Another newbie from North Wales
Hi all, just a quick hello from drizzly Caernarfon in North Wales.
Proud owner of a slightly holey 1999 Terrano 2 SE 2.7 in metallic green. I've only owned it since February and absolutely love it. Running 50% waste veg oil at the moment and pulls like a train. I've been lurking around the forums the last week or so and found so much useful information so thanks to everyone in advance because I'll have saved an arm and a leg from all the advice on here.

Welcome, 'tis a friendly little place with plenty of banter and humour. There are also claims that some people are knowledgeable about Nissans, which is nice...

Thanks for all the welcoming messages guys.
Pics to follow soon, I've got my work cut out this week preparing for the dreaded MOT.
Plenty of welding to do under the back seats and arches and a second second set of drop links to fit after cheap eBay replacements lasted a week of very little abuse before the steel started bending and the bushes started to disintegrate. Taken them off to minimise damage so it's like driving a boat at the moment., I've bought some FAI ones which do look a bit better but I honestly don't see these lasting a month with my driving. Ive been eyeing up makeitfit's rose joint solution but has anyone else done it with a rose joint and threaded bar to mount through bushes like the standard ones? |

They do look tempting! Are they bigbunny's?
Been at it stripping out the rear last night. Going to be making up new seatbelt mounts and third row mounts by the look of things so I'll be starting a build/restoration thread. Planning to roll it in matte black bed liner once it's mechanically sound. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |
