Newbie introduction
Hi all,
I've been a lurker on her for a while. I bought my first 4x4 a year and a half ago. It's a mint 97GQ 2.8L turbo diesel. I have since blocked the EGR and have fitted a safari snorkel. Next on the list was an exhaust then a dyno tune, a 2 inch lift and some bigger black Kings wheels, however it has just done the head at 322.000km. So now re-assessing what to do as the 2.8 was slow. I have a few ideas. I'll start another thread about that.
Looking forward to learning a lot. Plenty of good info here.
Cheers
Rick
Here are some pics of the old girl before the snorkel was fitted.
