    Thumbs up My intro just brought 2

    Hi Guys and gals.
    My names Russ, I'm from brisvegas, I'm 25 and I'm a diesel fitter. I am a pretty keen Toyota fan but just brought my first serious forbie and got a patrol. Its a Nissan gq 90 model with a td42 manual has done 555000 ks and iv done a compression test all at 430 psi loving it! But it wasn't the real deal has a bit of cancer and couple of big dints. So soon browsing eBay I picked up a gq 1992 TI with a auto tb42 with gas. So ill be doing some work to get 1 on the road and possibly parting some things out.

    Welcome mate. Well you have got a pretty good choice there.. go a fuel conserving td with mild performance or choose the petrol hungry, tyre stripping tb..
    Throw up a build thread as we all like spending others money...

    Hey mate - welcome to the forum. Great idea - and I believe Nissannewby is also a diesel fitter on here from North Brissie and has a couple of Patrols he's sorted. Enjoy the forum mate.
