    Daltons in Geelong South have a Dyno, not sure what he is like with ZDs. There is another Tuner in North Geelong Diesel Performance Centre or something. ProDiesel in Drysdale i think but he does not have a Dyno, he tunes on the road though.

    The ZD is a bit of a Turd mate, make sure you have your NADS sorted then have it tuned. Good luck, have fun.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Yep Daltons was the recommendation I followed about 10 years ago (probably from MudRunner) with our TD42. They are wizards in the black art of tuning TD42’s (& very possibly other things too). They gave me exactly what I asked for & it has never needed touching again & from memory their prices were very reasonable. Fitting a 3” exhaust & taking our car there was the best thing we ever did to it. I’d say they would be worth talking to about your ZD & if it’s not their thing I reckon they’ll have good info on where else to go.
