Can we please get a review from the camera crew lads later on down the track after a few trips once they've ironed out everything to create their perfect setup boys?
Good idea! If we can get them to sit still with a camera pointed at them..
Would be great to hear from people that probably don't know all the technical stuff to see how they appreciate it.. I can't see them having any faults except not being allowed to just own it.. and (and its a nissan).. tell them it'd only have to be like 10 mins on a beers in the shed ep or something
@@rhyskings1951 lol the camera guys are 4wd guys, they know the technical stuff.
Yeah and i think they might tackle the tracks first too most of the time
Actually more interested in this vehicle, more the common mans fourby than the big dollar stuff... should be good.
4wd/247 you 100% have to upgrade the intercooler to a big top mount or even better a front mount, the factory intercooler isn’t big enough for the load these engines are under especially with lots of additional weight. And get a good tune with potentially a ZL30 turbo upgrade. I recommend Evolution running. There is lots of info on these engines to make them unstoppable just need to weed through all the dodgy crap. A bigger IC and a good tune will completely change it for the better.
Would love to see more of this weapon in action on the trips. And I know the professionalism of you team is to film/shoot and not be seen, but really don't mind seeing her parked up with the convoy at night. You have worked hard on this patrol....show her off!
Was actually the mechanical injected 2D30 pre 2006 was the reason for the grenade, the post 2007 common rail zd30CRD wasn't a terrible engine.. sure have there faults but not a grenade...
The 3.2 P5AT seems to be the grenade of the decade
To be fair every nissan diesel motor has some sort of strange issue but we still love them
Hey I'm holding hope for my 3.2 sitting at 360,000ks ...so far
The crds are a good thing!!! Keep the fuel system well maintained do catch can egr block and tune it and will last for ages
Great videos I had a few patrols 4.2 leaf Ute 500
Thousand kms before I parted with it. Then the daily wagon 3.0lcrd
Patrol with steinbauer, 3inch beau exhaust, code reader etc, hpd cooler, catch can and a 20Pound diesel smart boost actuator redarc guages to keep
A check
Sold it at 250 thousand kms and wish we kept it and did a chop. great vehicle we did do a engine early on due to mechanic not re fitting the oil filter spigot bush it did a turbo from unfiltered oil dumped oil in and cracked a head or so we where told. Nissan replaced it all no worries and it was so good on fuel after the engine change and dyno now we have a y62 and a stroked coil td gu Ute 💪🏽 mild boost 24pound 14mm plunger 310
Fly wheel power
As bent as Graham on a Friday night 🤣
Another great one guys
😂
Really surprised the mechanic failed to mention you can install a tilex kit to delete the factory boost solenoid, also should of mentioned blocking the egr and installing a provent catch can is the best thing you can do to a common rail 3L, if you havnt already I would be putting a tillex valve on it
Have to be a sponser to be mentioned i think. Tillex are great.
Your so correct. I actually thought that mechanic didn't even really know that much about them. Even got the reason why the motors grenaded wrong.
@@jasonh6475 yeah when he said they over heat and it's common I laughed, they're not a 4.2 haha and egt temps on a 3L crd are safe at 600 he made it out like that's bad
He mentioned a boost control valve. Tillex is a brand of control valve. I use the HPD version, specifically for the CRD, simpler and cheap.
@@reddog4x4Matt I didn't hear him mention that, he mustn't of gone I to detail much on it,
Did I miss this in an ep somewhere? Is the camera car Darryl Junior !? That number plate.. DAzz JR. For the love of horses!!
The "explanation" about the ZD30 grenade was so vague it didn't even mention the CRD upgrade, which pretty much eliminated the early problems. The mid-life DI upgrades were alluded to but not explained either. No mention of terrible boost, air, and resultant overfuelling causing piston melt either. The CRD is pretty good if not abused but can benefit from a good exhaust, catch can, better intercooler, and a tune.
Yeah was a very poor explanation
that patrol looks sooo capable!!! Well done guys
just changed my 2011 r51 2.5 injectors at 175 000km. Car still ran but the cold winter was causing 1 to get sticky. Had white smoke on cold starts and bad rattle. Ran fine once hot tho. Still bit the bullet and 3.5k later 4 new injectors. big job made worse by a seized injector.
Just finished work, legends love you camera crew for getting the content out
Let's go earliest I've ever been! Love your videos boys keep up the good work!!! I was waiting for you guys to go a massive road trip and it's good to see Graham back in action.
What was the cost of the car originally and what was the cost of all this work? Be interesting to know
That's the vid I've been waiting for, now to dive into the mods
22mins ago uploaded, knocked off work, boots off, cold beers 🍻 👌
Interesting to see what products are used when sponsorship isn’t the priority (to a degree)
250,000km? That should be easy to run reliably. I have 547,177km on my rig and I'd take it anywhere.
It's the over boosting that gave them the name grenade, not mild overheating issues.
Still can’t believe that thieves would try and steal this thing
Neither can I, it’s a Nissan.
