intro

Hey everyone,

Hereby my introduction. I already upset some people enormously by posting a question before posting my introduction, sorry for that!
I have recently purchased a dec 1997 Nissan Patrol GU 4.5l auto. I am an international student and bought this car because I love going on road trips. I will do weekend trips and planning to do a trip along the coast of Australia (yes the complete coast). This is my first car, do not know anything about cars and I want to learn to do as much myself.

About the car:
The car is a 5-seater with dobbinson shocks and steering dampner, ride pro spring 3" lift, bull bar with winch, compressor, , dash DVD player, UHF, marks 4wd deep reduction in low range 47% and 4.6 diffs front and rear. (still have to read upon what this all exactly means). Lucky for me and my pocket, it runs on LPG and Petrol. At the moment it has MICKY THOMPSON 305/70/16 MTZ which I am planning on selling and buying some coopers AT's.

The big plan:
Getting a roof rack, installing a reverse camera, wiring up the dummy lights, constructing drawers and removable bed, etc. And because I am a student, it will all be on a budget.

I am not sure how much I am able to contribute but I am sure I will learn a lot here.
A photo of the car is attached.

cheers
Danny
