1999 Nissan Patrol GU, set up for touring

1990 Nissan Patrol GQ, set up for competition

1993 Ford Maverick (Nissan Patrol), standard and for sale

If you think performance cars can suck money, try 4WD's!

I'm trying to get rid of one of the 4WD's, another is my competition vehicle and the newest one is my wife's company car which we can't offload until the lease is up. That is why the GTR has to go too, plus the GTR is kept in the garage so it is always blocked in by the 4WD's on the driveway and never gets a run - about 3500-4000km in the last 10 months.

Free Bump! Nice car here guys, experienced first hand, would have bought it myself had I not had my heart set on a white v-spec, Good luck with sale. Definately a good price, not a mark on the body anywhere!

71LLA,

This might seem like a wierd suggestion... but why don't you keep the car and get rid of the wife?

My old man faces this problem everyday, he's in NZ right now with the old lady... hopefully he leaves her there :)

Nice car, and for $36,000 + warranty I can't believe it hasn't been sold yet.

Heaven knows if I wasn't just about to raise a family for myself (g/f is 28 weeks pregnant), I'd buy it off you in a heart-beat!

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