Nah just kidding, their just scumbags
Legit who would want to steal a patrol 🥴

Great video mate...just in process of getting my first ever patrol GU Work ute....some of these mods I will be doing
Where can we find the camera guys on social media? Love to see what kind of folks run with you all while working 👍🏾
WHEN IS PART 2 OUT SHAUNO
Probably next week mate, they wanna keep us on our heals. Keep the suspense going 😂
import a TB48 GU Nissan Patrol ute from the middle east and use the $10K for diesel pump/injector service on fuel. Can still buy them brand spanking new with the TB48 n UAE!
Go and see the boys at east cost performance tuning (ECPT) with out a doubt the best for ZD30, both DI and CRD patrols
The early 3.0L DI/direct injection is the grenade and the early gq TD42 are kettles and TB48 is bullet proof except for the fuel economy...😅
THANK YOU.
I did not know that.
Regards.
wow i love GU patrols
268000km on my 2003 Navara d22..still going strong..no issues..DX3.0L
Whoops!..it's actually 368000km..
one thing that is confusing me is I thought there was 3 or 4 guys in the wagon before so are the other guys going to get tucked into the canopy?😂😂
3 at times but now the 3rd rides with graham or Shaun
( me too )
When is the next video coming? Im in SA and i love watching you guys,
Suprised to see there's no bigger scoop and intercooler installed.
I'm pretty sure 90% of the reason why Shauno got that specific aerial, is because it is pink.
2:40 This is how so many cars in enthusiast communities get reputations...everybody repeats the same line that may at one point had some basis in truth, but no longer does, or it's a judgement call that got exaggerated via a game of telephone within the community with few personally judging for themselves
Love the new camera crew car even though I'm a Toyota fan. Would love to wheel with you guys one day. Keep the great content coming!
I seen all of you going though mareeba on Monday morning as I was riding to school 6/6/22 with the fj45 the dmw y62, Graham's isuzu and that camera car and I seen it and wondered who it was and after watching this I now know that that was the camera car
I think you should consider including the camera car in your videos more. I understand at least one has to be videoing but the other driving
Love to hear what the GU with the torqit exhaust on it sounds like as I’m abt to get one fitted to my GU but no one seems to have done a sound test on the tube?
I still find it hard to believe that some lowlife broke in and damaged the camera car just to vandalize it, what a waste of time and somebody else's money.
Have fun guys!
6 injectors for a ZD30? Hmmm 🤔
Haven't heard of a new Common Rail TD42 🤔😂
2 spares, of course. 😂
Does it have the big draw from the back side of the canopy?
What about extra lights??
Is it not needed??
0:56 didn’t see that coming😳
U make the bast 4wd vids ever keep them going mate good on yu
holding back the smirks n laugh when explaining the camera crew have never had a working head unit lmao
I’m sure the pink antenna is all about supporting a good cause also 😉
Makes me miss my old d22 nav!!
Where did you get the whole $800 x 6 injectors? It's a zd 30... it only has 4 injectors
Looks great glass house will be fun👍👍
Question, do you really need a catch can? Seems only people selling them reccomend?
You dont -need- one. But on diesels with EGRs its a VERY good idea to have one, as the oil catches the exhaust particulates in the intake manifold and clogs the entire manifold.
This thing is sweet. Love the single cab look
The vid I've been waiting for! Let's see that new camera car!
intercooler upgrade?
What is your opinion on the Dunlop Grandtrek? Considering those as it also has a 3 ply side wall with heavy tread pattern.
What type of scan tool ( code breaker ) is that . I interested in getting one for my vehicle
Here’s one thing that I have always thought is a massive item that dealerships are risking getting a law suit with if a customer buy a new vehicle from them.
They say that they will have set price services and this will be for the whole time of the original owner and people could have that vehicle for over 5 years some customers.
The most important thing is tyre’s have a road life of 5 years and what I mean by that is every tyre sold in Australia has to have the date it was made and it’s a 4 digit number.
The date is on both sides of the tyre and it’s in a square and the first two numbers are the month and the second two are the year and I have looked at family and friends cars that have had their vehicle from new and haven’t had their spare tyre replaced when it’s passed five years of the tyres date.
It’s a known thing all through the tyre manufacturing industry that if you have a tyre over five years old and you put it on your car it can delaminate without warning and completely fall apart and if that happens at 100 kmh you could be killed.
Would be interesting if you could ask dealerships why they don’t change the spare tyre when it’s passed five years old as this should definitely be a serviceable item.
ive got a 2005 3.0 turbo diseal with 285000kms and its runs well its rigged up
How do you put 6 injectors in a 4cyl engine?
Hammer.
"As bent as Graham on a Friday night"
Pissa
yo guys just want to say love your vids
When was the early problems rectified ?????
$800 x 6 are carrying 2 spares are we just in case?
So how many psi is overboost in these engines.
What sort of mirrors and flares are you guys running?
I thought I was gonna see a chopped & chassis extended on that nissan patrol the one they were using
Bent as Graham on a Saturday night 😂 I don't think it could be any more bent.
Did you boys get the front mud flap delete engineered as well?
Nice build guys. Bit low for a 2". When will mitsalloy let me buy that canopy? They wouldn't even quote me 2 months ago.
