    my 44" 2.8 GR

    its a 1997 2.8 GR SLX (GQ) long wheelbase

    modifications

    3" exhaust

    and tuned injection system.

    lifted up front 20 cm with oem lift landcruiser springs and dampers. for they are bigger than the ones they make for patrols and yet fit the patrols as well. at the rear its been lifted the same height but with the standard patrol springs that where lowered with lift. and the place where the dampers connect to the framwork has been lowered so the originals can work.

    the body has been cut and fitted with specially made 44-46" fender flares

    the diffs moved both front and rear so there is more space between them and you can still turn the car.

    its been fitted with dual transfer-case.

    5.42:1 diff gears

    electric speed corrector

    vhf radio

    gps

    cd player, amplifier, and 2000 w sub woofer.

    and fitted with 44" dick cepeck fun country tires on 16" wide and 15" tall beadlock wheels. albeit 46" tires can be fitted if wanted

    and best of all street legal

    Nice truck.

    Is a step ladder an accessory? Unfortunately it's not street legal in Australia.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    this is how it looks like today after a few minor mods like high lift jack connections front and rear and white painted grill.
