    Put it on you girl. How many hundreds of cars including patrols have a front mount that covers that entire area. As with your radiator keep in clean and you will have no worries mate.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Matty...I'm wishing I had done this earlier mate. Following winnies egts on this trip the whole way was a huge eye opener of the difference in non intercooler versus intercooled.

    My EGT'S did drop quick after hills but needed to drop back a gear a few times on long hills and even on flat roads was a solid 50 to 100 degree temp differences.

    I am literally cleaning my car out this weekend and parking it in the shed to get this happening ASAP!!!

    Absolute must do mod!!!
