Hey MB,

Been hearing this from a few people, guessing this might be the case plus needing to re adjust the boost controller to lower the exhaust manifold pressure.
Apologies has been ages...
Hey Guys,
Recently bit the bullet & got my ZD30Di fully rebuilt by an engine reconditioner, installed engine back in the car with everything as per before the rebuild.
But on the first...
Hey Guys,
Have seen a few post around of people mentioning using ARP head studs for in their ZD30DI builds. On a bit of a google search I can see that Diesel central do a kit

Alright bit of a late reply, but got under the patrol this afternoon to check over the steering. Everything seems to be in working order, steering coupling was in good condition. Also checked for...
Good point, haven't checked the steering coupling yet as its a bit of a PITA to get to. But worth checking it, will have a look at that & take the steering wheel off over the weekend & report back in
Thankfully still have standard panhard rods, but thanks for the heads up
As in when you are driving straight down the road, the wheel now sits at a 45 degree angle rather than straight (see attached photo above)
Both the drag link & the tie rod are road safe adjustable...

Trying to work out how to upload some photos of the pitman arm/sector shaft. The forum photo uploader doesn't seem to be working?
Hey guys,
Trying to diagnose what I've broken/bent on my 2005 GU4 patrol. Went 4wding the other day & was going up a section when both of the front wheels came off the ground, the front then came...
I used brand new OEM bolts & cleaned/chase the threads/holes in the block. So don't think it was anything to do with that
Hey Guys,
Just installed the replacement ZD30DI cylinder head over the weekend, followed the Nissan workshop manual to a tee.
But with one exception being, i used ARP ultra torque lube on the new...
Was just curious for the most part, as if i ever have to replace the fan in the future might as well upgrade (Have seen a few fans break apart from being perished/old)
Digging up an old thread, But wondering does anyone know if a G35 fan will fit onto a ZD30DI viscous hub?
Digging this up again, i see that some people say to leave the swirl flap as it will aid with fuel economy. Curious if anyone has done a before & after test to prove they lost economy after doing...
Awesome good to hear! thanks for clarifying that.
Hey Mudski,
Bit of a thread dig, but just wanted to get a bit more info if possible.
When you say "it is all in the ECU side of things" do you mean that you need to hook up a scan tool to update...
Awesome thanks for your input Mudski, thought that might have been the case with the ebay heads. I was looking at going a genuine Nissan head but it appears you can only get bare heads & have to buy...
Hey guys,
Am halfway through swapping the head on my Patrol, been searching around for aftermarket heads.
From what i can see there is a plethora of people offering no name brand cylinder heads...
Cracker write up, helped out heaps!
