    Turbo in a Blink mate. the gain you will get from the turbo will more than outweigh the gain from the 4.6s.

    You could just buy the centres and fit the 4.6w but i reckon they are a bit tall for 33s to be honest and you'd be pushing your NA4.2 into a higher rev range at cruising speed.

    The turbo will just unleash the thing mate. Not like a petrol at all. a turbo on a TD42 is just like opening a window and letting fresh air in. all of a sudden everything is a little easier. You will Never regret it.
    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.

    Definately turbo mate. Did it to my NA TD42 and will never look back. Was a gutless lump of dead weight until I bolted a turbo onto it.

    Can't believe you're even considering the GU diffs Kallen? If you want better brakes then do the twin piston caliper upgrade for a fraction of the cost.
    4.6 will be too high for 33s anyway.
    Turbo for sure.
