Just bought a GU swb

Thought this might tickle the fancy of a few members here.
Been window shopping for a long time, but couldn't pass the deal up, hopefully its all ok.
Its only a 2.8 turbo auto, but I may bolt the TD42T in eventually.

All that sh#t aside :cool: , very nice truck mate.

If you know someone who has a fully built TD42 Turboed one and is interested in a kidney or left testicle, tell them I would be keen to trade. They have to get is shipped and registered over here for me though, now wont that be hard. :cry:

Hmmm, I just picked up a TD42 turbo last week to put in my GQ, but now I have this, it'll be kept and eventually put in (have a 2yr mechanical warranty so can give this motor hell till that expires).

After that, I'll do the transplant, but may do it sooner, so you may have a deal (I keep being told to grow some balls, so might be a good trade :lol: ;)

Will post more pics when I get it home and start the mods.

My main intention is to keep it for 2 years here, then make the move to oz and take over as a personal import. If I had found one at a reasonable price 2yrs ago, it would already be driving around the Gold Coast :cry:

Mad plan mate... the 2.8 might surprise you and not die perhaps ?

A fully worked turboed TD42 infront of that auto :cool: The Diffs would have 4.3 ratio's :?: Reckon that would feel just right with some 35's....

I could crap on for hours, really wish we had them here.

That looks very nice inside. :cool:

The 2.8 isnt that bad of an engine is it?

I reckon if you really want to drop the TD42 in it then sell the 2.8 as it is and get some money for it.

Dont expect mere proof to sway my opinion.
