#4x4 #Nissan #4WD
Cheeky title. 😁 I thought it was an end of an era. Good to see the 80 is getting some much needed love. Looking forward to seeing what you do to it. If that GU has been with the family for ages, it should be a keeper. Just like the 80, they're a classic 4WD.
Haha sorry about that Fatman! 😂 Yeah it really is! Another great jap 4wd!
being an LPG running engine that’s run hot a few times id be changing the spark plugs soon as possible
Bestest 4WD channel on the internet next to Mighty car mods✌️
Too kind!
Might car mods are not a 4wd channel tho
@@macdouglas1087 it’s actually a running joke with Moog’s from MCM that he says their the best, its to take the piss on another large Australian TH-cam account
@@macdouglas1087 MCM is Australia’s biggest and best 4x4 TH-cam channel
@@sambeazley3900 😂✌️
Holly shit you gave me a panick attack thinking you where getting rid of the 80
YES!!! What a great start to the day, bringing a patrol back to life, even if it's not a permanent swap
The 4.5 and 4.8 are bullet-proof
The tb42 walked so the tb45 and 48 could run
@@jakey7525 idk about the 45 running, maybe walking in an endurance race
Yeah, the 4.5 is pretty crap @@sanne3704
4.5 is a peice of shit
Every video I watch of you blokes I learn something new. An inspiration to anyone willing to put in a little bit of love I reckon!
Thanks Jago!
Wait, what?! No more 80? Phew! It's only temporary. You got me there. 👍 I thought it was adios to the 80. That GU looks like a keeper. Good work boys.
Thank hammerrocks, yeah it's actually a really nice GU!
This looks much better than the 80, I like the blue, keep it as a new project.
Guys, you already have an epic channel. You really don't need to bait people to come watch your amazing videos 😂🍻
Facts
The trusty and unbelievably reliable tb45…there nothing more efficient at turning fuel into noise and not much else😂😂
I didn't think I would enjoy a video on fixing up a Nissan. Yet here we are! Right to the end. Thank you!
Somebody fell for the Hiclone scam... 🤣🤣
Pls dont get rid of the 80
It’s a legend
Imagine owning that gu from new. Half a million kms is unheard of with new cars. I bought a new hilux back in 2021 and with less than 60k on it been back to the dealer 3 or 4 times for warranty repairs 😅
Yeah pretty crazy , original engine, really nothing's ever gone wrong with it.
@@AussieArvos back when they made cars to last
I've had many cars, and I always put an aftermarket alarm as a starting point preventative measure for theft or tamper, and I absolutely couldn't tell you how many times it's prevented my stuff or tools and car from being flogged. Broken door handles, window assembly, and door locks and Jimmy marks aside.
1000% worth having an alarm.
Then the rest.
In saying,
Great shows guys, keep it up.
Thought this was a permanent swap, but pleased you've brought back to life a family car, which is looking really good. Great episode and it'll be fun to watch along with the refurb of the 80. Nice one!
Thanks mate! Me too!
Now that is this channel has a fleet of patrols I consider it legit 😊
This sorta content is why I love this channel, keen to see what happens with the 80.
Thanks Hughesy!
Love both of your commitment to never cleaning an engine bay 😅
thought I'd never see the day, Liam wont let this go
Omg I thought this was the end of an era! Thank your mum for keeping this rig and letting you boys use it, I can’t wait to see more to come and what is to come up with the old cruiser too
Well done boys. Love the content of fixing stuff up and showing ppl to do things themself.
You should have popped the globe out of the flashing airbag light in the dash whilst you had it apart 😂😂😂
After you disconnect an airbag you need to perform a reset procedure in a GU Patrol and is just a series of key cycles, super easy
Just a good tip for you legends, I would be doing brake and clutch fluid flush. Manufactures recommend every 2 years but the fact it’s been sitting would highly recommend. Keep up the awesome content 👌👌👌
Id be ditching the cruiser and keeping the Patrol!
Yep agree
Same
nissan is Renault
and Toyota is Toyota….
Only if it was the TD 4.2. Not the petrol.
@@User33817even more reason to change.
Can’t beat the GQ/GU Nissan patrol best 4wd ever made
I need to import one of these to the states. One of the best Nissan's ever made.
The UAE still get the 4.8 (the best motor available) brand new and they are left hand drive too.
