If Nissan comes to their senses and ditch the 3litre for the red donk in the Patrol I would consider trading in the ol 4.2

I'd trade my Toyota in straight away if they put the Cummins donk in an all coil GU ute. Won't happen though, Nissan couldn't be arsed.

I'll have mine with leaves and a gvm upgrade, but same here. Meanwhile I'm still refusing to buy a v8 cruiser.

I have growers that have the new V8 Cruiser and the older 4.2TD's. All of them have had issues with their newer ones and most wish they'd stuck with their old one.

 

[weedkilla]

I can reel off the list of problems with the 6's, none of them were fixed for the v8, but they sure added some new ones.

The 100 series TD cruiser engine is better in many ways than the 8 TD. The 8 is too thirsty!

Do not be tempted to get a Nirvana. ..disasters.

ill just fix up my hilux i think

 

[Lisnm8]

Maybe you guys should get the foton tunland with cummins engine
Wish I could ditch the Holden wagon and get a 4wd but the ole wagon with rear seats down still fits a ***** load more than any other car.

There is so much room for improvements in the ute/medium wagon T/D 4x4 area. If Mitsubishi did a challenger on rails with a 3.2 for roughly 50k they would walk off the shelves but unlikely to ever happen because it would pillage Pajero sales. Same with a pathfinder with the 6T/D but just like the earlier 4.2 they used to put into patrols Nissan just love walking away from good donks. Which prolly leaves the Dmax 3l T/d wagon my preference for when the ML dies.

The only reasons we have all these new engines are exhaust emissions.

The manufacturers wouldn't change if it wasn't for that, and we'd still have TD42T's, 1HD-FTE's, etc.

Ballast Led Shot, you 1/2 fill the fuel and oil tank of mac's so they don't roll over on the ground idling.

Would be best if they went with an inline instead of a V8, something like a 6BT Cummins would out perform anything here atm, nice and reliable and go forever (oops, can't have something that will last) Prior to Dodge installing the Cummins they were a bit of a joke for a truck in the states, utter crap, then with the Cummins powering them around they became something worth owning

If you're really cashed up, you could always get a 6.6 litre Duramax V8 with Allison auto. The donk was actually designed by Isuzu for GM. Pity I'd need to rob a bank to afford it though.

Talking about awesome utes, who's excited for this one?!? Its going to be 20mm wider than the old one so you can almost fit 3 blokes in the back! Sweet
