Mate you started with the right rig. Although my preference of engine is actually the RB30 version of these. I had one with fuel injection off a VL and a custom Twistedfab turbo kit. Was a real weapon. If you want to know stuff or get part for this thing. Get on to a place down your way called Patrolapart, they have everything you will ever want for a patrol.
EFI upgrading makes the RB30s alright in these, better with boost. The carby RBs from factory are total dogs though. Plus the TD/TB box is stronger than the RB/RD box for bush work
one thing to remember, have to do it on my 89 gq too, if youve been running it on gas all day, make sure you switch it to petrol for a minute before you shut it off. helps the carby a bit and starts easier in the morning
I like the fact that even though you didn't find a rig going on that road trip im glad you still put it in the video cause it was actually good content hahahaha Most people would have just done a new car review instead of filming them finding a car
If your going to keep running 35’s you will need more lift a 4 inch works good then drop out cones(if your going with a shock with a lot of travel) a rear guard chop would be required get upgraded/lengthened rear control arms to suit the lift that’s a few basics also a upgraded steering arm
The best 4WD channel on YT. Watch out MightyCarMods GQ's can handle boost. But first, staino snorkle with some nice barwork and a 'couple' of lights should give you another 15kw. How confident are you and how far do you want to take it? It's a LWB wagon, so, maybe a chop and turn it into the tuffest rig with a tray at the back
Had to follow after this first video 🤘🏽 get into the 4x4 world not only is it a great time but I’m sure there would be much more people enjoying content
Joined the channel a few months ago to see what another Rex was up to & for the au content as I have owned a few, have a nice au Fairmont V8 at the moment,loving the new Nissan patrol content as the old man is into them, Barra swap in the patrol would be nice.
clean it up, more lift, better rims, staino snorkel, tb42s suit turboing very well cos low factory compression so turbo it, diff lockers, barwork, driving and rock lights. all the fruit and have some fun!
They generally do about 600 before needing a reco if they've been serviced enough. The abused ones usually have worn oil pumps and rings by 400k though
Barra conversion. Off the shelf looms and couplings / mounts available as it's pretty popular (use another gassy). Or turbo convert the TB Garage spec bog job and Raptor Paint coat 🤘 Also need at least 37s and 4" 😅 Dual stainless steel snorkels (just cause) Also lose the bullbar and find a factory bumper but they're getting pricey Rear quarter chop Xr6 seats
polish it and change the tires to somethin that doesnt poke out the guard an a sneeky roady can be sorted but the bloke is in the western suburbs of melb for $800
Go to a town called Cowwarr, i know a guy with a shit tonne of abandoned cars and bikes. If you can somehow convince him to sell any i'll be very impressed.
No one really wants the carby tb42. They aren’t great off-road due to fuelling issues at angle. These are everywhere for $3000-$5000 registered in NSW. Going to be a hard flip.
Hey mate I know some people who are trying to get rid of some old cars there not in amazing condition but they do run there about 10minuites out of leongatha
RB conversion is not a good idea they are inferior to the TB in nearly every way (for a Patrol towing/offroading etc). If you have a TB GQ an RB is a downgrade in every way. Plus the RB box is not made to tow or take extra power in a GQ. Box is made for a 1600kg road car. Nissan actually advised against towing with the RB/RD GQs because they would chew 5th or throwout bearings. Better off boosting the TB they are a stupid strong motor and can take boost/abuse all day. They are made to have torque to move the big girl around. You can take a TB up to 220kw plus with turbo/cooler and pump/ injectors and they will do it all day. One of the most over engineered motors ever made for its purpose IMO. Anything you want to do to an RB, you can do to a TB. They have all the same hardware in the block for oil and water feeds/returns but the TB has more cubes and lower comp ratio. It just responds better in a Patrol. People swap turbo barras, LS1/3s into their patrols and find they don't actually go that hard where it counts, and they still use the same fuel. LS swap is cool but thirsty up top and has comparable performance down low. Barra might seem like obvious upgrade but they aren't close to a stock TB down low. Don't sleep on the TB man I've had alot to do with Patrols and its a motor that's simple, strong, moddable, good at its job, and unfairly swapped out for the fully hectic factor of a turbo barra or LS. My 2c
lets go every thing in 1 channel
That’s the goal of the channel 😂 try everything cars and find out what ya like
@@RexH u just need European cars now. Consider a golf.
@@breemsp591 everyone has a golf
@@breemsp591 nar e30
Volkswagen das auto
TB's love a bit of boost. Low compression ratio (8.3:1) from the factory means you can get away with a few cheeky psi. Solid purchase 🤘🏻
I’ve been told! Need to boost it 👀
Bro buying and reselling cars would be dope content, you’ve definitely got the knowledge, it’s just a lot of effort. Keen to see what y’all do 🔥
Thanks Daniel! I want to docco it but it’s not easy! Would be cool to do a few good flips
Good to see the variety on your channel rex,it should bring in a more broad audience and U deserve it!

