Pajero Gen1: Your Build!

[Guest]

Hi,

Write in here what your build is! (ie, Tourer, pig, off-road ect)

Mods:
Bullbar

My Build:
Tourer/Small time off road. Can get to all of the good camp spots without needing to climb up cliffs. Kills on sand and often pulls out Cruisers and Patrols stuck in sand (Mainly due to driver error however the look on the face is priceless!) 4wd has been in family since 1992. Engine rebuild 300,000kms. I have added accessories as needed however the car is starting to show its age as more parts are starting to deteriorate. The car holds sentimental value and I hope I can keep her in tip top shape (consider it an early restoration).

1st Camping trip



Current

[kreyzgym]

Bit of a late bump. Started doing things to my NG lately so may as well.



Here it is the weekend I bought it. 1990 NG V6 manual, 240k or so k's and a shiny paintjob and immaculate engine bay. I've had it for a few months now without too much changing. But I've recently started doing things to it.

ordered:
Snorkel
Work Crag 15x7 ?0 (on their way from Japan)
PIAA white 5" lights w/ black covers
antenna relocation too bullbar and shiny D shackle oooooh!
2" Fulcrum suspension lift

soon:
roof cage
HID kit, low k
Perhaps bigger tires & body lift
roof spotlight for camping


In the end I want a capable camper that I can use for work (I've just started as an apprentice plumber) and have some fun with. It's in respectable nick at the moment so I'd like to keep it that way, but eh, it's made to have fun with, so why not? I'd love to get a larger exhaust of some kind eventually too, as it seems to be quite slow.. but we'll see..

Here it is in the car yard the day I first saw it.






And at a friends' house up near Yarra Junction

Photos - you and your rig

[wildturkeycanoe]

Model: NF 5 seat LWB EXE
Year: 1988
Engine: 2.6 Petrol 4G54 Manual 5 speed.

Purchase price: Estimate around $3000 as I straight swapped a 96 Camry V6 with clutch problems for it. [I got the better deal though]

Mods:
34 ADM Weber Carby conversion [Adapter plate, electric fuel pump etc.]
Hi-tech Headers on standard exhaust.
Mongoose central locking kit.
Pioneer MP3/CD player
Roof racks
225/75R16 Hercules Terra Trac rubber

General info:
Daily driver for work/Camping and fishing rig. Had it for 8 months now and LOVE having a car that I can fix myself. Original owner's service log book -spent it's entire life in Canberra, hail damage from new [wonder if they got a discount]. 1st trip away with the family we went on some serious rutted out trails, boggy detours around fallen pine trees and unused blackberry covered fire trails. Then I tried to get to an old camping spot and ended up with the chassis rail sitting on a tree stump [front left wheel in the air, you can see the damage under passenger door in the photo]. To no avail, she pulled straight out of the mess I got her in. Serious carb issues led to the Weber transplant, but now she roars like a lion. Pic below shows the marriage of Ford and Mitsubishi air cleaners and the tyres. Hoping to get more off road time soon, now that brand new rubber adorns her stylish standard rims.

Recent expenses: (Last 2 months)
New tires $740 fitted
New clutch master cylinder $158
