G'Day mates! My name is Matt and I'm an American expat living and working in Siberia, Russia! Am currently in the city of Krasnoyarsk, but have plans in the works to move to a more remote location and needed a reliable vehicle to get me there. Hence, I just bought a 1999 Patrol Y61 GU 2.8L and am reading up as much as possible to learn what needs to be done to get the most out of the vehicle. I am a complete newbie with a Patrol (and with diesels for that matter)
I'm just getting into the vehicle to see what has been done for mods, but by the initial looks, everything is stock except for the 33" mudders. I know the tuning will be slightly different from what you Aussie's do, since I will be modding it for cold weather, but there shouldn't be too many differences. As I'm completely new at this, I have no doubt I'll be asking a lot of questions and seeking advice for a lot of things as I continue the work. Really excited about being here and looking forward to interacting with you blokes.
