    Some new additions

    Have been kinda busy in the last few weeks with what little spare time i have. Anyway fitted new exhaust, Purchased a pillar pod and vdo pyro, boost and oil pressure gauges to fit. Also as the girl is into the horses have had a 5th wheel hitch mounted to the ole ute as well and this is by far the best way to tow anything you hardly even know its there even with its size. I have also fitted a superior rear coil brace to help with the extra load will get some pics next time im home.

    Nice rig mate! Those pillar pods look the goods (been thinking of getting one for my truck to keep an eye on Auto fluid temp, etc). Like the nice shiny zorst to boot!

    hmmm, having seen your other rigs in the flesh, do you find this one a little low?
    seems real nice and clean too

    Just a quick question, does the intercooler make much difference to the engines performace?

    Cheers!

    Yeah it is a little low but is a lot more comfortable and has far better road manners than the others gonna keep it this way as a bit of a tourer. Intercooler doesnt mae much of a difference really just helps a lot with EGT's I am going to remove the top mount and put a nice big 600x300x75 front mount on the pair of my patrols.

    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.

    Had a busy day today. A while ago I bought some HID projector kits off Mick. on this forum. Today I finally got the chance to fit and test so to start I will show pics prior to install the pics will go low beam, hi beam and hi beam with spots then a couple at the end of progress and front on. The result is worth the effort and looking forward to getting the ones in my GQ.
