giday guys

what sort of fuel econimy would this return and how pricey would parts be .
It looks good and im taking it for a run on saturday. what do you think and is there anything I should be on the lookout for?
thanks guys

Mine gets about 12.5ltrs per hundred k's driving it to work and back (running 31" MTR's), doesn't seem to make much difference if it's on the highway or not. Other than the usual Paj problems (dud ecu's and split CV boots) there's not really anything that seems to go wrong that I've seen.

search j top and have a look at past posts.

i've had a 92 turbo diesel and still have a 95 3lt and love it.

look for factory rear diff lock pushbutton in front of gearstick and test it, also behind gearstick on console it may have another pushbutton for suspension settings and if you are lucky another for height control.
