Officially trolling today, for the third time.
Pretty much stock Y61 2007 ST (fanciest I’ve had) CRD. Has 124,000ks on it. Full service history. Was a SA Forestry’s car to start, then an ol bloke at work picked it up from auction with 2/3 SFA k’s
Mods it has
Ironman bar
TJM or maybe Ironman branded winch I think (haven’t looked properly)
All terrain goodies (65% remaining) weighing in at a massive 275 65 R17
Coupla Rhino roof rack bars ( just removed so I fit in the Wilson’s car park come Mondy morn)
Air bags in the arse
Leccy brakes. Me ol mate has a small van an bigger boat
Fancy tint (factory, last one was like living in a fish bowl)
Aim/Goal. Capable tourer
Mods to come. In no particular order. This won’t be happening quickly this time round
Scan gauge 2 tomorrow (kept the last one)
Catch can already ordered, so hopefully early next week
Snorkel
2” lift most likely go Dobinson again
UHF
Manual hubs
33 A/T’s eventually
LoKKa! In the front
maybe drawers etc etc etchttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=82386&stc=1

I know, right. It’s taken till a few weeks before turning 49 that I’ve grown up. Let’s hope I can keep the facade up when I see mud the first time

The mob at Western Filters are #1 when it comes to customer service. I ordered the wrong catch can kit and didn’t realise straight away. Couple of emails all sorted and in 3 business days it’s at my house. Happy happy customer http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=82397&stc=1

Well not quite the excitement of Daz's Y62 thread.
But I'm booked in Friday week for a remap session.
In the tuners words
"You'll get 35% more torque, the lag is gone.......Every gear pulls like a train...you will be blown away"
Might get the torque of one wheel of a Y62 :)

Dropped her at the tuner this morning and should be ready in a couple more hours.
I hate waiting for things………….

Yep she’s a totally different beast. Absolutely zero lag EGR valve programmed to stay closed. 22psi I couldn’t be happier TBH. He said I should get the manifold cleaned next time, that’s at a cost of $1300 FUCK but ay we’ll wait n see
Next little upgrade tomorrow :)

Took her for a squirt up the freeway to Mt. Barker yesty, 3.5 lph better than pre-tune and remap.
