Hello from Canada!

Attachment 61745Hello All!,
This is Popster from Victoria, BC, Canada. I found your site while searching for information about my '89 Nissan Safari Granroad. I've owned it since 2009 and it's been a fantastic "do everything" vehicle for me. I bought it from a business that was importing Japanese domestic market vehicles into Canada. There are no domestic SUV's with a diesel. I was looking for a Landcruiser, but found my Safari on the lot. It was very nicely equipped and had a much better engine. It only had 119,000 km on the dial as well. It now has just under 240,000 km and is need of some TLC.
I hope that by joining this site I can read through the various issues that members have discussed and find answers to my questions without asking too many of the redundant variety ;)
I live in an area where I believe there are only one or two vehicles like mine, so it's rare when compared to the number of Delica/Exceed and Landcruisers.
My Safari has been a great conversation piece, mostly due to the fact this is a left hand drive country. I hope to keep it going for as long as I can, maybe even make some improvements. Anyway, I hope you folks don't mind a foreigner as a member!

Hi Popster

Welcome, I married one of your lot, so I know your not all bad!
Are you driving it as a right hand drive? Has it a turbo?
My GQ is also 89 and if your is a 4.2 its probably getting close to run in.

Cheers
Chimo

G'day and welcome to the forum mate. Can you get some pics of your Patrol up?

Canada what a picture perfect place, anyway welcome to the forum.
ask anything you want along the way. Put up some pics if you like
we love pics, most of all enjoy

Welcome to the forum mate, feel free to ask any questions.

Yes, it is a right hand drive, and sadly no turbo. I found as couple of companies in Australia that sell an aftermarket turbo that is a bolt on affair. It seems like it would be a good idea, but I wonder if it's too late?

Gday mate welcome aboard
