Looking shmick.  Where did you get the ram intake for the snorkel?  I am still to work up the courage to cut a hole in my car......

Also, how hard is it to bend that stuff to make the bash gaurd?

snokel

I know the feeling, cutting that guard would kill me!....but still, I would love the one from brazil, we should try to find someone that speak...portugese...to make an order.

I think that Glen and Admin are the same....the first post on Glen's built is done by Admin...

Happy io

Snorkel/Glen

Sorry, I am good at that! I thought that I have seen some comments from "admin"...

We had some good rain lately and I had a very close call with a small river crossing, a bit deeper, and a bit too much water.   I picked-up some water in the air intake from the front grill, didn't put the tarp:( as I used to go through without drama... I got lucky the water didn't go further than the air filter:)

I have read somewhere that one of us know where to buy the brazilian snokel, I would like one!

In case it is not possible, (for ebs) where did you get the plastic angles for your snorkel?

Happy io.

Hey guys, i had to ring

Hey guys,

i had to ring around nissan spare parts dealers for the intake ram its a 3.5 inch i think, you can buy cheaper brand new items from overseas on ebay. The first one the dealer sent me was all broken and bent and had to ring them back every week for about 2 months before they would replace it, so i suggest ebay!!

Hi glen, couldnt really tell u about the fuel econ id have to put all the old stuff back on to tell the difference, its definately no worse though :) need some fat mud tires next!! hows your beast goin, those lockers workin sweet??

I think i can speak for everyone on the site and say no pressure on running the site man, we are all really grateful for the amount of time and effort you have put into the site, replying to everyones posts, welcoming members, keeping the site secure and organising group buys ect. Doing a great job man! All with no internet at home, renovating and a wife and new kid on the way. Far out bro, i think if it wernt for you a site like this would still not exist, i wouldnt have learnt the things i have and chatted with all these people with similar interests learning off each other, my hat is off to you man! keep up the good work! look forward to meeting you and everyone else on a trip further down the track!
