26-27/100 on gas, 22-24 on petrol me. But she's done 350K.
I figure it's a big truck so thirst comes with the territory. On the other hand I could always drive my missu's Civic but someone might...
Nice truck....
G'day TPC.
I'm interested - just have to check the dates with 'er indoors...

Reckon so, nearly chocked on my wheeties when he gave me the price. Told him I didn't want to buy a full set!
Nice rig. Could do with some decent pinstripes but... :-)
Sweet. :-)
LOL, welcome to our world Hodge! Nothing like driving around town with the interior going off like an 80's disco :-). I tried the magnet, worked for a while but started flashing again recently...
Ridgehaven, 5097. me.
Re the 99 trol. Bloke sounds dodgey to me. I agree with 4by - those two suggestions are a dead giveaway if the heads cracked or blown a gasket.
FYI, I paid $10K for my 98 Ti with 340K's on it.

Good one Willkenobi. I bought some bright white globes the other week. Very disappointed was I...
There's a few mods for "miniumum" off road time me thinks...
350 clicks out of a tank full of gas is good. I'd be happy with that :-)
LOL, I use my sunroof ALL the time. I love it (reminds me of the days I had a HZ Sandman with 2 sunroofs!). Pity my missus doesn't...
I have the Ti model, and the factory roo bar doesn't allow a screwdriver clean access to the clip slot (unless of course the truck has been "nudged" in the past...). I got jack of the lack of...
Just adding my two bobs worth...
small stitch welds (10-15mm max) diagonally opposite each weld will work best to minimise warping. Mig pressure between 10-15. One thing you need to check is that...
Evening All,
Has anyone tried to remove a grill without busting off the two lower lugs and the one attached to the Datsun badge? I have to remove my thermo fan - that's another hassle. Can't find...
I cut about 4" off each side and welded the same size square tube back in to maintain the structural integrity. Can get you exact width measurement if you like. (FYI, I did the same for my late...
Definitely like to see those threedogs. Cheers.
Tie down brackets for fridge
Hi All,
Quick and easy fix for tying down the old fridge if it doesn't suit to use the factory tie-down brackets.
Scabbed around the wreckers on the weekend and found some baby seat parcel tray...
G'day All,
I wanted a cargo barrier but didn't want to pay $500-$600 for anew one and couldn't find a second handy for sale so I decided to modify one. Bought a barrier out of a later model...
G'day AB,
CD's in the mail to you this week (I've sorted "the whinging pom" - he's happy) had to go back to work after a month off so been otherwise occupied :-(
The "Nissan Parts" CD doesn't make...
Thanks ferret - I'll give that a go.
