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.

I am never adjusting a wastegate ever ever ever again!!!!
Getting that arm into the correct position in the right part of the actuation tension is a frigging nightmare!!!
Long story short you need to extend the arm 15 mm and put a new plate on.
Trial and error near killed me but its done!!!
So its running?

All plumbed ready to go!!!
Matty, I need longer pressure hose from turbo to wastegate, wtf!!!!
I'm 20mm short as I've lowered it down a fair bit...lol
So I can't start it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bloody oath you can start it. Just watch your boost gauge.
It only needs to be small vac tube even some fuel line if you have some floating around. Just block it where it comes out of compressor outlet.

The previous owner of the turbo used no clamps but had the hose cut exactly maximum fit inbetween the two barbs so I have no clamps unfortunately.
Anyways as much as this sux I need to head up to the house. My turn for kids!!!!!!
Tomorrow gents tomorrow 100%