This was such a good video bro! You and your crew have such good vibes. 11/10

This is what we need, A channel with variety and aussie!
Rear quarter chop with bar to suit
& the efi gear bolts straight on
Do the suspension aswell
Drop boxes, adjustable panhard rod etc
WELCOME TO THE PATROL WORLD WOOO
I'm from Warragul/Baw Baw, so great to see the smaller country towns that I've spent my whole life at getting a shout out!! 🤟
The greatest 4wd ever made
This has got to be my favourite car channel atm
Surely fix the paint and add some boost get some mad fog lights, put a tent/cover rack up top, get a strong winch for the tuff patrol
i was going to buy that car on face book market place but you got it first😂😢

Good advice daniel! I rckn I’ll put some up 😂😂

Geez 400k kms on a TB42. First purchase might need to be a rebuild kit!
It’s just run in
@@TURBOTRISTO oil will be thickened up nicely, who needs piston rings!
They generally do about 600 before needing a reco if they've been serviced enough. The abused ones usually have worn oil pumps and rings by 400k though
Dudes love it... Do what we all do to our Patrols LS it and send it, against the tb42 you save on fuel too.....
note. I live near nyora and there a mint speedway track there. there also a lot of mint cars in korumburra down elmores road.
you should put a barra in it with a big turbo
UP THE GQ!!!!! I absolutely love them you guys got a great car no joke they are the best 4wd you will ever own
At 13:28 you guys were in a town called "Moe" I live there haha
My dads one is the 4.2 he just put a turbo on it and boy are fun for off-road but the petrol doesn’t sound bad neither
R grsde Dx Diesel 494000km sold at auction $7000 in Japan , that a fair price for a petrol manual in Australia
Barra conversion. Off the shelf looms and couplings / mounts available as it's pretty popular (use another gassy). Or turbo convert the TB
Garage spec bog job and Raptor Paint coat 🤘
Also need at least 37s and 4" 😅
Dual stainless steel snorkels (just cause)
Also lose the bullbar and find a factory bumper but they're getting pricey
Rear quarter chop
Xr6 seats
how much is a barra swap do you have any idea.
diversifying! love the new content guys! Always a joy and entertaining :)
just need an ss and you’ve finished the bogan bucket list haha. just sold a td turbo wagon and its the best car ive ever owned
polish it and change the tires to somethin that doesnt poke out the guard an a sneeky roady can be sorted but the bloke is in the western suburbs of melb for $800
Yessss let’s goooo 🎉
good purchase get it serviced with some 33s and get it off road!
Omg bro didn't expect it. Rex I was thinking of doing this in the future because there are cars everywhere in the country
It’s worth a shot!
Go to a town called Cowwarr, i know a guy with a shit tonne of abandoned cars and bikes. If you can somehow convince him to sell any i'll be very impressed.
Bro I joined this channel at 3k subs, mans making big moves !
Gotta take it out bush boys. GQs are mad capable.
Lets go up the GQ
UP THE GQ!!!!
Hey mate when the gq didn’t start did you get dashlights come up or nah? Any sound?
How did you find out if the rego was cancelled or not?
Should have gotten an early GU I rekcon. Idk how cheap the GQ was tho. Turbo the GQ tho they go hard
Got my rd28 s1 gu for 3.5k cheap and a bit better driveline then the gqs
Those springs look very sagged, I'd try find some newer 3" ones, then repaint the bullbar & find some led spotlights/light bar 🤙
Use a water to air intercooler and it'll be mint
Should do a VK56 swap
16:15 another patrol
Lol😂😂
800 grit sand the ugly rust spots and paint drips paint over that along with clear ...the body will come out mint
Put set of stock wheels back on it for one week. New clutch n do what you know bomb it off its chops
Turbo for sure but towing is defo 17 litres plus per hundie easily
Chop it and out a hectic engineered or fabd tray cause then it’ll be sick as, and since it’s petrol you could fit a Barra or ls1 into it
yeah nah tough rig boys. get it on the road (mission) and use it as a camping/ tow rig. no more air bnb when going to winton hahaha. but sick purchase
Put an EFI system on it turbo it and turn it into a sleep
Watch a channel called Aussie Arvos. A guy called Dan has done a heap of mods and how to vids. There might be something there that you can learn from.
Good series idea
My pop has one a exactly the same and it’s in mint condition
bro loved the channel before but now i will even more with some fourby content🤘
Damn Rex getting a gq
Drove through my home town
nothing like REXH and sausage rolls
the pooey is one tuff rig
Should have grabbed that f100 ambo or that fairlane at the first house
I need an update on this within a week x
great vids man
Cheers man!
Go the Patrol! 🛻📹🤙😎
Yo u should do a diy car respray
haha you brought this right around corner from my house lol
bro u need to chop it and make it have a tray and so many people will watch that bro 💙
save the old beast fix it up turn it into a sick off-road 4wd/camper then go to Fraser island and go fishing
Barra swap and make like 500hp that be sick
Keen as for patrol content
I really thought it was gonna be a forklift 💀
Your videos are amazing
efi kit ,staino and turbo
No one really wants the carby tb42. They aren’t great off-road due to fuelling issues at angle. These are everywhere for $3000-$5000 registered in NSW. Going to be a hard flip.
Definitely lift it more and just clean it up, paint the bullbar, get it tidy again, great content guys
I was not expecting that
Hey mate I know some people who are trying to get rid of some old cars there not in amazing condition but they do run there about 10minuites out of leongatha
Hey man pls msg me on Insta 🙏 cheers!
@@RexH sorry don’t have Insta
@@RexH I do have tik tok but
Perfect choice mate 👌🏼
Cheers Riley!
snake cut flares and stainoooo
U better put a td42 or a rb30 in it
Why the RB30 over a TB?
Should get the miss to service it would funny 😂
UP THE TUFF RIG
MIGHTY GQ POOEY
Slap a solid supercharger on it do a full rebuild of the engine 😅
Do a Rb/ls swap and use it as a tow rig if off road isn't for you or do a dual cab conversion 😎

You might have offended the Holden lovers with the 'bulbous' comment but you made a lot of GQ and GU Patrol owners happy.
Lord knows that car has done hard kms
Do an RB25/30 pls
