    Howzitgoin??

    Gday all,

    Just sold my twin locked, turbo 80 and in its place is now a 2005 i/c turbo GU with 92 000 on the clock. The previous owner had it to tow his van around Oz and sold the van so didn't need the GU.

    It had been in 4wd for about 30klm and had rarely been off the bitumen.

    Mods when I picked it up were.

    *safari snorkel
    *ARB compressor
    *Nissan winch bar with warn 9500 winch
    *spotties
    *elec brakes
    *OME suspension
    *Rear work light
    *black widow drawers and cargo barrier
    *ARB roof rack

    My mods so far are.
    *Racetech boost and EGT gauges in pillar pod.
    *Turbosmart boost T.
    *Black duck seat covers.
    *double din Ebay stereo/GPS/DVD etc

    Wish list.
    *brush bars and sliders,
    *rear bar and tyre carrier
    *dyno tune to get it goin better
    *new tires.

    I am keen to learn the workings of the 42 and about the patrols. Sorry if I ask some newbie questions and i'll try the search first.

    I am in NQ with the wife and kids and am always keen to go camping on days off with our off road camper that I built .

    Thanks

    Andy
