The exhaust is the best thing you can improve on a CRD. A chip with stock exhaust is a waste of money, with a bigger exhaust the chip really get the engine working nicely.
However, you might get a similar improvement with exhaust and a Cross Country (or other good brand) heavy duty intercooler, and Nissan would probably be happy to see an aftermarket intercooler there because they won't have a warranty claim to deal with when the standard intercooler tanks crack...
I have looked at getting the tiapan exhaust, intercooler and steinbauer chip fitted but that is a fair bit of money in the 3 so will probably just get a beaudesert or scotts rods exhaust then chip later on and yeah have heard some average things on Nissan intercoolers
Just get it, you won't regret itQuote:

Be very, VERY wary of a wounded Patrol, especially if Nissan Australia think they can blame a prospective warranty claim on a modification done by a non-Nissan dealer.Quote:

First up though I'd still be doing the pillar pod and guages, Mans gotta know whats happening under the bonnet.
Write down all you can think of before you do any mods, like fuel consumption etc.
Will be interesting to see any difference once you stop driving it with your foot in it, we all do it after chip and zorst.
Yeah would like both in time am still wary with the warrenty and need to save abit more as well, just paid for my 2" lift yesty and still new tires next week or so. Ordered the ultra gauge gotta go pick it up at post office soon then will see my average fuel and and what not before fitting lift next Tuesday arvo after work so got a few things before chip and exhaust.. With the ultra gauge would you still get the pillar pod?
Block the EGR, and fit a catch can, before modding the engine for more power.
EGR is the undoing of any engine, have a look at "flash gordons "pics and make your own mind up.

Yeah i deffinitely gonna have to look at some catch cans and see what one just looked at the cross country anti grenade kit just waiting to find out and see if it fits for the CRD not just the zd30
Hi there. Speaking of EGT gauges, what is a good brand and were is the best place to mount the senor?
