Hi Guys anyone interested in taking over my project GQ, just have not go the time to finish it! Costs involved so far Vehical R43000, Mags R3500, New Interior R5000, Spares from David R3000, so it owes me about R54500.(roof rack and RTT is coming off)

What I have done so far is the interior (carpets, seats, door panels, roof lining ect), fitted the mags and given it a good clean!
What still needs to be done, fitting of the spares got from David, Two rear windows, side lights, trim ect and give it a good service
Extras on the GQ that can not be seen is a 50mm lift, 140L fuel tank, duel battery system ect

Also willing to swop for a completed 4.5 GRX if anyone is interested with some cash put in from my side!

Ian - Me thinks you are going to battle to find a 4.5 that is in as good a condition as that GQ with so little left to do... :mytwocents:

Pity I have a GL and not a GRX.... :thumbdown:

If I where to arrive home with another or different Patrol I wouldn't even get to sleep on the couch.... It would be the kennel at best..... I love the look of the GQ's but am in for over R 250 k on mine so I get buried in it :rolling: :rolling: :rolling:

How does the power, performance, fuel economy etc. compare between the 4.2 & 4.5?

Not much in it, in my opinion, I would say the 4.5 better on the open road but the 4.2 better in the ruff stuff but both of these I would put down to gearing rather than engine power :mytwocents:
