Gidday, been a reader for the last few months since I purchased my 91 nissan safari shorty.

Name's Gareth from northland in New Zealand, am a Boilermaker by trade, worked a couple years in Newman, WA.

Turboed, running 18psi non-intercooled (next on to-do)

32x11.5r15x10 feet maxxis buckshot mudders.

3 inch suspension lift (removed the stabiliser disconnector last week, seized, still running sway bar tho)

Large aluminium radiator - air con removed.

Has factory 24v winch.

Gday Gareth welcome aboard mate that's a nice lookin shorty mate

[Mrbeef]

Just bought a frozenboost 600hp setup. Can't wait to fit it and to have no worrys about towing the boat.

Also just replaced the head with brand new one. New valves new everything.

Cracked the old one on 3 4 and 5. Bores still looked and felt good so didn't dive too deep into the heart.
