Should have moved it to chit chat.
For the fuel economy get the 3.0lt petrol patrol and put standard 4.8lt diesel landcruiser diffs under it, it's a straight bolt up job. Put a turbo on the engine with a straight through 2.25" system with a highclone fitted straight after the turbo. An atomic polariser will help but may be hard to find. And if you want more efficiency fit a GM 6 speed gearbox although crawler gear may be required to get the best gearing.

So is the original question "Which is better a GQ Patrol with an RB30 petrol, or an 80 Series Cruiser with a 1HZ 4.2l diesel?" Or have I misinterpretted?
Edit: Sorry just read the title. Don't think there was a 4.2l petrol 80 series Cruiser. There was the 3F which was 4.0l and the 4.5l in the later models.

if you're talking about an RB30 patrol and a 3F cruiser, the cruiser will be batter to drive on road but the RB30 patrol will be lighter on fuel, should be by about 25-30%
