Pajero or Jackaroo, which is better

[psycronic]

I had 3.0L V6 Pajero.... there is no way I'd ever buy one again. They may be nice when new but IMHO the engine/ driveline is built to last 250 000km tops. After that prepare to spend up. Talk to the 4x4 wreckers if you don't believe me.

I have, none of them ever see pajero's for wrecking

[bj42turbo]

Jacks come stock standard with pussy magnet, Pajero's come stock standard with the "experienced" lady in mind

as the poll stands so far: 34 soccermums, 8 offroaders

Arh Bugger I call my Missus a soccer mum when she drives the Jack, but she does get it in 4wd

i never said that it directly related to the poll, it just shows pajero vs jack lovers

[Loanrangie]

why didn't you include prado on the poll??????????????

Woolies are only on made roads, thats all prado's are good for.

[jop]

what about the soft top version i think its an import whats the difference between australian and the jap soft top

see post halfway down first page, they are called a j-top.









and they are freakin sweet

[short stuff]

whats better in the j top diesle or petrol mainly for towing 5m tinnie with 90hp onthe back because i have a feroza with 31s and its crap for towing

The V6 is very happy to rev, but most of the J-tops seem to be diesels. For offroad towing, I reckon I'd be happy with the 2.8td.

[chikoroll_]

from the stats so far: 80% of forum members are g@y

[jop]

Sorry for highjack
I have owned both petrol and diesel j-tops, but i have only towed with the diesel.
it pulled sweet with a fully loaded enclosed trailer up the gateway bridge stationary from the tolls.

But i must say the 3lt sounds tuff on full noise up a climb and has the herbs to stay with a 4lt jeep from the lights.

and before i get flamed by the jacka crew, i do like the later model shorty jacks, there was a sweet one around here and it was no slouch as well

[jop]

sorry did i say jacka crew, i should have said you chicko

soccermums, g@y - did a paj cut you off today or did you get dusted by one

[chikoroll_]

lol pajero's and jackaroo's basicly have the same engine in them (153kw's)
i just saw the funniest sight on a pajero, it looked like every other pajero are they afraid of being unique or something? like a baby patrol, they all wish to look alike


feel free to hijack my threads, i don't care

[j-top paj]

my J top pulls like a teenage boy
as long as its on boost (1700rpm and up ) its fine

i used to use it to tow my 14ft boat and gear around all the time and hardly even knew it was there half the time.

[baxy]

Hey Chicko,
I voted for pajero because jackaroos are only good for putting your Maxitrax against to drive over there roof.
And I drive a very unique Patrol and not much chance of me pulling your soggy Jacka out of the first little puddle that stops it!!!
Hmmm on that note I seem to recall a bunch of Pajeros (both long and short wheel base) not even thinking about chicken tracks while the Jacka came out chicken flavoured, oh that was when it was actually running???
Peace out!!

[chikoroll_]

lol a broken down jack? must have been a re-badged pajero, a jackaroo would never venture with Pajero's

Jackaroo's are wise, Pajero's just want to break things

can i please see a picture of the unique patrol? never seen one

Your sigline seems to say otherwise to its uniqueness

Cheers,

Hey Sean,
Its really hard to express sarcasm in a post but after owning and loving a zook and other fourbys I had to give in and get something unstoppable, hence the patrol.
The one on my signature got t-boned and now I drive a lime green GQ swb styleside ute.
Its a bit of fun stirring non-patrol owners and in my workshop I actually work on everything from landys, zooks, jeeps, pajs and jackas to patrols and tourer 80's.
I reckon my next tourer will be a county wagon with a crisp 5l holden motor.
I just harked up at the notion of calling people who voted for pajeros as p@@fs.
When the caterpillar engined jackas are running well they are a great tourer/mid crawler but out of the box those j-tops pajs are freakin awesome.
Each to their own however???
I will have to change my signature now??

so if we go to the standard pajero's (not the suzuki wannabe's) vs the jackaroo's which would you prefer




*J-tops have been evicted*

[psycronic]

If you removed the option for Pajero in the poll, you would get the result you want

[nastytroll]

havent had much to do with either but there was a bloke with a Jac that tried to keep up with us on club runs, he did ok most of the time exept when the front diff wanted to part company, happened a few times then he bought a gu.
on the otherhand there are alot of paj's raced in rally n motorkana style events n seem to do well.
I dont like either more then the other, but if you want your own oppinion said back to you just ask youself again.

[chikoroll_]

lol what i'm looking for is the opinion without the doled up versions in mind

...perhaps i should restrict it to 2 different models

[chikoroll_]

.s

[j-top paj]

*J-tops have been evicted*

HEY!
what did i do?

[jop]

so on your original poll -

we have a winner - paj

now start your model bidding war and shorten it till you win

[chikoroll_]

lol never, it just shows that the pajero's are a baby patrol, they can still be unique, but they are so common that you have to try too hard
Holden boy to the end!

now when is the next fake holden 4x4 gonna come out

[baxy]

OK, so if we are talking about standard pajero wagon versus standard jackaroo wagon for a tourer I would go the last of the jackaroos with the wide flares and a turbo diesel.
Oh and use it to tow my GQ around on its tralier!!!!!!!!
Ha ha ha ha ha !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jop]

nice spelling - you pissed this early?

is that a french trailer?

get voting

[bj42turbo]

I think the proof that Jacks are better than pajeros is when you come to buy a four wheel drive. As there is poo loads of Pajeros for sale but very little Jacks that is because no one wants to get rid of there Jack but no one wants a Pajero

BJ

[jop]

hey lets keep it to the 98 models, maybe then people will change their vote


as more paj were sold it will probably be useless comparing it in a poll, you like your jacks, most people do like the 4b they drive.
why compare them?

i thought you didn't like outers??

the jacks are all at the wreckers- couldn't resist

[chikoroll_]

lol only seen 5 in 12 wreckers, seen more than 30 pajero's at the same wreckers

i usually call first to check if they even have one

yea, outers is a bit yobboish, too much shit talking goes on here, too many people avoid this place cuz of it

why compare the 2? because i want to know the opinions of those who actually know about them... unfortunately this one got attacked with "i know a bloke who said they were...." and into a short wheelbase battle, neither help with what i am comparing


baxy, if you tow that GQ, you would be over the towing limit
