Whats this worth GQ TB42 Turbo
Posted: Wed Dec 15, 2010 12:19 pm
HI all,
Considering Upgrading my beloved GQ to a GU 4.2td.
I'm trying to do my budget but its hard to come to a realistic value of my current GQ as the money I have spent in the last 2 years is insane. I understand I'll never get even half of my money back, but I'm just looking to get a realistic value before I consider upgrading.
Heres a list of mods I can remember.
1988 Nissan Patrol LWB TB42
220,000 original kays (Third owner)
No rust at all very minimal dents, original paint
full service history up until I bort it (15,000kms ago)
Good condition interior (no rips or burn marks)
TJM dual battery kit (in cab switches)
ARB bull bar
ARB side steps and brush bars
9500lb winch
lightforce 240 blits spotlights
Uniden UHF radio
pioneer cd/mp3
black widow storage draws with fridge slide
Back windows removed and replaced with genuine nissan solid windows
Safari Tuff Clutch (10,000kms ago)
ARB front and rear air lockers (installed 5000kms ago, all driveline oils and bearings replaced)
Tough Dog 4inch lift panards, brake lines ec (installed 5000kms ago)
35inch silverstone extremes (all 5000kms old)
Motor
Garret gt35/40 (custom built by hypergear)
Tuned length steam pipe manifold
500x300 top mount intercooler
petronx ignitor
ice ignition module
ice ignition coil
2x gas research B2 converters
gas research throttle body
3inch exhaust turbo back
3x gas tanks (1x 120ltr at rear, 2x 20ltr either side of tail shaft
GU bonnet scoop
GU 3ltr air box
Dyno tuned at JPC, made 185rwkw.
runs out of gas at 185, needs twin lines from tanks to make over 200.
I'm sure there are things I have missed or forgotten, Nothing has been spared, skimped on or any corners cut.
This car has given me not one drama since I've owned it, and If its not practical to upgrade then I will happily keep.
