Sold the Pajero and am picking this up . . .
New here. But I just sold my 94 Pajero, and will going to pick this 3lt Turbo Diesel GU III up on Thursday.
First things will be a exhaust, 2" lift, winch, twin drawers and roof storage. I'll then look at getting a few things added to monitor the engine, as we all know the issues with them. If anyone has some straight out advice in that area, that would be great.
can't wait to get Nissan under foot

I'm another ex Pajero owner. I really liked my old NJ 2.8 td. Really low geared for the slow stuff. The GU is another step up in ability though. Things that where previously difficult will seem easy with the Patrol.

Id at least fit a boost gauge as you may find you go into limp[over boost mode] with a 3" exhaust
Plus you'll need a dual battery system as well, for the winch
Look forward to the way you tackle your mods.
Now go shake that money tree $$$$$$.
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

I didn't do any off road with the Paj, and when I sold it yesterday, the English lads that bought it, said it was the cleanest one they had seen so far. A little rust around the bottom windscreen and that was it. They were well chuffed when I said $2k

Yea true. I know a little about Diesels, being a truckie in my past life, and in the Ary for near on 10yrs, and the Landrover 110 . . . I use to be a driving instructor, for the old Macks, Unimogs and 110's, and the Mack was the only Turbo diesel. That was 20 yrs ago. I have done he ultimate 4wding while I was stationed in Darwin, so that wont worry me. I have been bogged up to the gun rails in the Mack, and taken 2 days, 400 mtrs of tow rope, and 6:1 pulls to get her out . . . Look forward to the challenge with my ageing body
