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. WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.
What made me angry today? Getting the EGT and Boost gauges and realising the nut welded into the dump pipe was 1/4, not 1/ so the probe doesn't fit... AND realising I don't have the barb fitting for the boost line to the sender... AND realising the wiring is too short and I can't get more as the MRS took the other car... AND the Patrol is outside as the bikes in the shed in pieces and its starting to rain and I need to put the wiring back together to put the windows up...

Yep, it ended up being a tarp job, with me putting it all back together by torchlight awaiting a trip tomorrow for parts. Poor neighbours must think I swear like this all the time...

Yeah nearly all EGT probes use 1/8. You can get the 1/4-1/8 adaptors form your local or nearest fitting supplier. Same goes for the boost sensor.

Nice bloke you are....Laughing at someones misfortune...
Ran out to Pirtek and got the adapter, made me happy! Bring on tomorrow! I have the MAF sensor adapter coming for the boost sensor (wow pricey!). But, my welder broke and my need to buy more tools is wholly over-ridden by the over-pregnant wife at the moment!

MAP sensor adapter you mean. The thing that goes on the intercooler...
