    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.

    Pretty sure Mrs MB's 4.2TD 'Redarc' EGT guage is broken. Keeps beeping and flashing above 550 Degrees when flogging it without an IC :-)
    Are Redarc's even slightly worthy or have we been dudded :-( ?

    Prefer and currently fitting VDO. Pyro probe and fittings are of good build quality and gauge has a clear plain face. Check the port thread in dump pipe, if one exists as supplied, to be compatible with thread fitting on EGT. VDO has 1/4"NPT(m) fitting but my exhaust dump had two ports (EGT "1/8"BSP & Oxy "18mm x 1.5mm). I decided to use large port and found a reducing bush adaptor SS 18x1.5mm to 1/4" NPT. Secure Fit.

    Running the McNally jobbie in mine. Boost is easy to read on the fly and so is the EGT read out.

    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
