    It would be more heat out for the rear surely?

    I also removed the rubber weather strip below the wipers underneath which opens it up a lot more too.

    There is an easy way to prove which way it is going. Do you have some wool?

    I may be able to cut up one of Leah's jumpers or jump the fence with a pair of scissors and take advantage of the neighbours sheep in his paddock down the road.

    Unfortunately I am unable to drive at the moment

    What's the plan Stan?

    Cut some short lengths of wool from 50-100mm and tape them onto your bonnet/windscreen. Tape them so they face the way the airflow might go. Remember to alternate which way they face and the lengths across your bonnet/ windscreen area.

    My guess is air flow in. Like the ram air revears cowls on 70's American muscle cars

    I think I will agree but the air will flow up the windscreen at low speed then from around 20km/h it will start to draw in.

    But will that stiil draw out below 20km, would it still be a lower pressure under the bonnet?

    I reckon hot air expands and rises and at low speed it would be a vent out. I agree there will be vacuum at higher speed but I reckon it will be around 50kms/h
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    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.
