Re: New 3L diesel patrol

PM Bingham about his 05/06 3L and the hand grenade it turned into! :D

Agree the Common Rail ones seams to have ironed out most issues - but still hear people having issues with the idler tension pully, esp post creek crossings.

Would be interesting to talk to someone who works for Nissan about ...

Re: New D22 Navara YD25 common rail

the yd25 in the d22 is tuned for alot of hard work related km's
peak power means nothing in a work truck.

buy it, put fuel in it, work it for 5 years buy another one.

Re: !help! GU 06 3.0L engine shake diesel

Have seen this problem previously on my son in law's DX 3 litre Patrol.
In fact he voiced his concern to the Nissan dealers when he took it in for servicing.
They couldn't find the fault. :bad-words: DUH ? Not a suprise.
The following weekend we found the fault after the flywheel collapsed. Dual ...

Re: 80 Series BOSS 260 conversion, anyone seen it done???

VooDoo how does the Boss 260 make less power than the LS1, both can be tuned in stock form to nearly 300kw and possibly 550 Nm of torque.


Its always made less power than the LS1, takes up twice as much room and weighed twice as much. They don't rev as well, upgrading cams is 4 times as expensive ...

Re: d40 advice

they are either built in spain or thailand
thailand ones are better, check it doesnt have a DPF, these use more fuel but are only on the yd25 autos and not all of them.

Re: 80 Series BOSS 260 conversion, anyone seen it done???

its a wide engine, could be done. A body lift would help to clear the heads.
xr6 turbo engine would be easier.
boss engines have to rev, not like a normal v8, carring the weight of an 80 will get boring after a while.
If you want a late model ford v8, i wouldnt go past a 5.6 out of a au pursite ...
