Beep Beep Beep.

The only thing on the turbo that fitted was the turbo to the exhaust manifold.

Nothing else fitted.

So after the public holiday on monday (Queens Birthday long weekend) there shall be a phone call made and me cracking the shits.

Do bother !@#$%^& around with aftermarket turbo's. Ge a Hi-flowed factory one as it bolt on and everything fits no worries.

If the turbo blows in the middle on no-where, I can pick one up from any dealer in Australia.

Grrrrr, !@#$ I hate bad customer service.

 

Haven't updated this in a while.

 

Picked up a ARB rear bar to.

Getting powdercoated the same as the bullbar though.

So will be on in a few weeks.

Done a few other things.

Will have to grab a few pics.

SNORKELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

 

I have no idea what that says on that website.

Anyways, my snorkel is a Airtek unit.

Nissan Australia just rebadge them. Cheaper then what TJM want aswell.

Its a snorkel for the CRD YD25DDTi.

The ZD30 snorkel keeps the Pre-filter.

The YD25 snorkel pisses the Pre-filter off which is hard to seal anyways.

 

Still haven't got my rear bar done yet.

Been doing renovation's, our bathroom hasn't been able to be used in 7 weeks.

The !#$%wit builder and tiler stuffed the job up, kitchen is 3/4 done. Waiting for the bench top to be done, its a cashie. So waiting on the Stone Mason.

Ordered a UniChip, should be good for 140kw and 430Nm of torque.

Should give a D40 a good run.

 

2 VDO gauges to go in, the Autometre gauges I have now are alright but VDO shits all over them.

 

Great thread. Enjoyed reading about your truck Dave and your photo's are superb, very jealous.


Cheers.

 

Thanks mate.

Will spend monday giving her a clean up.

Will grab some more pics.

Cooper AT3's on now, great all round tyre.

Combined with the Bilstiens, holds the road like glue.

Thinking of removing the Lovell Leaf springs and selling them, its to stiff in the back.

Spilt a bottle of injector cleaner on the backseat, the **** bloody stinks.

 

Dunno if I added this into this thread already.

Had to rotate the clutch and gearbox.

Got a new intercooler kit on its way, never been happy with the way the ASE kit went through the bullbar mount.

So ordered a new mount (Currently in the tray) ready to go on when I get my new kit.

Winch will be going on at the same time.

 

Just send the winch kit to me, you know you dont want it, you KNOW I do. :mrgreen:


(Jay, Spirit)

 

Id hate to know the shipping price for sending it. Haha.

 

Traded the Nav for a Isuzu Dmax.

Will have it in 2 weeks.

Thats a couple of steps up from a Great Wall then :lol: :eekout

 

The Navara has 277,000km's on it now, I have no doubt it would do another 200,000km's. The ZD30DDT is a great engine.

I didn't wanna get stuck doing a clutch ($2000 fitted), injection pump and injectors (atleast $5500 fitted), gearbox has still done those km's, rear diff too. I will say though, the D22 gearbox is the best gearbox I have ever used. Love the feel of it.

Oh and I am over the torsion bar front end, I fitted Sax leaf packs. Worst decision I have made with the D22. Absolute rubbish, the rear rides worse then a model T Ford.

Plus I have a 1 year old, instead of putting in the anchor points. Ill put that money into a new truck.

Oh and Dave, I saved $8000 off the Dmax. Rrp is $53850, got it for $45,850.

Brand spanking new, December build. Top of the line, LS Terrain.

Warrenty shits all over Nissan too, a few mates have the previous model Dmax and they love em. Constant 8.5L per 100km's.

 

Hard to argue with figures like that :awesomework Know how your feeling, The Beacon has done double those km's, though the gearbox, injector pump & a few other things where done about 18mths before I bought it (I've had it 3 yrs now), but is still getting on now. My biggest gripe at the moment (at least with mine) is the front end, the IFS just can't handle what I want to do with it, so I have to look at what I want to do with it, wheater I SAS it, sell it and build another. Problem is, I'm pretty partial to the Nav's.

 

Considered a QD32 powered series 1 D22.

Updated version of the TD27, bulletproof engine.

 

Yeh had thought of turboing a QD32, or the TD27, but will have the ZD30 sitting there.

 

Going to leave it as the GU state of tune ?

 

Yeh mate, motor is standard, only running a Dawes Valve, 2 3/4" exhaust, catch can, EGR blocked, goes alright in an over 2 1/2T Patrol, so should go alright in the Lighter Nav :awesomework

 

Consider a H233B VG30E powered D22 rear diff. They're 4.375 diff ratio.

Stronger then the C200 aswell.

I have a R200A front diff if you're interested.
