Got the ute back today and there is one question!! Why the F did anyone ever design a dmf. New clutch and smf are an absolute dream now ;) Outback extreme clutch single mass conversion peeps. Defiantly worth it

I would say that behind Toyota Nissan would have the next resale value. I get to drive a hilux and a landcruiser everyday as well as my NAV. Lets face it landcruiser and patrol tough,reliable, payload,upgrades they have almost everything. Except fuel economy and your bells n whistles. My last 3...

:rock:Oh well I'll have a loan car so looks like Bathurst off the lights in some kind of jelly bean loan car

I'm feelin ya. I'm booked in thurs morn in Adelaide for tow bar recall. I hope I don't get screwed around to much. Pretty simple job. Take off old one, weld two cracks and mount new one. 1/2 hour job maybe an hour for slave to the man. Lol. But no Nissan want my ute all day!!! Idiot x 2

Well this week has finally come. My beloved d40 goes under the knife. After babying my clutch for 6 months of stupid dual mass flywheel screech and stalling in traffic I circumed to a upgrade of an outback extreme single mass clutch. It's been sitting in the shed for 6 weeks until I've had the...

Do you have standard spring etc in there still?

Yeah I'm getting some u-bolts but the hardware store had a lack of.

Cost me 30 bucks to make and that was for the paint and clamps. Cheap and slightly nasty

Hey there guys, been a lovely wet weekend here on Yorkes. I'm getting ready for a trip to arkaroola in a fortnight and frantically getting everything the way I want it.. My query today is I have a flexiglass premier canopy on the d40. I've already made a set of racks and mounted them on the...

I used to have a d22 and when I had 245/75-16 which was roughly around that 770mm outside diameter mark the speedo was right. 31x10.5-15 is the same. What you have now is around 730mm. I'd be going 31s. Just make sure your tyres exceed the recommended ones on the plaquard. As in weight n speed...

Cheers will do

Looking for some second hand side steps or rock sliders for my d40. Preferably in SA and cheap?????

I'd be double checking the alternator. From around 2010 onwards they had a smart alternator which cuts in and out altering the needed voltage which ultimately is in search of better fuel economy. Driving with lights on fool the new alternators into charging full voltage. My 07 charges around...

Haha yeah true that. We have an old NISSAN/DATSUN 720 dual cab as a hack. I drew the short straw this morning and had to cram my 6"2' 110kg arse in the back seat. And my d22 wasn't much better. D40 with a canopy makes a big wagon, more room than a pathy and probably a shit load cheaper with a...

I try n think of the positives. I had a zd30 03 str and got all paranoid because forums thrive on things gone wrong not things gone right. Sold that ute to a local bloke with 285000 on it and that was 4 years ago. With the few little issues I might have with the yd25 they can be attended to but...

I do a bit of car hunting for people around home and just went through the process with a mate for a d22. This was 3-4months ago but then I could get him on road for around 26k. I got good contacts around cars but one thing you can't pick is when the brands "Nissan Mitsubishi etc" go and all of...

My theory when buying cars is you have to like it, get something that excites you that much you want to be outside washing it, sitting in it, laying underneath it, servicing it n working in it. When you love and appreciate your car sure it really hurts if something goes wrong but you can also...

I'd be getting the horror stories about some other brands then, supposedly the timing chain issue came from earlier vehicles, I have a ute that was done at 140000km. The motors tho are pretty punchy and economical, there is heaps of aftermarket acc and generally you'll find the money better too...
