hello ppl's i currently own a NF pajero and of late it seems to hate 4wd as its always in the shop,so im out looking for something abit stronger more durable etc and i know of a mate who's selling a old FJ series 4wd it requires some work but with a v8 already installed etc,nothing that cant be fixed..
what you guys/gals think
scrap the pajero as my 4wd vehicle and turn the FJ into my new toy or should i stick to the pajero(atm pretty stock etc is getting 31's and a 2inch lift soon)
i'll post pics of what the FJ is like..
opinions appreciated
cheers

55s are so ugly they are cool
That one looks like a bit of work though.

if your 90s Paj is regularly in the shop, where will a 70s toy be.
If you can't fix it yourself steer clear of that old stuff.

The cruiser looks like a big heap of crap that'll give you even more problems. Sounds like a false economy to me.

i knew i should of got a patrol but went for the prettier at the time pajero
but you get that
i have decided to keep the pajero
ditch the idea of yet another project and gunna see what comes up in the form of a patrol
pajero is doing fine just minor issues etc but when doesnt 4wd cost you money?
anyways pajero is in the progress of being lifted and having some 31's put onto her,then next year i'll trade her in for a better model or just outright buy another 4wd (def patrol or something along those lines)

are you married?
do you have access to welders, tools etc?
do you have room to keep the 55 while you fix it up?
do you have an endless supply of cash to throw at it?
if you answered no, yes, yes, yes, buy the 55 they are phat!
if you answered yes to the first one and no to any of the others, stick with the paj.
because if the answer is yes to the first one and you have that heap of crap on the front lawn rusting away the answer will soon turn to a no for the first one.
hope that made sense.
