Hi guys, been a while since I have been on here, and looks like my turbo is dead. I have lost a heap of boost and it makes a terrible noise when you turn the engine off. I have the turbo off and apart at the moment and there is a big flat washer on the exhaust side just behind the exhaust...

Ive contacted Scott's Rod's too about an exhaust for my 2006 D40 Auto (no factory fitted DPF) and they couldnt help me at all. Was told they dont make an exhaust to fit my model. On another note, the systems they make WILL NOT fit your car if you have a long range tank. A good mate in town...

Bugger!! Wish I knew about the forum member discount Chipit, I just paid full price for mine last week......

Passage GT, (Trav) I dont think it would be an issue with servicing, the blokes at PMG wouldnt have a clue what they were looking at I dont reckon and if it doesnt look outta place they will be none the wiser. I did mine and you cant tell at all that anything has changed just by looking at it...

Ordered my Chipit chip last week and received it yesterday. Havent installed it yet but gave my mate a hand with his D40 Chipit chip install and drove it with it installed which made me buy mine. I hafta say the whole kit is very professional. Detailed instructions full of photos of exactly how...

d40.navara you say you are fully engineered? is that including 33 inch tyres along with the Calmini kit? have you done speedo correction and if so how? any other mods you had to do to get it passed? I have the Calmini kit in mine (good mate does too) and we are wanting to get them both...

Ive been looking at the Nissan USA site too, brand new Nissan Titan Pro-4x with a few goodies driveaway for around $40k!!!!!!! To buy one here is over $100k!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I use Castrol Magnatec 15w40, no issues at all though I do live in the Pilbara so can justify the slightly higher viscosity due to the warm climate

If Nissan or Toyota sold them from the factory like that they would make heaps of money!!! Lots of people looking for 4 door, solid axle, trayback, full size 4wd. I know I would buy one if they didnt command such a high price!!

I havent been given a price for a custom exhaust as no-one up this way will do one, hence trying to buy a system already made. Ive emailed a couple different exhaust places and see what they say. I would be happy to have a 2.5" system even, but still havent had any confirmation of what system...

Ok guys, got an email back from the exhaust shop Im looking at buying an exhaust from and the guy tells me the 2006 D40 has a different turbo to the 2007 and later ones? Any ideas??

Hi guys, Im currently looking at putting a 3" exhaust on my D40 but am having some trouble. Mine is an auto but being early 06 it doesnt have a DPF. All the exhaust systems I have been looking at are either for a manual only or auto with DPF. Ive even had an exhaust shop tell me he doesnt think...

It has alot to do with the terrain you drive as well as tyre pressures. I live in the Pilbara WA and to get 40k out of a set of tyres is doing pretty good. 100 Series Cruiser 265/70R17 Cooper STT's - constant 30k from a set (3 sets now) GU Ute 285/75R16 Goodyear MTR's (old style) - 40k from...

Chevrolet.. Car Has Extensive Valve Rattle On Long Extended Trips

just an update on this guys, ive just replaced my front springs as i didnt realise how sagged my suspension was. I put the same height springs in as before and gained 55mm of height. So my old suspension was 55mm sagged hence I only had a 3" lift instead of a 5". So I can honestly say with a 3"...
