  1. fuck I think I finally found your build thread...! did your ecu turn up ?
  2. Yea untill........ the battery exploded in it and sent acid plastic all directions. How do you know him?? Fishing?
  3. Hey crew I was one of the noobs I was with vaughn..(mopar muppet) was good to hang out with you guys. You need to see what Mopar muppet is up to. He doesn't post photos yet but he is a hell man hot rodder think v10's plymouth and chrysler from ass hole to breakfast time. His shed is nearly x2 of my house. anyway i'll get my hand off it. I think all the lads the AW11 and starlet and cef etc were friends with Robert.
  4. are you taking the piss or what? What is this witch craft you speak of ?
  5. at 600 KG and you would go lighter.... the only word that comes to mind is composite. seriously a light weight camper...
  6. Yes...indeed. a big glass phallus or a clear glass marijuana implement. Oh the things you can get from china these days. If you stray from glass tube look out. The mind boggles.
  7. Yes indeed. would love to know what the flow meter they use is. This why ID injectors are so expensive but so good.
  8. I know when I lived in ozzy the troopies were let out to tourists on fraser island.... they just about all got flipped many bad accidents. I have this gut feeling that they are not ment to be stacked with bulk stuff up on the racks. Great wag's though.
  9. not a bad Hot spot for things to see .. http://www.doc.govt.nz/parks-and-recreation/places-to-go/
  10. Yea it's dependant. I'm happy to unhook the camper and go 4x4ing. if there is somewhere cool to drag the camper back to then go and grab it if it's worth it.. most NZ trails are so short.
  11. Cool as struggle for hours for trail info
  12. B.O.S.S Bug out survival shelter. or kiwi summer sleeping unit.
  13. The disability not to tow a boat is a real pain. It would be cool if you could just B train your nissan patrol with a camper and a boat haha. Most of our 4x4 trails are short with longest likely the molesworth... most but You kind of poke your nose down the trail 15 K and your there mostly dirt road.. but the ability to camp at the end of it and not wreck the place is important. Can't find bugger all trails from a google search so I assume a lot is private land only open to the clubs. But to be self reliant sleep 4 people and have some form of insulation I think is important. Sorry this looks terible. I'm sure it's fine but my gosh... it's not my thing.
  14. I'm not sure I am starting to think that angle alloy is being put along the outside corners and the inside gets a nice flash little bit of trim so you don't see the corner.
  15. I suspect that will be top heavy. ?? To be fair iv never taken to many offroad trails in NZ. Done plenty in ozzy. But I suspect most of our tracks will be gravel roads. With the odd water splash. Most tracks not much longer than a 100K max?
  16. I'll be sure so scoop up a x missiel truck the next time the soviet union decides to upgrade.
  17. I'm torn... it's light for what it is I guess. But I think without all the creature comforts I can't help but wonder what it would come down to. Remembering most 4x4's will pull 3T now days. The construction of the panels and how they join the the corners and eadges is what i'm interested in. ozzy also has a savage dust issue... without that big rear cap might be better for NZ
  18. Oh yea.. shes a big girl... even if it is all composite panels. What got me was that it's total expedition spec and you could live happy in there for weeks/ months if a quake hit 200L water. and black/grey tanks.. you know what I mean. 2400KG is a drama and the tow vehicle needs to be big. A tube chassis makes good sence to me as well.. I don't know it's just in the ideas stage. Tandem axels give a advantage but then single has it's place too. I will have two kids before xmas so I was thinking about building a great family camper. maybe a slightly shorter single axel would be something to look into... a tear drop with a square back to get max space. ??? hmmm
