Hi my names Garry from canberra Australia

Post by Rotorboy68 »

I just bought a 1991 Holden (isuzu) rodeo with a aust star motorhome fitted. It's amazing. It's got 123000ks on the chassis and only 150 on a brand new engine . It is a cab over style home with a bed over the cab and another at the opposite end which becomes a cafe style table and benches. I'm also a Mazda rotary fanatic and own three turbo rx7's . I'm so keen to learn more about my camper an its limits so I think I've come to the right place ! Ta

Hi Garry and welcome to the forum. I did a bit of work with turbo rotaries quite a few yrs ago, they are rather limited to power increases before they become hand grenade engines, end case cracking and rotor chatter shattering tip seals was the most common problem.

Tell us more about your Rodeo motorhome, a few photos as well would be good. What improvements do you think need looking at, like batteries, solar, more water capacity... or is it just the way you like it already?
