Outer Limits 4x4 Board

i just seen some pictures of a swb GU? is this a custom chop or did they come out somewhere else in the world?

search is your friend. yes they make them from new.

have done for 10 years.

same as the GQ as far as the chassis goes, so they still want to roll over as often as you'd expect.

blimmin heck...i'm shocked...you mean we have something you guys don't it's normally the other way round.
Plenty of lwb 4.2gu's here, i've seen lots of swb gu's around christchurch but i assume they are 2.8's...can't say i've taken much notice - too distracted with the gq!

I did some work on a GU shorty last week, It was a white 05 with the ZD30, Import from Japan I think, cheers

so can we buy one in nz and ship it over here(australia)?
what would have to be moddified if anything? anyhelp would be welcome.

Well i suppose the aussie dollar is higher than the kiwi so that would offset some of the cost . Having said that a mate shipped his 89 safari shorty with 35" swampers, 2 + 2 lift. arb bars etc to Perth last year with no probs that i know of, cost him $4500-5 grand kiwi i think. (i am still waiting to hear how he got on putting it over the pits though etc).

SWEET!!! Thats not bad ay, AUD$500 to get one shipped over - sweet as bro!

thats all good that you can get them over here but can you legaly get in regoed in queensland or any other states in australia

4wd_pig wrote:so can we buy one in nz and ship it over here(australia)?

bull shit i can get one regoed
but i have to get handcontrols fitted before the thing comes across then it can be regoed as a specialneeds vehical

thats a wired and interesting way of getting it regod. is there a simple and more legit way avaible

as far as I know if the vehicle did not come out with that style of body or engine it can be done, see skyline, surf, turbo 300zx, early evo's, some of those turbo pulsar thing etc and have seen the evo pajeros as well, I dont think it would be hugely difficult, I was talking a few years ago to mike from ns 4wd

btw NSW regoed evo paj on my stand at 4wd show a couple of years ago

in Qld.. They just look like a living photochop to me.

While in Holland last month saw a SWB GU and GQ both HIGH roof versions!! like the old LWB GQ's. Never seena high roof SWB or GU before.
The GU had 4.2td badges but couldn't be bothered looking under it to see if it actually was one

I reckon the high roof models are the ugliest thing i've ever seen, swb would be worse.
