrano. My transmission slips with standard horsepower!
