What a grouse patrol! Awesome to see the amount of time and effort put into one of these and what you can do with a creative mind!
Got some good feedback for ya!
My mate (drives a Daihatsu F20 fourby) picked up the new 4WD Action magazine and rang me up and was blabbing on and on about this "f***in off its head Patrol" haha. He just about read the entire article to me over the phone, then said "when are you gonna do that stuff to yours?"
Just finished reading the article Scotty. What a beast!That'll show those Toyo lovers! Great to see tank in high gloss. Great amount of Nissanpatrol.com product placement too:-). I can see why you went for the name bigrig now, and it's nothing to do with the patrol!! LMFAO!
Well done, you must be stoked.
Ps, I gotta get me one of those Tupperware organisers! Lol

Used to get alot of those mags....... then went off them..........issue 184 is the first one ive brought in a long time, and its because of you bigrig...... (insert pic of scotts inflated head here!)
So did you look at the drivers side door console todd? its a bit creepy isnt it!?
MR Scott....Or "silky hands" to us mortals
Funny lads!!! lol
And don't hate me for my supple extensions!!! lmao
awesome job tho mate, you've put the effort in and its been recognised (and immortalised lol). Its great to have a bit of inside knowledge on a feature car too:) lol and deep down i know you feel the pain of a faulty lock-up converter lol lmao
The "Tank" looks sweet Scotty , It's one of the customs in the DVD that comes with issue 191 of 4wd action mag
Is that the latest issue?

Seriously, well done Scotty.
I wish I had the knowledge, experience and patience to do the things you've done to Tank.
Actually, when I grow up, I want to be just like you. PML.
Take care out there.

Ok im off to buy a copy. I still think you should have gone on the trip with Roothey, it would have been a classic.Quote:

Don't stroke it, TAP it!!!!.....
Well, been a while in settling things in and deciding on the next step for Tank.
Decision is made and now just to save up for it - snorkel will be coming off as well as airbox to be replaced by 4" stainless snorkel and custom high flow box from Richie (Radiusfab). That should sort the air restriction.
Next is water/meth injection to give more "shazam" (lol) and cool down intake temps. The bonnet grills will be going in at the same time to assist airflow through the engine bay to keep things cooler, and will be winding some timing back into the top end along with another dyno tune - aiming for about 220-230HP and 600+nm at the rear wheels ... that's a lot of stick from the old TB42e ...
All going to plan, I intend to swap out the diff gears (probably for 4.325:1's) and get super flex arms for the front end also ...
In the meantime, he needs some serious TLC on body and accessories, so will chip away at those first and getting it looking the business again - strip bullbar and powder coat, new flares, electrics (windows, door locks, etc), and of course a new torque converter if this additive stuff doesn't work ...
Looking for a new drivers seat if anyone knows of one going - brackets on mine have snapped and the 20l jerry can behind the seat is not quite cutting the mustard! lol. I'll put that requirement up in the wanted section also ...
He's looking weathered and worse for wear (especially after the last couple of outings) ...

With the lack of updates, I thought you must of sold TANK and bought a YOTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Are you putting the snorkel in the for sale section when the time comes?????
