    New to the community

    Hi All

    I am proud to be part of the Patrol community

    I have a 2006 GU IV manual with a ZD30. I have owned it since 2010 but have only just started doing mods to it. So far I have a Beaudesert 2.75 inch exhaust, ECUtalk, extra brake and stop lights and a oil catch can. I am planning to install a Dawes and EGR. I also have a CC inter cooler on order. I use my troll (affectionately known as Kevin) for a bit of 4x4, collecting wood from the nearby forests in a box trailer ( I live near Ballarat) and towing a caravan (16` pop top).

    Future mods also include upgraded suspension and EGT gauge. I am yet to decide whether a chip is really worth it with my current mods.

    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.
