Down in Victoria we dont have annual checks, but police have roadside
RWC and RBT stations for major weekend holidays, and sometimes just random checks.
It pays to keep your Patrol looking clean and not cop bait as we call it

maybe time for a bigger turbo???????

Hehe, it would be so cool with a bigger turbo in it! but i have heard that these RD28T are weak and get easily hot so they are not suitable with an bigger turbo? is this true?

you think the RD28T gets hot.........??
try the TD42.......... when they get hot they go BANG, ask Doggy

i have done some research about this engine and all i can find is issues about overheating and blowing cylinder heads. i have also seen the turbo conversion from original to Garret TB2527. i think i will mount new original, so at least i can get these small 115 hp back at least :P.

same as the TD42

I found with mine
new fan
new clutch fan hub
new water pump
Nissan Coolant
new thermostat - 85* opening
and a full flush and "rod" of the core

thats stopped mine from over heating - so far..............

Good news! I've got the body safely in the garage so i can start to weld in the new rear fenders
