when you blow up your TD42 and are up for 8000 on a rebuild and you have a 1UZ-FE in the shed doing nothing, which has only done 60,000km, has double the power in stock form, has half the weight and only cost 6000 complete to swap including original purchase of the engine 2 yrs before, what would u do

so you are saying a toyota driver is a straight bloke and a nissan is a gay bar?
WTF?
Hey, there has been a lot of conversion questions on V8 into patrols asked lately and Bubs is simply helping out, the pictures are very interesting and might throw some more ideas out, surely the sound of 180kw lighter and cheaper sounds good to some, regardless of who made the motor?!!
Another thing is the idea of a VH45 (Q45/Infiniti) conversion has come up a lot lately, this shows it can be done, it also shows the SIZE of the alloy Jap V8s, they are big, they are wide, they are tall. They are big block size, with the overhead cams, deep V and all the intake up on top.
Anyways, thanks bubs, I enjoyed the pictures, and I am sure they will come in handy for someone. Ignore the haters, they are probably jealous.
hands and mums dont count!!!
Has anyone fitted a Q45 / VH45 to a Patrol?
I am going to do an engine swap on a GU 3.0 and am tossing up whether to go the Infinity or 1UZFE route. The Q45 is fairly cheap now (Compared to when this thread was started) and the extra Torque looks good on paper but they are a damn big engine.
I want it to push 35's and I want it reliable.
