    wat up all .just a liitle about me and my patrol

    hay guys ,so I've read plenty of things on this site ,I recon its the best reference online for anyone with a patrol .
    a little about my rig.
    its a 1998 gu 2.8td with 212000kms.i bought it for $5000 off a m8 who was moving and needed to get rid of it. its pretty stock but it does have a 2 inch body and suspension lift ,maxis big horns ,arb bulbar/side steps .
    lol, now my list of to do's negative about 20 grand
    installing Boost and Pyro gauges plus one more (not sure what for yet )on the drivers side pillar (so triple gauge).clean the intercooler, remove the intercooler butterfly and block the EGR .
    I went to clean the maf sensor cause the old girl was blowing a fair bit of smoke and hesitated to rev from about 700 to 1100 rpms .And I undid the for screws pulled it out and realized that id broke it ,goggled it and found a post saying old m8 got quotes for $1200(genuine Nissan maf sensor) 800 for another etc.my face melted ,my heart sunk ,feeling sick as I kept looking online and after a while found a mob on ebay selling new ones for about $70 .any way I was pretty stoked with that .I also want to put a catch can in ,but the only one I can find that is recommended is the pro vent 200(which is pretty pricey ,still looking for an alternative) .I'm also looking into a boost controller but not sure wat to go with yet(a simple in-line boost controller or an electric one) ,I've been reading that 14 psi is safe to run on the rd28tdi .then probably get a 3"dump pipe and a 3" straight thou . And then chip it ,im thinking a Donator box but ill look into that a bit more when im ready for that.
