PBK's GU 2000 3ltr

Hi All

I have been around this forum doing R&D for a SAS -however plan changed - Anyhow, I started 4by in a D22 Nav - bought stock and modded it until I realized that IFS will not suit to my liking. So sold the Navara last weekend

which I bought the GU last weekend 20th of July 2013 - it is stock apart from DPCHIP, DVD player, Roof Rack/Roof basket/ UHF 40 channel.

After buying the GU - it was a bit Smokey - so straight away done a lot of research and found possible solutions - so last Sunday we've done a good service - all fluid flushed and changed - all filters changed - straight away improved the smoking - however I will also do a oil catch can /MAF change and EGR Block.

Today we completed the Suspension setup - 3" lift Kit Ultima shocks and King Springs, Gab Steering Damper and Tough Dog Front and Rear Panhards - 15x8 -22 White Steel wheels and 33" M/T bighorns, extended brake lines, finally caster bushes changed.

So so far I have - car is serviced and mods are

Looks good, now your going to have to change your signature :)

Great looking rig now, more than capable.

Thanks All - will keep updating this thread
in couple of week will be installing my Snorkel
Wire up Drive Lights and Winch

Quick update to every and I will take photos later this arvo

Driving Lights mounted but wiring isn't right - so not working still :-)
Snorkel is in - bought from Tigerz11 - fitting is actually nice and cannot complain for $89 bucks Brand New
and last weekend my EGR plumbing broken off and Dump pipe came off the back of turbo - th exhaust system
is the original back from the factory so cannot complain about it. So then yesterday I am forced to do the
whole dump to back system out of plan - took it to Liverpool exhaust - so now I am driving with new Diesel Cat
3" all the way to the back with couple of muffler so it is a bit quiet for the mrs and our son. Also while in the shop
Jimmy from Liverpool Exhaust blocked my EGR.

I will take photos later on - so my next mod in my list is to Wire up my drive lights properly - install the Diff Breather extensions
rear extension brake line and then mount my Winch

Looks good clean the MAF first might save you some $$$$
SCA sells MAF cleaner, just make sure its dry before you re-install

Looking good PBK. Keep the posts coming.

nice straight good looking patrol, should bee more than capable to tackle the tracks. keep it comin

I just got the Patrol serviced again

This time changed all diff oil/tc oil and gearbox oil
Also extended the rear brake lines and changed fuel filter

However found another gremlin in the patrol - I got a slow
Coolant leak so she is booked on Monday to get this fix might
Get my mate to check the oil leak as well then change belts

Hopefully all this servicing will make my patrol more healthier
And give me more Kms out of this Zd30 Di engine

Will post photos later

How the patrol looks now and bottom is where the coolant leak is
