Aussie Nissan Patrol - Pics of rear storage system

G'day all...
New to the forum and thought id share my 2005 Patrol with you all. Ive had it for about 18 months now and been slowly building it up to what you see now..

Its a 4.2ltr intercooled turbo diesel, 5 speen manual
this is after i just got it -

at that stage i had
TJM Alloy bullbar
IPF spotties
GME UHF radio
Snorkel and rhino roof racks

Then came the 5" RidePro ROX lift
35" Mickey T MTZ's
front locker (already has rear lsd)
ARB on board compressor

and as it sits now..
Lightforce XGT's
17" Procomp series 97 wheels
Rola/Rhino roof rack

These were taken during a recent trip through the Simpson Desert

and a pic with my Dad's 3 ltr Patrol

Is the flag on the back a dune flag or an antenna with a flag?

What's the stock weight of a Patrol? I love my Navara, but wished only that it were more compact and lighter. How do you like the engine?

What part of OZ? Anywhere near SA?

Its a dune flag mate, i usually have it on the front but the mount broke off after the second week of corrigations!

Stock weight is 2334kg's i think... as for the engine LOVE IT! so glad i went for the 4.2!

Im in Victoria, 8 hours from the closest SA border

Nother victorian here

love the look of a series 4, ive got a series 3 4.2, never did trust the migthy handgrenade...i mean 3l patrol!

she looks great, how do you find the 5" lift? ive got only a 2 (OME) but im looking for something a bit bigger, fit 33's comfortably.


oh and if you havent blank off the EGR before it does nasty things to the motor, its next on my to do list and cost's bugger all

Cheers
