Having said that i would say an LS swap would make heaps more sense into a Patrol.

GTSBoy Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I'd say that any RB build into a Patrol is a horrible waste. Big lumpy tank needs a big lumpy motor. LS is smart option for defs. If you must have Nissan, start at VH41 or 45 and work your way up from there. 41 with a turbo on 8-10 psi will be enormously torquey. See Skid Factory for turbo diesel shenanigans in Patrol. See MCM for turbo VH41 in Stagea. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477781-gday/#findComment-7910964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiwiRS4T Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 People have built RB30sfor very little money - just rings and bearings. The trigger kits etc are not essential but you are still talking quite a few thousands and I have no idea what it would take to put it into a patrol. With about 2.5 tonnes to shift it would take a massive power boost to make it goes fast and then I would think it would be pretty scary to keep on the road. Do some searching - someone has done this before - don't know how this worked out.
