Hi from NZ

Hi all,
just browsing other Nissan Forums and found a link to here (posted by someone who has a Y61 SWB)

Anyway, thought I'd join, as there are very few Y61 SWB's here, so its great to find a site that has modded ones.

I have an 89 GQ (only standard, haven't attacked it yet) and a 99 GU swb, which I have semi modded. Only a 3" lift, 33" tyres and a superior flex arm and drop boxes at this stage as its only the 2.8 motor so would struggle with 35's

Looking at a engine conversion to a TD42T but am finding it hard to get a gearbox to suit at a reasonable price, so the bigger lift etc are on the back burner for now.

Yeah, didn't realise I had to pay to get full membership, thought it would just be the trip section etc I'd miss out on.

Never mind
