Hi all, I haven't been an active member on this forum for quite a few years, since I got rid of my D21 . (sad face). I got an email today from this forum, from someone named 'NAVARAFORUMUSER', with some detailed questions about interchangeability about gearboxes. Gmail seems to think this...

Ok, went to put an oil filter on the Terrano TD27T going into the Nav. Picked up one form Supercheap, a huge thing, but won't go on the shaft! Seems the hole in the filter is too small fo rit (story of my life:yeahright:). Are there two different size filters for this engine, or is there...

Just came across this post on another site. Seems a pretty thorough documentation on replacing an open diff with an LSD diff. Seeing as I have the Terry at home, which may well have an LSD diff sitting in it, thought I'd add it here for future ref...

Anyone know where in Brisbane I might acquire a cheap transmission jack adapter for a trolley jack?

There's been a few threads on this recently, but I got cracking on my conversion last night, so I thought I'd start a new thread here track the progress and make notes. I'll turn it into a proper build thread at some stage if I make some reasonable progress :) I'm sure most of those interested...

Tyres on the front are good, the read tyres are almost bald. I've got a couple of wheels and tyres from an old Terrano lying around that should fit. Thing is, the Nav wheels are 16" and the Terry wheels are 15" rims. Tyres are the same diameter overall. Can I legally put different wheels on...

I've got to get the injectors from my TD27 tested, and the only place in town that can do it has lost their test equipment. Anyone recommend someone in Qld that I could post them to get tested?

Got the vacuum pump off the back of the alternator. It's been leaking oil, so I thought I'd pull it apart to have a look see, and post some pickies here. There are 2 o-rings to change, and when I get some measurements, I'll add them in here. Not so much oil that I think it will affect the...

Saw in town today a 92 Navara dual cab, blue in colour, sporting a white tub, with a 3.0 TDi Turbo sticker on the back. Now, obviously not an original tub. Are the D22 and D21 tubs generally interchangeable, or is some modification needed to get them to fit?

Found a fellow across the ditch doing just this, in fact the RB25DET. I did consider doing this myself (an RB30, actually, but same size block etc) at one stage, but decided it was too difficult - the motor is just too long to fit in the engine bay. Having read what he is doing to get it to...

Being a diesel noobie, I'm determined to strip down this TD27T before installing it in the nav, jsut to get my head around it and so on. Plus, good opportunity to make sure all gaskets are up to scratch, get rid of oil leaks etc. So, first questions. Aim was to remove the injectors and take...

Can anyone confirm the size of the socket needed to manually turn over a TD27? I've lost my calipers, but seems to be about 40mm. Would this be right?

I made up one EGR blanking plate for the TD27T sitting in the shed, but never got around to making the second. I found one for the ZD30 on ebay for a couple of bucks, and it looked basically the same. Given that the ZD30 dump pipe I got fit right on it I thought it worth a gamble. Well, it's...

Hi all, A general non-Navara question for the brains trust here. Went to help my Brother in Law whose car (Festiva) was running roughly and blowing large amouts of smoke after he had topped up the oil. Seems he had topped it up by about 4 litres too much! Spark plugs came out covered in oil -...

Currently changing engine and auto box from an early wd21 Terrano into ol' faithful (whose gearbox is currently less than faithful). The Terrano auto box has an ecu which lives behind the sidewall of the boot area. Do the auto boxes in the D21s also have an ecu, and if so, where do they live...

So we've been through this in NSW recently and the this article about the federal government today Safety rules just a load of bull say Northern Territorians as bullbars face ban | The Australian No evidence given the government is thinking about it but they have dine some bloody stupid...

All right, how the hell do you remove the dash from these things. I've been out there for about 2 hours, I've got the speedo out, the radio and a/c control out, the glove box out, several dozen screws removed, but something along the top of the dash near the windscreen is holding it all in...

Quick question, what's the story with the fuel tank and pump in a turbo diesel? Replacing the fuel injected KA24 with a TD27T with mechanical injection, but what about the tank? Low/Hi pressure pump? Baffled tank or not important? Currently I've got a non-baffled tank with an external surge...

A nice site with a rundown on parts of the KA24E engine, with some pics. That's all Nissan KA24E Engine.......

Accidental? Wasn't particularly looking for a 4WD, just a well maintained dual cab for a growing family. I bought this 86 Navara about 5 years ago, after looking at too many poorly maintained, oily, rusty, crappy mid-90s couriers, tritons and toyotas. This one had been a top of the range...
