G'day guys,

At the end of 2020 I had an ARE intercooler fitted to my 2010 GU Patrol (the $696 one listed here - https://www.are.com.au/Inter/topMountIntercoolers.htm). At the time I was losing...

Thanks Growler. I was actually booked in at Ultimate Diesel Tuning here in Melbourne to get an ECU remap (which included a de-soot and from memory a modification to when/how the turbo is actuated)...

Growler - thanks for that - out of interest, where did you get the tune/remap done and how much difference did it make for you??

It's been a while - hope everybody has survived lockdown OK!!

I did a search but couldn't find any threads on fuel economy even though I seem to recall seeing one a few years back. Anyway, I've...

Aluminium handle with a steel head and aluminium, nylon, and brass striking faces.

A good mate of mine is pretty handy with a lathe. I was admiring the soft face hammer he had made himself and was stoked when he said he would make one for me for $80. His had aluminium and plastic...

I went with ARE cooling - $696 and it made a massive difference for me (very happy with it)

OK - I've got a 2010 GU Patrol with ZD30. When I got it it had 3" exhaust and a Tunit device and I think that's about all that has been done to the engine (except for a 2nd fuel filter). Anyway,...

Nice one Grant - if you're in Penrith then I'm guessing you did your Chocco time at Kingswood? I was there for 3 months in 1991 at 133 Sig Sqn as a part of my first year of OJT as an Electronic...

When I was wiring up my reverse lights today I noticed that up under the rear RH corner of the car there was a small electrical box and when I looked on the side of it it says that it's a tyre...

So I got the new ARE Intercooler in, the MAF Sensor is clean, and I have wound the TuneIt chip back down to 5.......seems OK for the short bit of running around that I have done within 5 km of home...

So I got the reverse lights on and finished wiring them up - had to muck around a bit as the cable entry into the back was in the rear RH corner but then I had to run it across to the LH side light...

These only draw half an amp and I measured it up today.....I am looking at removing the factory "recovery point" from under the rear doors, putting in 4 x grub screws to cover the holes, and then...

Funnily enough I am currently working as a contractor on an Armoured vehicle program. Towing and Recovery Points for armoured vehicles in Australia need to meet a DEF(AUST) standard but that refers...

I finally got my winch fitted up a few weeks ago after it sat in the shed for 3 months or so (although now we are in lockdown and so my only "recovery" so far has been to winch my son in from the...
