Forgot to introduce myself, sorry and hello
Posted: Sun May 27, 2018 6:26 pm
My name is Reino and i am 28 from Namibia and studying engineering in Windhoek and my home is in Swakopmund.
I am afrikaans but because i have and have had many english friends, my english is very good and i don't have a language preference. Depends with who i'm talking to.
And yes i am single, if any ladys reading this want to contact me feel free. (lol just joking)
My current car (and my first off roader) is a 2000 3.2 3rd gen long wheel base.
And my other is a 2006 250sx and a 1984 tt600 (the tt is in boxes and ready to be built one day).
I have been around 4x4 for a long time and driven them, my father is a geologist so it comes with the occupation.
I dont have a favorite car and since i am an engineering student (soon to have my degree and know my way around a grinder and welder) i wont mind building my dream car out of the pajero. The pajero is a very good base to start with.
Upgrades i want to do first are
1. upgrade audio
2. Remove rust and make the car look new even underneath
3. Replace the springs and shocks with something rebuildable like the robinsons monotube stuff
4. build my own steel front and rear bumpers and side steps/rock sliders
5. redo my brake hardlines
6. make space in new bmper for better inter cooler
Future stuff
1. Active antiroll
2. reduce weight with carbon doors bonnet etc. (non structural stuff)
3. improve suspension geometry and make the car wider
4. different diesel engine, m57, om648, om642 and vw 3L tdi are under consideration
5. better brakes
