They want over $100 for the filters at nissan

Looking in the manual and searching the forum I cannot find the toque settings for the transmission pan bolts and the filter bolts. Also could someone post a flow diagram of the cooler lines please?...

Well it certainly is a unique method thats for sure.

Mine is a 2011 GU DX

I don't have the part number in front of me but I will cut the slot and try again. I will post the part number when I get over to where I have the car stored. The slot and rails inside just look to...

Purchased extension bars to try and reach the bloody coolant drain bolt on the block. Retarded design.

I purchased an aftermarket filter only to find no slot. I will attack it with a knife in due course. The aftermarket filter I have is just a single one and it seems to big for the slot though. Has...

I did a sand down and cut and polish on a set of badly crazed headlights on a nissan micra. Just worked up through the grades of paper and polish until it was like glass. I used an electric...

Go to your local paint supplier. Inspirations or Paint Place for example. They can do them in tins or cans or small pens.

I purchased my ARB compressor at Christmas time and put it in the rear drawers. It's still in the box and waiting to be fitted. Ooops. I like this idea of fitting in next to the drawers as it...

Sikaflex 227 Adhesive sealant is sensor safe. It sticks like sh1t on a blanket too. I would also suggest using a black silicone along the top edge of the snorkel where it sits up against the wing....

This is amazing, I want to see more!

Welcome, plenty of info and opinion to be found here

Welcome mate, as a fellow overland adventurer I would love to hear some of your stories.

I need to do this too, I can't see a bloody thing backing up at night. Glad you guys mentioned installing an off option when in reverse. Didn't realise "The Man" would get so upset by it. I...

Speaking of hoses and Gates. I just found this http://www.gates.com/catalogs-and-resources/resources/repository/videos/gates-powergrip-sb-clamps-and-blue-stripe-coolant-hose . Meant to be getting...

Yes you can purchase rubber caster correction bushes. I had Poly caster correction bushes on my last Patrol and the whole suspension setup was great. I will probably do the same again when I upgrade...

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome.

Sorry to disappoint Touses but I'm actually English. Just hiding out in QLD at the moment. :)

Welcome mate, the rooftop tent is a great addition, especially up North. Do your homework on them and buy a good quality one, you'll be cursing a cheap one when the weather gets bad, and be prepared...

Use a proper 13mm square male socket plug removal bit and not the half inch drive on a breaker bar. Supercrap does a kit for $40.

Also the auto hubs have a habit of locking on there own when you don't want them to and a myriad of other issues of them failing. Swapping them out for the manual ones is a popular and recommended...

I purchased one of these http://www.supercheapauto.com.au/Product/ToolPro-Torque-Adaptor-Digital/377230 I'd really a proper torque wrench but i intensely dislike the gauges on most of them here in...

Agree with the previous comments on doing the mods before tuning. I would be inclined to use as chip that is then set up by a good tuner on a dyno, rather than modding the factory setup itself. ...

Poly bushes are easier to fit and don't have the risk of rupturing if compared to grease filled bushes. They can firm things up which can be both good and bad. They come in an array of hardness...
