.........on the move
Just picked up the truck from Mr Nissan after they replaced the TPS, I dunno why I waited so long to get it fixed, its like a different vehicle now with a new TPS!!!
Funny comment on the work print out " someone blocked the EGR system and this will generate error codes" woops
Just had mine serviced and they said nothing and EGR IS BLOCKED.Quote:

Me too, very happy, sort of, except when they ring me and tell me one of my fog lights don't work so I say replace it. They then ring me back and say they have no stock so I say order it and ill pick it up on a later date.Quote:

But one of my SPOT lights (HID) doesn't work.
Mental note to self: fix HID SPOTTIES.
G'day Nisshead. Great looking Troll mate. How much did the Raslarr rear bar set you back? It looks really good on your rig.
Howdy NISShead! Awesome Looking troll mate! Well done... Ive gotten a 2004 GU IV (Downgrade from a 2012 Pathy, some call it an upgrade! LOL) and doing it up slowly... a couple of questions if you dont mind mate.. and please excuse my language/tech terms, i am a beginner at these!
1) The BullyDog Watchdog thingo you got, it connects upto the ECU doesnt it? So it eliminates the need for all gauges execpt for the pyro which i can purchase seperately yeah? Where did you get it from?
2) The reverse lights, did that come with the rear tyre holder?
cheers mate..
livey
Definitely an upgrade mate!Quote:

Yes the bullydog connects to the odbII plug under your steering wheel which connects to the ECU.I got it on Amazon for I think $204 but looks like they have gone a little. http://www.amazon.com/Bully-Dog-4040...ords=watch+dogQuote:

Also the wiring needs 12v not like the scangauge.
Just remember it is not compatible with a GU4 it will only work with the CRD engines. There are other devices that will work with yours mate.
The 10W 4" LED lights come standard with the rear bar.
Been a bit quite on any updates lately but I have finally fitted my new Brown Davis long range tank. 148l :)
I'm surprised how well it fits and it actually sits higher than the standard tank I think.
Bring on the Simmo!!!!!
Wow that looks tidy Kris! I have a Long Ranger and it sits down lower than that by quite a bit! Is that the Nissan Towbar in the pic? If it is then your BD tank is at Least 3" higher than my Long Ranger!!!!! For that Alone its a better tank!
It looks about the same height at the diff though? Hmmmm that depends on the lift though hey. I will take a couple of pics of mine mate and post them here for your interest.
@ MR i will get a pic of my long ranger as it sits the same as Kris's tank and its a 148ltr as well ! BTW Kris coming along nicely mate.
Cheers mate, The bar is a Hayman Reese bar.Quote:

That's interesting! I got my second hand and it came out of a GQ. That is very interesting!! If the GU one sits higher then fitting a GU LRA tank to a GQ with a Body Lift could see it sitting higher too! Hmmmmm? Cool! Post some pics please for sure! We might even go back to Kris's other thread about LRA v BD and post some pics to that threadQuote:

yeh MR mine was secondhand out of a gu. will double check and post a pic when i get home
I think I have figured it out! I have a Kaymar rear bar now and it has an integrated Towbar. So my hayman Reece has been removed and would have sat below the bar and in that space I reckon.
yep looking at the pics i can see that now
Yeah, the front of the tank sits similar to the diff but the back just looks lower couse of your bar, thats all
Nice setup mate. The watchdog you have will that plug into my 08 gu6 3.0crd?
It sure will mate, any CRDQuote:

Not all a mate, it actually teaches you to drive to obtain maximum fuel efficiency through throttle control and braking...its pretty goodQuote:

No problems mate but it's because Im lazy and my brain is too slow too convert boost pressures from KPA to PSI and wiring an extra 12v to the unit was a pain...LOLQuote:

hey nisshead, I noticed the 7inch navigator, was this the all in one job from Nissan? I have one of the Nissan jobbies in my 2013'. Trying to find out if I can update for topos like oziexplor, or hema map type setups

Single flywheel heavy duty clutch is in and feels great!!!
Feking Nissan wanted $4600 to replace the old one after 30000km...lol
Conversion and new clutch was 2000 bucks and it feels sooooooooooooooooooo much better...lol

Farking horrible shit that Loveday mud!!!
gnarly build thread mate! rear bar work looks awesome.
thats repulsive only getting 30,000 outa your clutch. i am currently dealing with the folks at nissan because they put a cheap dmf in instead of genuine. i didnt have to pay for labour though as it was under warranty so only paying parts. with a bill for 4600 id be straight onto the single. i will be going single next time when the car is older as i didnt want the rough driving.
with your single install can you feel the low rev shudder/vibration? whats brand u go with?
cheers mate
So far it feels great, no noticeable shudder at all but I haven't really driven it a lot. All I can say it feels like there is instant pull from take off unlike before.Quote:

They have that option, it's a bloody clever idea.Quote:

I can get it now if I wanted to for $400
- + $450 Per Swing Away choice of Tyre Carrier or Double Jerry Can Holder
