Welcome mate, surely the best forum on the net. If you need it, you can get it, if you want to know it, just ask it.
If you want to find it, go to the search bar for a universe of information.
Enjoy the sights and sounds of the greatest show on earth.

I got say mate the trol is a much nicer rig to drive and it has some decsent power there. I had a power chip in the 120 series prado pre common rail
and this thing got it covered so i'm keen to fit one to the patrol and see what it delivers.

Hey Shina,
From what i've seen with the mates the trol is better all round from a 4wd perspective, but i've just noticed you've got a crd, so a) you're a lucky bastard as ive got the last of the di's and b) you'll never look back.

They may not be as spritely as the 120 d4d's (in std trim) but they're definitely more off road capable.

Look forward to reading about your experiences.
