Thanks Kallen ......that's a nifty small looking unit that AB posted up, I have never seen anything that small over here (NZ) so that gives me a something to start looking for anyway.I prefer to have everything on the table before I start a project so will start with that and continue onward and upward...................
Hey Kallen found what I was looking for on Trade me here in NZ...didn't know they existed until I knew what I was looking for thanks to AB and yourself Kallen.. $42 just what I need to help kick start the project will get all the gear together before I even contemplate cutting the guard...really like the look off AB's project with his snorkel so will lean towards that design but with a couple of ideas of my own ...can't pinch all AB's idea that's his signature...but certainly a design to get ideas from...something different is always good.......
Just try it out on some tin or corrugated iron mate. Just drill a hole in the middle of the area and then cut the hole.
I just used a drill on a low setting to the speed of the nibble was slow, easy to do mate.
Here's a basic video below of one in action, see how slow it can go.....Can't stuff it up mate!

Cheers AB......explains it all I seriously didn't even know small nibblers like that existed and when you start looking for one every bugger is selling them.... real handy to have in the garage...............:thumbup:
AB that looks awesome!
cant believe birds were trying to nest in it though!
Wildlife central out my way mate...I found a dead bell bird inside the chassis cross member the other day too....lol
Going to have to put a bloody bird net over my car each night...LMAO
My mate pulled a birds nest out of the plastic snorkel on his 60 a couple of weeks ago!
DIAL-A-TAP
How much differance does a 4" snorkel make?
Compared with what mate?Quote:

FanTapstic!
Sorry, Compared to a standard nissan snorkel, I have a 4" stainless snorkel an airbox getting made up as we speak
