Hey Clanky, what injection pump setting do you recommend, does anyone else have a answer?

What brand bullbar are you running, had some problems on my trip round oz. Was towing a big van though. I have the base model ARB front bar, it has no air slots in the front. If you have this bar or similar try cutting some rectangular slots either side of the winch outlet to help with airflow. I ...

Point taken, and I am still to do vacuum tests etc, but I still am making with a DTS turbo set at 14psi and DTS top mount IC 86rwkw on standard pump and 100rwkw with dieselgas turned on at 500c egt using the prefilter housing. I only used the filter housing as I wasn't able to find a factory housing ...

Try calling Ryco customer service they have a couple of different listings for the GQ prefilter, try p/n HDA5783, there is also a K&N p/n E-3002 filter available but it has to come from US as it is not common in AUS, measure your old filter and do a search on K&N website, but at your own risk. As ...

Thanks muchly for your wisdom fellas, I think I will be calling on you Andy when back in Vic, but for now a question regarding rego and insurance when running the twin setup. What hurdles did you face with Transport as have just been on Patrol forum and saw thread on new lift regulations. Wonder ...

Weeman I am aware of my options in regards to a conventional setup, just exploring the solutions that are available. Approximately where does the power start with your roller bearing setup is basically what I'm asking. I have not driven a Patrol other than the one I own and need some comparisons to ...

Has anyone explored using a twin turbo setup on the TD42. I have heard of it being done with a Supra setup but am not aware of how successful it was. I am not familiar with twin setups, but would it enable the use of two smaller turbos that would spool up quicker than one larger one but still ...

Safari Tuff from NPC + new seal from Nissan = me heading north for winter.

Thanks for the input fellas have sourced a Safari Tuff and mechanic to change in Brisbane. Brad I only used this clutch on recommendation from the supplier and after actually using one for my application agree with your opinion as I was after the ST originally. I am sure the hardcore clutch would be ...

Hey, another question about clutches. Has anyone had experience towing heavy loads for extended periods. I am towing a 3t van around OZ with my GU TD42 and after 13,000km appear to have stuffed the clutch. It was a new Sunbury Brakes Hardcore clutch which has ceramic buttons on pressure side and ...

Sorry to bore with old problems but after looking at old posts does everyone with overheating probs with a td42 have post or pre 2003 Patrols as I was talking to an old fella today who has a 2003 factory turbo with 3" exhaust and a bit of a tweak. He tows a 21 ft van and has had no probs at all ...

Had the same problem, did you happen to get the draglink off ebay. Mine had greaseable ends and was flogged out inside 10000km. Boots were fine by the way. Can't remember exactly but was from seller in QLD.

Thanks guys for your input. Will not bore with details of transactions with certain manufacturers, but have had the chance to see PWR and ADC rads side by side and conclusion. If I had to go again I would go the go the PWR. The main reason being that you can use the standard shroud with the PWR but ...

Hey, has anyone fitted a Aussie Desert Coolers Aluminium Radiator to their GU. If so what fan did you use as the factory fan is bloody close. I am running twin factory thermos in front of condensor and still gets hot. Runs cooler with factory fan fitted but don't like how close it is. Does anyone ...

Have you any room to mount pump under the front passenger seat leave solenoids in engine bay and run hose out through firewall. Pick up power supply inside cab.

Hi all, has any one fitted drop boxes to a GU with 3" lift over standard. I need to address a castor problem as the diff has castor plates left from previous 6" lift (way too much castor). Have been told that boxes are only good for 4" up. Might be able to use the boxes with the plates still welded ...

Hey Tassie, which water wetter did you get, the red one or the blue as being in Tas going into winter without antifreeze could be risky. I am still waiting for my bottle as I ordered the diesel(blue) one. Try getting it to overheat before adding the WW then repeat the situation again after adding WW ...

Have you guys checked out a product called water wetter from a company called Redline oils from the US. They sell it at Autobarn. Have been recommended it by race mechanic. Check out site for Redline oils in US there is a AUS site as well. They claim it will lower engine temps. You can read all the ...

My apologies Patrolman, I have never laid eyes on one thought they were dohc, just checked manual. Was hoping Nissan may have made something for the 4.2 for a different market.

Hi, I changed mine 4 mths back on 99 GU. If your aircon is still working fine leave the hoses connected and drop compressor down off its bracket. You can then get at the pulley bolt and remove the clutch assy. If you want more info let me know and I will go into more detail. I think I still have ...

Hi, has anyone investigated if the 2.8 litre 4v head can be fitted to the TD4.2. Did Nissan ever build such a head for the TD42 for a different country.
Cheers.
