    Well, update time. After a lot of umming and ahhing about whether or not to Keep or sell the patrol (financial reasons, I never want to sell this thing) I finally got backpayed for months of work, all up about 6 grand, so that has meant I can definitely afford it! Only problem is i still haven't completely paid it off, and when dad gave me the loan, his one condition was i couldn't buy anything for it until i had paid it off completly (Incentive to pay it off quickly if you will.)

    As such, the only mod has been to put a steel bar on it, as I straight swapped my alloy one with a mate who was selling his gq. (and a new stereo cause the stock one was crap, don't tell dad)

    But I have done a but of fourbying again (so good to take it for a run, as my other one has been off the road for so long that i haven't been for a run in months!)

    Anyway, thought i'd share some pics.
    And a planned mod list once i get the coin.

    Take it to a diesel specialist, have the turbo overhauled and the engine Tuned
    4" lift
    33's or 35's, havent decided yet
    Millweld winch bar
    Winch (Preferably warn, but $$$)
    Rear quarter chop/rear bar
    Sliders/Brushbars
    Dual Batterys
    UHF
    Snorkel (If we have enough 3''s/s pipe left over at work from a job we are doing i may have one soon)
    Fridge
    Rear drawers
    cargo barrier
    comfier seats
    boost and egt gauges
    3" Straight through exhaust
    lightbar/spotties


    and much more i cant think of at the moment. You know How it goes
