@ Growlers... Yes i heard the same too.. Someone said that Safari had better filteration and it also has an outlet valve for any rain water that might creep in .

Hi mate, have a look at http://www.snorkels.com.au/p/530493/airflow-snorkel-kit-nissan-gq-patrol-and-ford-maverick.html My brother has one and it looks good.
Have you thought a bout making your own stainless steel one? They look so much better and the price would be about the same.

Hey mate out of the two you are looking at I would recomend the safari as the quality of plasitic out ways what others out there are and the air ram is one of the best out there
A custom stainless steel one is almost the same cost

I did a 4" stainless one for nealry 200 but i would go with they safari the flow the most air out of any other plastic snorkel and i reckon they look better too. I rolled my GQ onto its side didnt damage the safari snorkel at all just pushed my guard in so they are tough as well

Hi Guys!! Thank you for the feed back... Unfortunately the Carby on the Gq has been playing up after the High country trip and the battery stopped charging too.. The electrician reckons i need a new battery and the mechanic reckons i need to get the carby reconditioned... or get a new one... So i guess all my snorkel $$$ are going somewhere else...
