Maybe the RB will live the rest of its life listening to doof doof and doing circles in a MacDonalds car park who knows. But what we know is the 4x4 deserves a decent diesel. Sorry to hear about the rego delay frustration and extra money spent but no use sending good money after bad is my vote.
@@greglomas7620 thanks mate, yeah unfortunately it will be a few weeks before the next episode comes out as I'm going to have to get parts and put it all together. Thanks for the support 🙂
Hi Tim & Dad, personally I would use the diesel.. rip out all of the petrol systems build a testing stand with the electronics and make that a separate (long term) project figuring it out. then once you fix it you can either reinstall the petrol system and sell it to try and get some money back. Basically your dad is 100% right,, you want the diesel for almost instant all day long stress free motoring. As a side note and revenge on a liar, I would go dump a whole bag of sugar in your old fuel tank and give him some heartache
right now the level of frustration when you can not identify the problem is damming. The diesel should be easier in the way that there are not alot of electronics, most possible problems should be easy to identify in the diesel set.
Hey Tim, what was your reason for the swap to get this in the first place? Just the newer body shape? I'm a Landcruiser owner, so I don't get Patrols - but turbo diesel is a wonderful thing! Even better, the twin turbos (in my 200 series) rolling coal overtaking on the highway, towing a 2 ton boat, with clouds of black smoke billowing out the exhaust as people look on in horror... It's a beautiful thing
As a patrol guy I don't get the LandCruiser thing lol. The reason for the swap was I wanted to go to the newer platform of the GQ for the coil springs all round and the strongest diffs and box available. The plan was always to put the v8 but I didn't plan on doing it that soon.
Time and work commitments mostly mate. It has been very difficult to get back out to the boat to do work or film anything. Wife, 3 kids and 2 jobs ( not including RUclips) sometimes means the video work gets left behind. I hope this has answered your question and thanks for watching 👍
mate, I feel you're frustration...., think this time you got screwed and you're too much of a nice bloke to have a go at the seller, given that you accepted the challenge, however i'm thinking not all truth was told to you and unfortunately nice guys do come last sometimes. BUT ! Wait ! ( i am only 6 minutes into the video lol) I'm sure you will come out the other side either smelling like roses or grinning like a cheshire cat !. Cheers, Frank
you're grinning like a cheshire cat lol., I think you will persevere and do your darndest to make this happen, defeat ain't in your vocabulary . @@HarpersShed
Dang fulla the who dickey watchma thing a mijig is a tad boofo.😮 try it bit further then V8 ya won,t go wrong.😅 Bummer though all the same. Stacks and Diesel...... Carry on. 😊
As good as the RB was...... the youngest is now 30 yo....... how many straight, untracked, unbodged heads are left..... and being the enthusiast engine it is..... $$$$$...... the diesel should be far less headaches.....hopefully.
Wolf ECUs are horrible. Even a Nistune flash on a factory ECU would be better. Bin it and go with the diesel. Listen to dad, dont waste your time. Dont get me wrong, I love the RB30s, I still have a couple myself....but in skylines which are half the weight of the GQ.
Come on mate. There is no bad content. It's called life. I spent forever welding up my shed tube rails to hold the tin up. Made one backwards. Fuck oh well. Send you a pic when it's up, right now your roasting and I am soggy
scrap the petrol 6cylinder, , fit the v8 diesel, and be done with it. less heart ache. life is too short to be screwed around with that , junk the petrol
Pull out the six, you gave it the old college try, it didn't work, not your fault like you said others have butchered the wiring and who knows what else. Drop in the 8, just my opinion.
Fellas I feel your pain. Don't carry on do it once and do it with DIESEL . More fun easier and right first time. Good luck
No shame. Pursued it as you did and didn't get a result. So much respect. Don't go changing, just to please me, love you just the way you are.
Thanks mate, yeah can't say we didn't give it a good try
Now you’re just being silly, oops i mean “Billy” lol love your comment
Trash the petrol and go the diesel. It sucks that your "runner" isn't. I feel your pain!
Thanks mate, bit annoying but one door closes another opens as they say
and this is a good thing unless you are driving at the time! @@HarpersShed 🤣
Lol yeah that could be bad
You and your dad are great together! Mix of comedy and facts!
Don't know about facts, more just carrying on lol
You just answered your problem, put the diesel in this channel is turning into Days of Our Lives LOL one drama after another
Yeah it certainly feels that way. Hopefully I can pull it together and make some forward progress instead of backwards
Hang in there, mate. We are rooting for ya. Tim, the Australian legend can do it cause who can?
Thanks mate, unfortunately things are not going according to plan. I will put up a video soon explaining what's happening and why the lack of content.
@HarpersShed I kinda figured something went tits up. If I can help mate let me know. Love from a very wet n cold 🥶 snowed yesterday 🇺🇸.
Diesel mate (with stacks)👍🏻
Hi mate, change the motor. Les stuffing around
I vote for letting the wreckers have it and ......getting back to the boat work, Even though I thoroughly enjoyed these vids.
Boat video coming very soon mate. I didn't intend this to turn into a big project but that seems to be the way things go with me.
@@HarpersShed no wuckers
If phil says diesel that's my vote❤❤
@@judithcoleman8577 can't say no to family 👍

