    Newbie in the sandpit

    Hi Guys, Escapee from fortress NZ to the sandpit that is Dubai. We’ve picked up a ‘97 Super Safari Y60 TB42 with only 400,000K so still running it in….

    It’s been a bit short of love under the bonnet but new water pump, timing chain, fuel pump and various seals and rubbers so far, more to come I’m sure

    Love the tank, turning circle of a train!

    Cheers for the info!

    Mike

    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.

    Welcome to the forum.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.
