Outer Limits 4x4 Board

G'day, I'm looking at upgrading from an ageing Import Nissan Safari to a HDJ78 with IHDT-FTE. However ive discovered that they are only rated at 122kw where the the HDJ100 with the same engine is rated at 151kw. Can anyone tell me what is required to get the power level anywhere near the 100 series ...

I bought some yesterday, and added it 200:1 to the tank. only done 30kms so far so will monitor it over the next month or so and post back if i find anything.

looks cross between a ford explorer, and an LC200.

think it will take some getting used to.

Gday, The PTO on my import Safari no longer free spools. It did when i first used it. Now it doesnt matter whether the winch hub in on free or locked, it will winch in and out under power locked or not? I have checked the oil levels in the gear section and they are fine. What could be wrong with the...

I am looking at the same thing, have a high roof Safari. Have a great tent, but sometimes want to be able to crash in the back of the car (like if im pissed lol) its not an ideal solution for long term stuff. but its just making use of the vehicle that you have. check out this patrol4x4.com/forum th...

Very neat looking conversion!

Would be interesting to drive i imagine.
