i can see Jenkies ending up putting a 25 or 1j in a patrol :P with a lift kit and Mickey Thompsons, right? :/

25 / 1j wouldnt be powerful enough. however a GT28RS strapped onto the TD42 motor is a good option for lotsa torque. Guy from the patrol forums just bought a manual GQ shorty from VIC, with engineered VS 5.0 injected engine in it :D

and if ya lifting, its gotta be at least 2+2 (2" suspension lift, and 2" lifting blocks under the body) - that gets the back step up to

haha adrian, HE WHIPS HIMSELF!

hi all, im a heavy diesel mechanic by trade and was thinking about doing some weekend work from home such as cam belts, fitment of trans coolers, fitting of coilovers and various stuff like that. my questions are what do you all think is fair to charge for the above and does anyone need any of the above done?

i spend my days working on 27ltr twin turbo V12s and obviosly change my own cam belts and the like. any thoughts???

can hav a look around for ya dude

here's a good source of info too: patrol4x4.com

One thing ive learnt / read, stay away from the RB30S (carby) and TB42 (injected) petrol motors, they drink juice and do headgaskets something chronic. oh, and the ZD30 3.0 GU motor too, they're nicknamed the hand grenade

    • Unless you're fortunate enough to buy a newer car, getting an older style plate to match your name/car is difficult because they've already been purchased.  Unlike other countries, personalised plates are locked to the country and not region, so there can't be multiple versions of the same plate but with a different area code.  Hope that helps

    • That's why I said it is a meaningless term. Because there is more than one meaning that people can apply to it. When we said "highflow", that is exactly what we mean, and exactly what is done. In a highflow, they take your housing and machine them out to take bigger wheels, have a better internal profile, etc etc, and fit a new core with the different/better/bigger wheels.
