Last word from Hazard was he was moving his workshop to Brissie so it might be the same car.

that is so dope its rediculous

[Doggy]

I was gonna say the same thing Bartso, I've seen it parked out front of a house around fairfield a few times when i've been going from work to tafe. Havent seen it going though sounds like its a evil piece of vehicle

Just wondering if anyone has seen Hazard. Just wondering if he has made up the kit for fitting a VH45 to a GQ yet???? If so what sort of coin.

[Wendle]

he is still working out stuff with the americans to make the kit viable. the real money is not in getting infiniti v8's into patrols, it is in getting patrol manual gearboxes into infinitis. the infiniti vehicles have never been offered with a manual transmission apparantely.

I would have though that the Nissan VG or VQ (350Z) series boxes would fit. I believe that a VG series is a 6cyl VH series.

We didn't bother investigating due to the cost of the newer Nissan boxes (and trying to bolt a transfer case to it!).

Geez I'd have thought the tremecs and so forth that are already available stateside would be much better gearboxes than the nissan patrol one.

Not complaining though, it will be good if there's a bellhousing option!

I was thinking of going the auto (current 5spd needs a rebuild). But manual would be good then i could keep the pto winch.

Get Hazzard in touch with Sandy at Aus4wd. He custom made up an alloy Bellhousing to mate a VH45 to 4.2L Gq 5 SPd box - Very tough.

Awesome once it was done. Pootrol was the car...

[Snatchy]

I think Hazzard went to see patrool when it was getting the transplant.

I would have thought that no one would want the heavy, long throw patrol gearbox in a nice saloon. plus, the patrol gearbox only comes in 4wds, so not sure how the output would be dealt with? And an auto only vehicle getting space for a clutch pedal etc.?? Would be good if he got the kit for the Patrol going though (unless you have a patrol auto already )

The one you drive past every day sounds like it is his.

He was making the Canberra to Brisbane commute in it a few times, he is back and forth a fair bit.

He was carrying timber on the roof of his patrol, one night and still dragged off a WRX... long story short, the gearbox hates life. I think he is short on time at the moment, hence he hasnt got on the net for a few weeks.

Hazard has seen the ptr00l!

Didnt that red shorty thing blow the motor up?
