Hi all,
Unfortunately it's been quite a while since I've had an opportunity to post on here,
but I thought I would share this with you all,
on the 28th May 2013 at 10:26pm my 97 GQ celebrated a major milestone it clocked over from 499,999 to 500,000 genuine kilometers. This event occurred at a place called Rock Flat(half way between Cooma and Nimmitabel).
And it is still going strong and set for its next half a million k's.
Gee I love my truck.

Thanks 3dogs,
I changed the head last year as there were dramas caused to the old one by the idiot who had installed the turbo and put in a new gearbox as the other one was due for a rebuild, other than that it's been all good.
Most of the work I've had to do to get it up to scratch is from the fact the bloke who had it before me was a butcher and did crap work and stupid things.
But I've got that sorted, now I'm just waiting for the old tyres to wear out as I want new rims and tyres, new winch compatible bar and the truck will be all good.

Nissan probably sacked the engineers that designed the 4.2
