Not much to update, she's had a thorough service, engine wise and brakes. Few bits and bobs like a new water pump and down pipe replaced. That annoying speedo buzzer was removed when I changed the speedo fascia due to a broken speedo needle. Thank goodness!! Just ordered some new tyres and wheels and a fair few new bushes. I was looking for my VIN number so I could check that my truck has been correctly registered when imported as I think it may have been registered as a Terrano 2. Not good for insurance if something happens, God forbid. I've actually stopped driving it until it's sorted. Anyway in terms of VIN numbers this is all I can find but it's not the standard 17 digit VIN number, any ideas?

Okay for simplicity sake would I be able to do a auto to manual swap with this vehicle as a donor? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/112157074275 Also would I be able to use the intercooler etc on my WD21. I have a 93 TD27t. Thanks

Hi, So not much has happened since I've owned my latest WD21, bar put a couple of thousand miles on her and given her a good service and new water pump etc and a couple other minor bits. My next bit is to switch to a manual. I would like to buy a donor vehicle so that I have all the bits I need in one place rather than hunting around, as I haven't really got the time as I'm coming to the end of my Paramedic course and it's getting hectic with exams and submissions etc! So basically and bearing in mind I'm in the UK, apart from hoping a manual WD21 comes up for sale, (extremely rare)seen one in two years of looking. Just missed it may I add, gutted! What other vehicles,if any can I use the gearbox from. Mines a TD27t. Would things like the Terrano 2 work?Mistral(again rare), certain years? Any help appreciated as always. Thanks Aaron

Thanks, I'll have a look into that.

Also does anyone have a link to any threads about recommended upgrades to these trucks? Someone once told me about upgrading/using the intercooler from the Terrano 11? Any weak points to these trucks I should address/improve? Thanks

Thanks I would have still had the other one if someone hadn't decide it'd be fun to turn across my path when I was travelling at 60 mph, bad times, poor truck!

Ah yeah googled a bit more and it seems they were 15x7 offset 25/back spacing 5". I'm going to get some 15x7 et0/back spaced 4" with some 31x10.5's on. I assume my research is okay and that set up will work well?

I can't think what else the chime would be, it comes on at 50 and is continuously chimes until you drop back under it. The cluster will be coming out so will have a look. Hopefully it'll be simple. Thank you for the welcome. Oh does anyone know the specs to the wheels I had on my last WD21, I can't remember for the life of me. Was it 16x8 et0?

Hi, As its an import from Japan, I assume it's their standard speed warning buzzer. Some goggling suggests it'll be a little silver box on the back of the cluster/tacho? Anyone had a Jap import with the same issue? Aaron

Hi guys, Just picked up my second Wd21 and drove the 260 miles home nice and uneventfully! There are a few minor bits needing done but first thing is first...... How do I get rid of the warning chime at 50mph?? I've had a Google and can't seem to find anything. This seems like the place to be in terms of the knowledge on this forum, so I'll be around for a long time as I'm never getting rid of this one. (My last was written off thanks to an idiot driver) Here is the ol girl just after purchase.
