Yeah mate i did. Red lining it..going down goldfirlds highway so it was roadtrains.
Probably be alright with an after market turbo and exhaust.

Also found out the speedo was out. We had two patrols and a recent model hilux with the satilite tracking stuff.
Apparently 110 on the speedo was actually about 90.

Seen the latest 2013 nissan pajero hahaha.

It would be pretty heavy that ute though I imagine? The 3L normally goes pretty well.

Every vehicle we got is modified in some way

Yeah all 3.0 had a turbo. It probably has a throttle stop or some sort of lockout device on it. I work with blokes who have the same utes but privately owned and the crd 3.0 will suit on 130 with 700kg on the back
