Hi All,

My name is Ben and I have just purchased a 2012 gu8 dx auto with 35,000kms.

Now that I have traded up from a 2011 jimny to a larger family off-roader I thought it will be appropriate to join the forum and share stories with fallow patrolers.

Planned mods:
Lift kit already done - old man emu
Bullbar - looking for one which is winch competable
Sidesteps, UHF, spotties, rear bar with twin tyre carrier.

I have done a bit of reading and will most likely do the catch can thing unless someone would advise otherwise.

Look forward to sharing stories with you all.

Cheers Ben

Hi Ben and welcome to the forum, catch can will help keep your MAF sensor cleaner. so a good mod
I have TJM bull bar and TJM outback side steps which IMO look great

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 went with ARB for bull bar, scrubs and side sliders on my GU8.
IPF Nissan spotties still.
I haven't done any NADS, but have fitted the DPchip and 3" exhaust
Before and after.

G'day Ben, welcome aboard. Yep there's plenty of info and knowledgeable people regarding the "catch can thing" which is called the "NADS" mod (pop that in the forum search bar).
Look forward to sharing and hearing your stories too mate

Thank you all.

I am from Liverpool NSW. I like your rigs looking impressive.

I have done few quick mods since my initial post, including Roo systems rock sliders, Roo systems tent rack, Roo systems premium bullbar, and also fitted electricals like hid spotties, 22" led bar, GME UHF, as well as boost gauge and pyro gauge.

I still need to do Nads but wanted to see what the car is doing with the gauges now fitted.