They really are. I've owned a bunch of 4x4's, and as much as I love the older Toyota's, you really can't beat a GU Patrol for toughness....the drivelines are just about bulletproof.
4.8 motor is excellent and can make good power, but they have a severe drinking problem, so I prefer the old TD42.
Now, that would be an awesome collaboration. You guys and mighty car mods.
Dan's happy he's not the only one filling at every servo now
Mum and dad have a lot of answer for with that wiring mess 😂😂
😂😂😂
OH yes Patrol content, so we can hope to see some trips with this car?😍😍. Best 4x4 channel.
Bit disappointed to not see the "scrub daddy" being used during the clean up 😉
😂😂😂 comment of the day , next time 😜
Top video as always. Just a warning in handling radiator coolant. It has a common base chemical called ethylene glycol, which is highly toxic and can damage the kidneys even if swallowed in small amounts. Ethylene glycol can be absorbed in minimal amounts from skin contact or inhalation, however it is most toxic when ingested. Keep up the great content. Your videos are very interesting and educational.
Glycol is a popular murder weapon for disgruntled wives. Works as well as certain mushrooms.
Don't forget transmission fluids brothers
i wish the previous owner of my gq knew that, shagged the synchros from what i assume is putting it in a boghole, now replacing the gearbox in my driveway hahahah
Good vid guys! Definitely keen to see more of what you guys do to the GU!
Don't get rid of the 80 pat.. one day we will build one as well.
Get rid of the LPG. Put long range tank in. Turn into an awesome tourer. Keep up the good work 👍
“Disuse is worse than misuse.”
Thank youuuu sooo much I have a tb45 as well an it was overheating an there’s not that much videos and stuff to how to change thermostat I pulled it apart an that was the problem ahah
Great episode. Make sure to replace the Incab filter after having that mould.
Most underrated Patrol, My tb45 1998 is just over 400ks, replaced all the same items in the video, also replaced the radiator and viscous coupling and fan, only use genuine parts
Had mine for 20 years, run like new, chews the juice thou
SUNDAY MADE! Thanks legends.
Thanks Nick!!
Looking forward to following along with this!
This was great boys! Love learning bits and pieces along the way as well!
Hey guys just a quick lil bit of information if you’d are planning on keeping it for a while I recommend putting it on straight petrol so it runs cooler and is also a little bit more efficient
TB45 insanely basic and reliable engine, mines done nearly 450k but they are known to run up to a million ks. May be slow but just keep on trucking, only issue they have is the cylinder heads dont like lpg
Check the oil cooler above the oil filter, they block up with sludge pretty commonly
Best driveline in the 4x4 world
Well done boys, keep up the great content
Thanks Brian!
Aye if you wanna stop any new mold from forming just grab some kmart dehumidifiers and chuck them under the seats for a few weeks, works wonders for me!
Don't forget the heater hoses as well . Sold a lot of motors because they weren't done .
Good episode boys 👍looking forward to the next one 💯
Great content u guys never disappoint can’t wait for what’s next cheers
If you pull the gas off it you will find it goes a lot better, looks like a impco 225cfm setup.
Think of it like running a 40mm throttle body over the standard 65mm or so.
If they rest they rust great vid guys
Because Patrols are waaaaaaaay better than landcruisers hahahaha cant wait to see the next episodes bro, good on ya
Not sure if sarcasm, but they kind of are lol. Cruisers need too much $$ to fix the driveline to do what patrols do stock. But patrols don’t have nice engines like cruisers
@@rileyhd3473 very very well said patrol engines aren’t great but diffs gearbox axles everything under car is super solid and does very well
After using a Landcruiser Prado comparing it to the Nissan patrol td42, will take the Nissan everytime. Probably the best 4wd I have used. Some other Toyotas have disappointed as well. I think Toyotas are over hyped and overpriced compared to the patrol.
@@rileyhd3473 Landcruiser's have better diesel engines, but the Petrol engines are better in Nissan, go the mighty TB's and VK56!
Wish you’d thrown that new temp sensor in some hot water to show it in action, and I can’t believe you did the struts AFTER putting all the gear in the engine bay.
The biggest obstacle to finding a good second hand Safari or Patrol is that it was owned by a Nissan driver first.
