Its plenty, it only serves to hold a little moisture and stop the soil compacting. Look up the chillichump channel he has some good videos about mix ratios and why.

Thanks, coming from you that really is saying something. I'll be keen to see what sort of harvest bulk you get from your monster

Gardening is cheaper than driving the van around.! I can't fish at the moment because of old-age ailments (elbows and shoulders etc ) so gardening keeps me sane-ish :)

Private access via forestry

@@racepics any chance you could share the location? Looking at going there over New Years

@@liamparrkker I was there as a guest of someone who had access. and that was 5 years ago. I don't know if access is still possible. Your best bet would be to ask at one of the local shops. They might know who you need to contact.

Yes its pretty much a yard ornament now that our premium gas is over $3 a litre ($14 a gallon)

Unfortunately going away from the established tracks is forbidden here. We are not permitted to run through uncharted areas.

@@racepics I beg your pardon, I did not know that it is forbidden to leave the road. And what is this park or nature reserve, what is this regulated zone? "Nth Island, NZ" - i didnt understand where exactly it is.

@@user-xl7rt2lg5b Yes it is in the central plateau, a volcanic wasteland, but still protected by the environment agencies. It is very sad that even in this country we are being restricted to less driving areas every year. Even many beaches are now closed to vehicles :(

@@user-xl7rt2lg5b The answer you were looking for is North Island, New Zealand.

​@@evanray8413 thanks for cutting through the red tape and answering the question 😊

There are several good Facebook Groups for the Delica. Pick one specific to the country you are in for info on the legalities of mods.

Its a Toyota 1UZ-vvti V8

Make that Golden Retrievers. Mine adores our mail carrier too.

? No idea what that is. A computer game of some sort?

About 20L/100km

@@racepics Thank you!

It was a facebook group event - hopefully there will be another

@@racepics only kidding, I'm in Australia lol. But looks like you had a great day

The whole sordid saga is listed here www.grisoghetto.com/t3719-dropped-a-cylinder?_branch_match_id=708840610772772505

About 15mpg

The Mitsubishi transmission (AW4) and the Toyota one (A340) are the same Aisin Warner supplied unit. Just use the Toyota bell-housing on the Mitsi Trans. Toyota engine mounts.

Its a great place to fish and camp, just annoying when you find rubbish left around :( I always take extra rubbish bags and clean up around where I camp.

Don't know, I have not timed it. Plenty fast enough for a 4x4 Van..

Unfortunately we didn't catch a lot on that trip, and a lot of what we did catch was during the night. Later videos in my channel show some good fishing in the far north.

Xrox bars - Dobinsons 2inch lift kit on 31x10.5x15 www.surfcaster.co.nz/my-van/

Usually just pilchards - or if you're targeting Smoothounds use prawns or crab

This was on private property at Cape Runaway, but try Lottin Point just down the road. The views are just as spectacular :)

They are Kilwell 222 rods - one has a Penn 525mag and the other has a Diawa 7HT

oh wow lol sounds like good quality gear.

Once we could reliably catch ptenty of Gurnard from the shore around Hawke's Bay - not anymore. I took this video because its such a rarity these days.

oh thats a shame. :(

racepics I just saw one of these today at the beach. I live in connecticut and I never thought I would see one where tons of people are swimming.

Its held them back for the last 2 years (thankfully) The problem is, its a ride-in and turn-around driveway in order to get at the letterbox. If they ever got through I'd never get away in time.

Yep, They may be all bark though?

I don't really want to test that theory :-/
