Owned and toured around Australia by my grandfather from brand new, built motor and safari kit installed.
I have started building this to suit my needs. I usually tow a large boat and occasionally go off road.

TD42 with a GTurbo Grunter green wheel and Gturbo manifold running 16 psi with a front mount Safari Inter-cooler.
280X250 mm PDW Trans Cooler.
10mm injector pump maxed out minimal smoke.
Safari Snorkel.
3" exhaust from turbo back with large muffler so it doesn't sound like a tug boat.
HPD catch can.
Fresh Rebuilt RE4 Gearbox

Red Arc gauge that has boost, EGT and trans temp.
Digital temp gauge for radiator temps.
