    G'day and welcome to the forum mate. In answer to your question, "both". They are a great vehicle but need to be tweaked to show your own personality.

    Hi Rob, welcome.

    You can spend as much as you want on it, you can keep it running & just do the basics or like most of us, you'll get bitten by the bug and start spending.

    I'm guessing you've never realised that 4x4 in uppercase is $X$!

    A BIG thanks to you all ! I want to start with a few engine mods ie egr catch can / better fuel filter /boost gauge (I have read oil filled is the best) / exhaust temp gauge / is any brand of fuel any better than another I have been using BP ultimate in my previous vehicle. I never let the tank get below quarter full the servo I go to is in an industrial area so it would have a good turn over I would think .Any info would be great.:Thanks
