Outer Limits 4x4 Board

A Sigma or Scorpion motor would be simplest, but probably getting rare. At least it's north-south.

A Magna motor is east-west, but can be made to fit without much hassle (if you're only mildly capable). Have a dig around on sigma-galant.com, as they discuss it there a reasonable amount.

Hey all i am after a newer motor (just passed 512k) for my pajero, my question is do i have to get the motor out of a pajero or can i pull it out of one of the many Mitsubishi's that utilised the 4g54, eg a magna or do i specifically need one form a pajero??

thanks in advance.

On a scale of 1->10, i would say about 3.

A motor designed for a sedan pushing a 2.5T 4x4 wasn't Nissan's greatest idea. The Patrol RB30's were also the povo-pack carbied model, not the EFI one's you find in Skylines and VL commodores.

Its fairly easy to put a turbo on them, however you get more ...

Hey all, as the title states, i am interested to know how well the rb30 powered patrols go, things like power, fuel economy and driveability, how do they rate on a 1-10 scale? are they good when the going gets a bit rough?

thanks in advance,

Actually now that you mention it, it has absolutely no leaks, what do you reckon i could get for it?

i'll send you a pm and we'll chat.

Hey all i have a Disco I rossignol that i was going to fix up but unfortunately i no longer have the space, time or money for it, so seeing as i have the motor out already i figured i may aswell see if i can get some money for it in pieces, what do you the greater rover community think the parts are ...

sure was, it turned out it was the reverse light switch earthing out, and it took the gearbox wiring harness with it too, now i have to get one of those aswell as a new switch LOL.

the second i turn the key on it pops i don't have to turn the indicator on, i will have a look at the trailer plug wiring the second i get home from work, thanks for the heads up, is there anywhere else i should look?

thanks

Hey all my old pajero has been a rock until today, it has blown the fuse for the indicators/guages and when i try to replace the fuse it simply blows as soon as the key gets to on, i have replaced the flasher unit and it still does it i am wondering if there are any problems that are a common cause ...

Toorak Tractors in Melbourne sell the manifold spacers so you can use a 3.5/3.9 efi manifold, some have had reasonable success using the 3.5 efi gear with so fuel pressure tweaks but an aftermarket ecu is your best bet for tuneability, if you are good with a soldering iron then megasquirt diy ecu's ...

Hey all i was just wondering when converting a 4.4 to efi can the setup off a 3.5 be used ? and if so where can i get the adapter plates?

thanks

thanks mate well i guess i'll get some new correctors aswell LOL.

I think with a 32/36 it will depend what its off whether it'll work right straight off the bat, but the jet sizes you have will do fine, i have the same. Be careful with the air correctors though, i have had fun getting them right. :) I think mine a 145's? did you use 145's for both? last time i ...

I just did a 34ADM weber conversion, and if my motor wasn't so stuffed, it would be great. There is improvment, but not a big difference because of the condition of my engine.

Still a good easy conversion though. i actually bought a 34ADM today, i have previously built one of these so i think it ...

Yeah true a mikuni would be alot simpler, now i wonder which is the better of the 2 mikuni's the resin bodied one or the metal bodied one? i have a resin one and i think it is the culprit behind all my woes, can i use an older metal mikuni? i.e do they have the same water lines etc etc as the resin ...

is there any major differences between the 2 carbs that you know of?

thanks

the motor already has extractors so i guess it breathes a little better than stock, what weber would you recommend?

thanks

Hey all i have a question or 2 for anyone who may know the answer, is the 32/36 a good weber to use for a pajero conversion?

thanks in advance.

28D, suffix E up to VIN LA 081991 = 1.221:1 high range (32mm wide gears, narrow dog spline)

3.5's didnt change much, pre 82/83 they are low comp then went to 9.35/1 and then went low comp again in 86 with efi introduction, try and use the hi comp if you can - they have larger valves as well.
thx for the info mate, i just have one more question, will all the accessories bolt on like ...

As the title states foks i am after a bit of information on the remote transfer from an MQ patrol, Are they a nice strong transfer or are they weak as.......well you know? would they work well in a rover? being that a rover is full time 4wd? any info would be greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance ...