They’ve got a bit of a wait time at the moment - give them a call though! 👌🏻
Help me out here. If a catch can is so important on a modern diesel car and they’re relatively inexpensive to fit versus incredibly expensive to repair the damage when water ruins an engine…… Then why wouldn’t a manufacturer put one on there from factory? Especially considering the length of warranties they give out these days. Toyota for example are giving out 5 year unlimited kilometre warranties and 7 on engines and drive trains if you keep using Toyota for scheduled maintenance. Why would Toyota take a risk of wearing that bill if it was such a high concern?
EXCELLENT Point.
For the same reason they don’t put adequate sized stainless exhaust on cars - to save cost. They aren’t for water mate. They collect all the oil Vapour in the intake system that’s been circulated that coats the maf sensor which makes the sensor read incorrectly.
What is the best ute for a beginner offroader
So why don’t you put the solar on the roof of the cab that way you free up plenty of space on the roof of the canopy?
Because it’s lower it’s likely to get covered in partial shade more often. Better to have it as high as possible - but we’ll see how we go with space on the roof. We’ve been fine so far!
Does the new cam car have a lift kit ??
the new camera car is named Dass Junior. (Look at the number plate)
needs some mullet mods cup holders baha
When will the next episode of sooty mk2 come out?
Always look forward to your shows 😁
You going to tune it?
Have had both 4.2td and now a 3.0crd and wouldn't go back. Less heat,better fuel economy and now it's tuned and modified, way ,way ,more power. Pity those idiots don't know the difference between the two 3.0 Nissan motors.
X2. Went from 4.2gq to 3.0 crd gu tuned etc etc and I find the haters have no idea
Jason, which is the better motor, I do not know?
Which one is the pick of the bunch please? I do not know.
Thank You.
Regards.
Yes another video!!!
I kept thinking "break it" was referring to the shake down run. Completely forgot about the greesy skids that broke into it.
How much did you boys spend to get the patrol ready for the big trip?
When they need the most reliabilty for the camera car, it's always NISSAN 😂
4wd247 ignored my comment, skipped straight past it because they hate Nissan. I have never gone much on them as a nissan owner the content is very limited, seems counter productive (DUMB), it's really only a show for Toyota fans, plenty of nissan content out there instead of this commercialised fake rubish of saying whatever they are payed to say.
Yeah so true Bears it`s always been cash for comment with Shauno & Graham, now they own 24/7 its still the same but they try to disguise it, the smart ones like you see through it.
Graham has several Nissans. They have been known the praise them from time to time so i don't agree they hate Nissans.
However it is just a 30 minute to an hour long commercial that i agree with!
@@neth77 fair enough comment but that's a point also' how often do you see Grahams rigs???? How often do you see Shauns?
Yess bring it on 🍻
great stuff
But…. Why 6 injectors when Kats a 4cyl?
Good point
Does anyone know if that CodeBreaker work on the y61?
I've struggled to find any OBD reader that definitely works on older Patrols. Something about nissan having their own connectivity software? Only the high end Snap-on reader seems to work for me. Cheers
On the crd model not di.
@@Velcrochicken1 cheers mate
How tuff does that supercharged troll sound
Have you got any other products to sell
I'm surprised there isn't an Australian Air-Fuel separator system available like a Fass or Airdog that helps with injector life.
The boys on the tools
I might have to replace the TD42'S every 100k but $600 for all 6 injectors & I can replace them myself in an hour. Think I can live with that.
what do yall use to make your awesome thumbnails?
No spottys?
where is the gu wagon now wouldn't mind actually getting that car was a very capable rig
Love from India ❤️❤️❤️
THANK YOU.
LOVE from 'OZ'. (Australia)
@@tpv59 welcome welcome
Didn't know about the break-in, sorry for your bad luck!
Catch can's don't work on all diesels, they throw engin light's on with a few diesels
Drinking game: take a shot every time shauno says "cheap insurance"
lol, im 10 minutes in and i`m half cut!!!
Everyone will be dead 30 mins in
What tyres?
does this thing have more k's than sooty mk1?
Not yet!
@@4WD247 damm that's still alot though
Awesome car
personally if you intend to play in water a lot all vehicles should have a snorkel on the exhaust.. as you will ingest water, looking at a fire caused by dpf in a truck in a local business in Belmont WA if intend to play about in long grasses in your travels for fire safety clearances to enter these areas it might require removal of dpf all together
personally I'm someone that would stick to 1 brand of vehicle as it is easier to service it on the trail and get you moving again this is why have had issues in watching you content because if you breakdown in the bush you are screwed for repairs
Don't get me wrong i love all 4x4's however when i look at remote travel I see no point in adding other brands into the convoys because if they were to breakdown you are screwed for parts to get you to a safe place to get you repaired...
Note if you are running diesels your fire suppression system must be supporting that, noting that you must service the fire extinguishers every 12-18 month's to keep them compliant for use..
something that I did forget to you must a vac and and vdc calculations looking at what you are going to be powering from the nissan I would think a bare min of 4-6 batteries will be a need as 1 batt solution might be ok less 1kva power draw, you might consume as much 5kva or more pending current draw of the ac>dc wall wart that will be in use between camera gear and computers and fridges
