RHD 2.7TD Nissan Mistral Owner in CANADA!

Hello 4x4 Enthusiasts!

My name is Shawn and I picked up my 1994 Nissan Mistral (Terrano 2 R20) 7 years ago from a gent in the interior of BC who got it from a guy who imported this gem into BC sometime in the mid-2000s. I picked it up with 168000 km and it's now up to 205000 km. It's in pretty decent shape and I would like to keep it going for another decade.

I've recently purchased a set of summer and winter tires with the hopes of putting some more miles on the SUV. Any suggestions for getting a little more power out of it on the highway would be appreciated!

Also, tips for maintenance and upgrades are also of interest. Feel free to post links to previous discussions that I should take a look at please!

Seeing as most of you are from the UK, I thought I would post some pictures of what we get in BC, CANADA. This is from my 2017 trip on Vancouver Island to the west coast. I am beginning to understand that what we call "going to find a logging road", you all might call "green-laneing". But I may be mistaken.

This was after a quick climb up a hill. This R20 can really move - like billy goat fast - up these trails. Too bad it takes longer than 20 seconds to get over 100km/hr on the highway.

This is what I woke up to at 6am. We drove up the road at night, in the dark and really had no idea what to expect in the morning.

Coming back down:
