GQ TD42 Turbo Wagon

G'Day Guys

Ive introduced myself in the new members section so no need for me to rant on. Anyway, basic specs are TD42 with ARB turbo kit and front mount intercooler. 4 inch dump to 3 inch zorst.

2 inch lift & 31s for now. Hopefully will have a complete iron man 3 inch kit on before xmax and a set of 33's, maybe some bar work depending on time.

Here is a shot of her as it is now.

im a bit impulsive too hahah, stopped by WOW this arvo and spotted a oricom uhf on special for $175.00 down from 4 hungy! so jumped on it and a aerial to go with it. Just got home and installed it, great unit so if anyone is chasing one they have the deal at all wow sight and sound stores.

Here is a few shots of the install. Came up nice and neat.

Ended up installing the main unit under the CD player in that little cavity,

nice one Dozer, will look forward to how it progresses mate

cheers clunk, just got back from a trip out kenilworth way and put the rig through her paces big time. I need to hurry up and get the tyres and suspension sorted asap as i had limitations all over the shop traction wise, still did the hill climbs we attempted but need a crap load of right foot which is allways fun. Thought i threw a rear spring by the sounds of one of the attempts, it made a $$ sound hahaha. all good though, back at home and only a few pin stripes up the side. Gotta love these rigs for durability.



Ill get some vids and pictures up later on.

Nice base to work from mate, looks very similar to my Maverick before I molested it. Same colour scheme and all.

Nice 'blank' canvas mate!! Look forward to the build as it progresses!!

Very nice mate, love the colour too!

Look forward to seeing her grow!!!

cheers guys,. The paint will be changing after xmas to something a bit more custom, not sure on the colour but airbrushing will be involved to make her into something trick.

Looking forward to the mods, just gotta sell a kidney as the last truck i sold had stacks of $$ invested but i couldnt sell it for what i wanted and lost big amounts of folding stuff. Oh well,

here is a few shots of the old girl on its first camping / 4wding trip out kenilowrth way.

Didnt get too many pics driving tracks with this trip as we were having too much fun getting out and about.
