The problem is you need a computer to properly sort a Variable Vane Turbo. Which negates the one thing I like most about a TD42.
I know I'll never have the dosh to fiddle with this, but I have been wondering about a two-stage system comprising a supercharger first stage and a turbo second stage...

Re: External oil cooler
Ah, terminology, sorry. I would not have thought anybody would call that a sandwhich plate.
Can I suggest that you may be able to find the part number on Partsouq?

Re: External oil cooler
The sandwhich plate is not a Nissan item.
Any motor racing shops should either have them or know where to get them.

Re: New to Patrol
Welcome Ronald
I don't know of anybody down there who specializes in that engine, but for general work (and a much better idea of who does what down there) get hol of Gerhard at G_Tech in Fishoek.

Re: 83 Safari no fire
It is my understanding that the only real purpose of the condensor is to reduce the sparking/arcing across the points, allowing them to last longer. About the carb and fuel pump: The float is inside the carb body. Won't see it from outside. Some carbs do have a "sight glass" (a little wind...

Re: 83 Safari no fire
Carb or fuel injection? Mechanical or electrical fuel pump? There may be a blocked strainer somewhere on the fuel system (fuel pumps often have them, and carbs could have them on the inlet). Or it could even be a hose or something. If there is enough flow to fill the carb float bowl before starting,...

Re: My nuwe ou Patrol 4.8 GRX 2011
GQ is so 2-300kg ligter as GU. Maar hy het meer windweerstand en die oorspronklikke enjins is minder gevorderd, so hulle brandstofverbruik is eenders of swakker. Die GQ was beskikbaar met 'n TD42, maar alleenlik sonder turbo. Hulle is egter bitter skaars, en natuurlik ook baie stadig. Hulle het wel ...

Re: Rims for Nissan Patrol 4x4 2004
The Patrol has a relatively standard PCD of 5.5" (139.7mm).
But the spigot diameter is larger than most other vehicles, and for non-Patrol rims the ID of the rim needs to be opened to 102mm.
16" and larger rims should fit (assuming the above has been sorted).
