Re: Patrol 4.2 SGL - 1996 for sale
Hi Julian,
I had a Tombo fitted on my 4.2D when it was at Michael's. It brought the temps down considerably! Where I once hit 99C with the old radiator, also aluminium if I remember correctly (my car is Y61); with the Tombo I have only gone up to about 93C. Normally my car runs around 80-85C - take into consideration that I have a grass-seed net on the bull bar, which restricts air flow.
Tombo radiator was also roughly 1/3 the price of a new Nissan Radiator.

Or you could spend an extra R25K and get this one that is already turbo charged

Inclined to agree, think it must be one of the cleanest GQ's in the country with only 180000km since new, the imported GR spec and numerous extras plus the hairdryer

Ian, that car of yours will sell like... blitsvinnig! I've got a buddy down in the Southern Cape who might just trade his front teeth for it
