Re: Project Torque Zilla
It looks really nice
But why did you use the nissan transmission ... ?
Btw. what specs does it have ? (Gears, Gear Ratio and so on ... ) and the transfercase ? Is it electrical shifting ?

This transmission is from a stock Nissan Patrol (Emirates call the Nissan Patrol NISSAN) 90s model (the ones came with 4.2 engines)MalteJK wrote:It looks really nice

These transmission are able to handle big amounts of HP & torque (1000+ HP if used wisely)
The transfer case comes with the same transmission.
Now , because the diff. hub (R&P) of the Nissan Diff is on the passenger side you have to use the transfer case of the Nissan as well.
the ratio ..... I'm not sure about it but a V8 will make anything work

Before putting the Lady Gaga in I had a little chat with a Murror guy who pulled me over and asked me >> What have you done to this car Do you have a permission to do this Have you taken this car for inspection
Im not sure but, i might make it look more stock by putting back the stock bumpers
regarding the updates ....
Brake lines installed.
minor maintenance to the front diff done.
new thicker U joint installed to the rear diff.
Drive shafts received from the machine shop after shaving off A LOT .
transferring the fuel lines done.
custom transmission support fabricated.
welds on the diffs checked.
electric fan arived but still in Al Ain
Need to re do the exhaust and custom make a new fuel tank heat protection.
Re connect the hand brake.
This support is going to be powder coated
Came back to work & will stay till 29th Nov'2011 & hopefully by then all small bets and peaces are sorted out.

Re: Project Torque Zilla
Hi WildFire,
Where have you had the fabrication work done? Frankenstein is suffering axle tramp (wrap) and I want to get a ladder made up.
You mentioned "Patriot work shop in musaffah" - where is this? Do you happen to have a GPS ref?
Regards
