Would love to bring my 2003 Nissan shorty back but can't register in nz and too much cost in converting to rhd. Will post pics later of all my 4wd 2nissan patrols, Toyota pardon 07 and jeep wrangler oh forgot Suzuki 450 quad racers as well which I am bringing back.

Am looking for a Nissan shorty when I get back.

Thanks for the welcome guys, Think you are right it will be hard to adjust but will get there eventually, biggest thing for me and wheeling is not being able to go where and when I want the only rule here is if it is fenced no go anything else is ok.