Is that a 'Hiclone' on the intake pipe? If it's still in there, I strongly recommend that you turf it in the bin!!! I think you will be impressed at the extra performance you get out of her.
best start to my day cheers fellas!
Thanks mate!
Back when Nissan made good vehicles
Indeed. Their halcyon days were definitely late 80s to late 90s.
But sadly Nissan lost their way in the early 2000's around the same time they partnered with Renault.
Esa carrocería es brutal 🙌🏼
Gday from Fraser Island Mobile Breakdown Service at Eurong. I think you were up here around Xmas last year? To check thermostat opening correctly, no need to remove, just take off radiator cap and run motor until top hose gets hot and you can see fluid circulating. Cheers
Going to make some great content guys, Well done.
Thanks Bush TV!
Remember to replace the spark plugs for better starting and economy
Would love to see more vids on fixing what’s to come!
Yay! Full Patrol Crew! 👏👏👏
A phoenix rises from the ashes 🔥
Awesome vid guys goodluck with it all
😂😂😂, wait till u drive it offroad and discover how much better it really is...
There is an airbag like reset procedure, just google it that will stop the airbag light flashing.
Can we touch on the old Hiclone!! Hahaha I remember them being the biggest gimmick
Patrol. Best drive train in the business. Period. If only it was a TD 4.2.
I would love to see some TB45 content. I want one, so want to know about em.
Great video boys!
Don't forget to clean the air flow sensor
God imagine aussie arvo's doing a collab with the greatest 4wd channel on TH-cam surely the stars won't align for us 😮
Be careful Patrick , you'll get hooked! 😂
500k km
Sheesh still looks good
Great score for a free loan car. Thanks for sharing
"All the GU paint is good, not many fade"...Not a problem when it just falls off first! Nissans generally have terrible paint.
super cool truck. Just have aTB45 Patrol laying around unused! Gas is going to sap your power as is >500k kms! Did you know they still make the TB45 and TB48 engines. The TB45 is fitted to Nissan Civilian buses for the middle east. TB48s live on in the still in production Y61....or the GU as it is known in Australia. A healthyTB45 should still make 200hp in old money
Nice work lads. 🎉
At that many km, i would have chucked a radiator in would have a lot of growth in the tubes reducing capacity
They don’t make great fuel pumps but their starters are second to none! Lol
Don't judge GUs on this thing. A 4.8 Ti GU is the best GU you can get. Far better than the 4.5 and any of the other engines in a gu
YES mate, about bloody time ahaha
Keep the old hoses and belts as emergency spares
Great work guys
Now let’s do gum
Need an MCM and AA crossover episode
Best 4wd channels
About time you got into a real car Patrick lol
Great work boys
6 months from now the 80 will be for sale
Breaking bad cooking up are we 😂😂😂
Great video! Could you explain what key features or experiences made you switch to the Nissan Patrol? Was it more about performance, comfort, or reliability?
very good work
Hope it will be a permanent swap 😉
Barra swap it…😊
We love Patrols, son 17 years, has 2, 1 doing a Barra swap. He recently bought a 1995 80 series and 2 months later it’s on the market now 😂
Done some great work to it but he says ‘I can’t stand not having a Patrol. He wants to by an SWB one.
Red paint fades really bad on GU bonnet goes first I know !
Red has the longest wavelength, the shortest frequency, and the lowest energy. To appear as red, it has to absorb more wavelength, and this causes a significant fade in the color. Red paint needs UV additives, i was a Painter. But i first noticed this in fishing lures as Red coloured lures totally lose their colour at about 7 meters. Same for Red fish they look silver to white in clear water until they get closer to the surface then magically turn red.
If that thing runs on dedicated gas it's normal for it to take a little bit to start. I had a Holden VF on gas, Holden says upto 10seconds to start is within their tolerance.... having had cars that barely spend 1 or 2 seconds on the starter it's deffs a bit strange hitting the starter for 6-8 seconds
When you say GAS do you mean LPG? Mine is dual fuel. Unleaded and LPG. Unfortunately, I’m rural and many servos are closing LPG pumps. City dwellers are always looked after and regional folks are overlooked.
Yep duel fuel LPG!
I nearly had a heart attack patty when I saw the thumbnail. Thank god you have more brains than your, brother n keeping the Lc 😉😀😅
Cheeky bugger, gave me a heart attack from switching to the pootrol
