Hi All
Am new to the scene in OZ was big in it back home. Am buying GQ SWB locked up with LPG. Maybe too late to ask but have I done the right thing? Any and all advice is welcome.

gday mate...
welcome to australia. i hope the weather isn't what you expected. haha. i hope you settle in real well.
can never go wrong with a nissan. i got a short wheel base myself, currently building it into a comp truck. definitely need them on gas though, fairly thirsty. but otherwise a great motor. just watch the shorty on hill climbs...they like to wheel stand a little
once again, welcome. any questions you have there will be plenty of informative answers on here. i live on the sunny coast ((about 2 hrs away)guess u live in brisbane by your profile). look forward to wheel with ya one day.
cheers

Thanks Paul. I have heard good things about landcruiser park. I think that is near the sunshine coast. Well one can hope i dont have to drive too far because the longer you drive to a spot, the longer the walk home is...
