@ Winnie I brought this one a few years back for $99, you'd be surprised how many times you use it.
Great for making new bits and pieces too

You'd be surprised. I've had a really good run with Aldi stuff, tools, electrical stuff etc... For under $30 if the serve me 4-5 times job done IMO. Considering how often I'd use them it's worth it.Quote:

Might have to do the rear now.

Nah its always dug into the corners. There for giving more body roll. I never liked it. The 03 models i think onwards went to a larger oem sway bay than mine, and yours. I was given some later radius arms, i didnt realise this at that time, but the sway bar mounts on the radius arms are different too. So i put new bushes in the arms, getting them ready for a change over, i change them over, then go to bolt up the sway bar and the bloody brackets dont match up.Quote:

So i fabricated something up until i found the right bar. And one came my way, cheaper and better than OEM so im happy.
Id love to run the Superior Hybrib radius arms, much better setup than the Nissan style, and their Superflex bars, but thats 2k gone in arms and two bars.

The new full chassis

Yeah nice. What's the chassis, is that a jayco item or custom. Looks real good. Think the first thing I'll do is wire wheel back the chassis and paint. Probably put a treg on at some stage. Also look at the spring / height and tyre combo. Was it hard putting it on the new chassis?Quote:

Bought an air filter at repco today and he told me they are normally around $90 for main filter 4.2 diesel go patrol. I nearly fell over. But on sale for $45.
What sort of a filter is it mate ? Genuine nissan ones are around $35 from Nissan them selves... The round one. Unless this is a different variety you need ??Quote:

Now that is everything under my car is solid heavy duty...

Picked up a WiFi OBD2 scanner from Jaycar, got it for the boy Excel to find a U/S crank angle sensor.
Plugged it into the GU8 & it gives MAP, RPM, coolant temp, % load, MAF etc. all on my phone.
Might have to download (and pay) for a better app to go with it, the free one is a bit clunky.
