    Hi from Melbourne

    Hey guys, I've been around the forum for a while as a reader - time to start sharing.

    I'm a part owner of GQ wagon with lift, custom bars, quarter chop, 33s and TB42 on dual fuel. Why part owner? Cause my son bought it but needed help fixing (and paying for) it. But I'm enjoying it even though I don't get to take it out much.

    At present the Patrol is needing a clutch replacement and (I think) has done a head gasket. Compression is down on 5&6 and it won't hold pressure on a radiator test. Guess we'll pull it down and see...

    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.