Yeah you're spot on. Cut the losses on the RB and move on
that boat is the worst to be fair lol. Just a floating bit of drift wood
Wasn't far off it when I first got her but it's worth more now 🤣
Use the petrol for a mooring block for kiara
Lol that would probably make me feel better
@@HarpersShed don’t let the pressure of entertaining us subscribers beat you down mate. Just plug away at it and she’ll be right.
@@greglomas7620 thanks mate, yeah unfortunately it will be a few weeks before the next episode comes out as I'm going to have to get parts and put it all together.
Thanks for the support 🙂
@@HarpersShed you could always put up a blooper’s episode showing all the swearing and tantrums lol
@@greglomas7620 lol that would get the channel demonitised guarantee
Give each other a hug or handshake and make a new plan with the diesel bud
Lol well we had a few beers and made the decision 😄

I will still keep the ecu and engine and may do exactly what you said and run it on a test stand just for my own satisfaction.
i would def go with the diesel. will be a much more reliable, simple to understand/repair, and likely resistant to possible EMP
right now the level of frustration when you can not identify the problem is damming. The diesel should be easier in the way that there are not alot of electronics, most possible problems should be easy to identify in the diesel set.
They certainly are a lot more resilient

Are you closing this one down to Tim? If you are maybe a video of the patrol done would be good
Yes mate unfortunately I will be stopping this channel also. I will most likely do a video when the patrol is 👍
@@HarpersShed all good mate, really enjoyed your content but totally understand the pressure it must cause.
@@greglomas7620 thanks for the support mate👍
v8 way to go chin up mate
DIESEL DIESEL DIESEL DIESEL
I'm watching it but wondering why your not posting updates on boat
Time and work commitments mostly mate. It has been very difficult to get back out to the boat to do work or film anything. Wife, 3 kids and 2 jobs ( not including RUclips) sometimes means the video work gets left behind.

Yeah I certainly got the raw end on this one. What do you think now you have watched the whole thing?
you're grinning like a cheshire cat lol., I think you will persevere and do your darndest to make this happen, defeat ain't in your vocabulary . @@HarpersShed
@@djmini2numpty141 I will push through that's for sure

Stacks for the win 😄
As good as the RB was...... the youngest is now 30 yo....... how many straight, untracked, unbodged heads are left..... and being the enthusiast engine it is..... $$$$$...... the diesel should be far less headaches.....hopefully.
Fingers crossed it's a better unit in the end
My vote goes to the V8 buddy
Wolf ECUs are horrible. Even a Nistune flash on a factory ECU would be better.
Bin it and go with the diesel. Listen to dad, dont waste your time.
Dont get me wrong, I love the RB30s, I still have a couple myself....but in skylines which are half the weight of the GQ.
I'm not sure if the issue is actually in the wolf but the end result is the same mate it's coming out.
Diesel..
Swap it out, piece of mind
Diesel swap coming soon 👍
F the rb20 put a proper desel in it
Deal 🤝
go the V8 !!! my humble opinion lol.. ( did i mention my heart transplant for the xd 6 cyl to a V8 I did lol )
Yes mate you certainly did.
Swap that thing!
Plans are underway 👍
Change the engine and put the diesel in.
Come on mate. There is no bad content. It's called life. I spent forever welding up my shed tube rails to hold the tin up. Made one backwards. Fuck oh well. Send you a pic when it's up, right now your roasting and I am soggy
Yep it happens mate, we just keep moving on regardless.
Like I said change it but I would have done the same as you.
scrap the petrol 6cylinder, , fit the v8 diesel, and be done with it.
less heart ache. life is too short to be screwed around with that , junk the petrol
Thanks mate
Drop the V8 in and bin the crap.....
v8 all day
Pull out the six, you gave it the old college try, it didn't work, not your fault like you said others have butchered the wiring and who knows what else. Drop in the 8, just my opinion.
Yeah we certainly put the effort in. V8 all the way now
Go V8 diesel
Hi Tim you seem to like buying heaps of shit LOL
I have a bad habit of seeing the potential through the issue. Trouble with that is I tend to overlook the faults
RB30 👎👎 V8 Diesel 👍👍
Certainly seems to be the majority of the voters
