Well done Dan, if it is anything like my experience the effect will be 4L/100k less fuel use, 50Hp more and 300nm of torque extra and hardly any EGT. Same colour tooooooo!

haha there's not too much glare from the sun which is what I was worried about, not a super gloss finish. About the only flashing I'll be seeing lol!
changed 4L of auto fluid, must have been well overdue as it's shifting much nicer now. guess i better do another 4L when I drop the engine oil next.
So had the head tested by a 2nd shop that knows their ZD30's well, again passed. They suggested replacing the header tank and rad cap so thats next on the list. Also time for a new belt so it doesn't wake the neighbours when I'm having to start the engine in the middle of the night to drive to work.
Does anyone know for the CRD if disconnecting the spark plugs will cause a code error?
Also may have made an enquiry about a FMIC....

Spark plugs?
Do you mean glow plugs? If so, they only work on CRD if water temp is less than 30 degrees (or maybe it was 33, it was a while ago now I tested this). So anything above that they dont get any power.
haha yup thats the one. been a long day. glow plugs. yeh i've read it was 30 deg.
new header tank ordered GENUINE NISSAN GU Y61 PATROL RADIATOR OVERFLOW TOP PRESSURE TANK ZD30 (MOST YEARS) - Nizzbits
Picked up 2 tubes of Toyota silicon for the fan hub. new belt is awaiting install too. Currently putting the clear coat on some bull bar rod holders that i've colour matched, looks much better than raw aluminium.
yeh checked it recently, looked good at the moment.
colour coded my new rod holders, benefit of having some left over spray paint from the bonnet scoop.
