Hey guys, Long time since I have posted since I have been out of the country, but I am selling the old 1989 Nissan Safari due to going overseas again but this time a bit longer. Has a PTO winch and multiple other accessories. Have a look: http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/nissan/auction ...

Mate of mine was surfing at Piha today, another fire there too with kids with 10 shooters trying to get the surfers They did get caught though, but another trip for the volunteers.

Headed to Muriwai and went for a surf, then went for a bit of a drive to show the other guys the beach. Ended up pulling three people out of the soft stuff. One was all good, just shouldn't of been in there by himself, got some beers (for the passengers) and some petrol money. But for the other two ...

Were? I can't see any

Can someone explain to me how that engine still worked through that amount of water?

I think it is just one grumpy #### but yeah I should probably just clear it up with the agency to stop it being an issue I was well baffled considering earlier in the day we had a concrete cutter working on the road, a blardy noisy petrol powered trimmer/chainsaw type thing and someone drilling ...

Went for a trip up Muriwai. Lot of fallen trees everywhere and counted 7 cars buried in the sand before Wilsons Road. Guess the storm has moved some serious sand.

CV is broken, so I'm out

Wont be able to do 13/14th, however think my alternator has gone so need to have a look at that this weekend, and who knows if I will be able to get it sorted by the 5th. So don't worry about me.

Actually I can do first week of October, so count me in

I'll be keen for last weekend of September?

Got a '89 LWB Safai (TD42), need to fix the recovery hooks on the rear and I'll be in

First weekend of October is getting a bit close to my dreaded exam (CA)

Changed the oil in the TD42 gearbox ('89 GQ) and got some presents...

Syncro keys I think, went for a drive and couldn't notice anything wrong with the gearbox

Sorry mate didn't sorry pick up on your post till now, if you still need help flick me a PM.

Thought I would change the oil on the pto winch before I use it. I see the previous owner was using mud and water... Looks like it is from woodhill. Might need to design a breather.

Don't really want to change the diff oils now.. scared

Went for a drive down Muriwai and came across this: https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-OVXcbldjNXM/T0nv8IMh9rI/AAAAAAAABNg/By4xOF4Wffs/s721/20120226_162644.jpg https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-d8t_bRjA6oo/T0nv8IdA5xI/AAAAAAAABNg/SPO42w2phdo/s721/20120226_162656.jpg https://lh5.googleusercontent ...

Managed to get the fuel housing all sorted and works great, nice having a new filter in there too.

So just after a fuel gauge 24v.

Thanks

Managed to get a new housing (thanks mudtroll) but unfortunately it is missing one of the brass connectors, anyone know who does fuel line bits? I have tried Enzed hose, Repco, Supercheap, and Segedins and none do fuel line stuff.

Thanks

Hi all, I am needing some parts for my Nissan Safari 24v and was wondering if anyone might have some. Am looking for the housing for the fuel filter (the top bit with the pump). I am also looking for a petrol meter, as mine has gone. If anyone has these, or may know someone who does, please let me ...

I'll be heading up to Woodhill on Sunday morning for some fun. Hopefully not to much panel damage... bit hard with a whale.

Hey guys Have asked a few questions in these forums and thought it would be a bit rude not to introduce myself! So I'm Andrew from Western Springs and have got a Nissan Safari LWB '89 TD42 which I have taken up Muriwai and Woodhill a couple of times. Have got the bug and now got a long list of what ...

Got the Pajero off the tarmac for the first time since May! Just for a gentle cruise up Muriwai for a kitesurf at South Head. Rebuild engine is going good - still running it it. Not much left to do, just need to make up some new cables for winch, and maybe another 500 km of running in. After that ...

Cool thanks for that Peter, never been over to Tukino so should be good.

Did 42nd traverse last Easter and was a blast, looking forward to when that opens again in December.

Hey guys, Heading down to Ruapehu this weekend and the weather is not looking the flashest so thought we might go for a little explore if we can't get up the mountain. I have been searching the forums and see people saying that there are great tracks in this area but can't seem to pinpoint where ...

Cheers for that Mudde, will give them a call tomorrow.

Can anyone recommend an auto electrician in the Auckland area (preferably central) but don't mind travelling if it is for a good service! Only really need simple stuff done, but just don't have the time at the moment, got a 24v Nissan Safari and need to get the electrics cleaned up, and to get a ...

It takes awhile, but just let it run, and if you have a decent size memory card you should be able to get a large area. I have from Auckland north, and it fits on a 4gb memory card.

Also how many zoom options you chose adds to the size as well. Just have to get a feel of what is best for you.

My flat mate is selling a 89 GQ power steering box with pitman. The top bolt has snapped (one that you can tighten / loosen the steering with) and therefore power steering fluid is leaking out. Its on trademe . Pickup is preferred from Grey Lynn, Auckland. Action finishes tomorrow night Any ...

I have got a Samsung Galaxy S, the app I have on the phone is OruxMaps - is free. To get the maps I use a program call Mobile Atlas Creator and it pulls the maps from nztopomaps.com which is also free. So if you have a Android phone with GPS this is a free solution and it works well for me. The maps ...

I got a winch and recovery gear, but only running on AT's. Can try and get out there tonight if needed. Give me a txt / call on 0274504466. I'm in the city so will take at least 40 mins to get out there.

Andrew
