I'm after a full length Roof Rack for a GU.

Prefer Half Cage, reasonable to good condition.

For use with a rooftop tent.

No particular brand. I'm in Bentleigh, Vic 3165.

Thanks!

There you go, I didn't even know that Nissan were already putting V6's into their cars!

I will document anything that I do, just don't be disappointed if nothing shows up for a while...

and yes, the Jeep V6 is very inyteresting!

You are right Taslucas, I will have to go it alone as anything that anyone tells me here wont necessarily be what I want.

Yes Hodge, I had considered the toyo V8, but after driving one for three...

The only reason that I have started this post is to see if anyone else has considered putting a different engine into the car if it went bang.

From all the magazines that I have read i can see...

No more than the valiant that I used to have! :offtopic:

I want to be able to do a trip to the cape and some other top end destinations, do some local tracks and use the car for touring/camping.

I have got the gear to lift it either two or four inches...

Looking for another engine in case mine goes bang... I like the idea of a V6 cos they are generally smaller displacements (smaller capacity means better fuel economy) and smaller in physical size.

No need to get to Fisticuffs here... But there does seem to be some sort of disparity here...

I like the sound of a twin turbo version of anything, especiallly if I can get my hands on one.

The LS is nice, but itis not diesel, hence why I haven't been considering it.

Duramax is awe inspiring but I didn't want to spend that much.

Diesel Chevs are new to me but I heard of them just...

Okay, enough reality... I am still going to look into it further... I guess I'll start with Marks and see what happens from there.

Now I know that you are all taking this VERY seriously but really, what kind of a shoehorn am I going to need for that! :animierte-smilies-f

The 6V92T are a big and heavy engine... I am looking for something a bit less "truck like" or "Ship like"

Fair enough there are a number of points that you have raised that may be issues, but how much different is it from putting a LS in? (and people put themin quite often..)

Hence why I am still...

Okay, what other V config DIESELS might be suitable a s a transplant?

So, anyone... what other V config engines might be suitable as a transplant?

I thought that it was the 2.5s that had the issues

MB, I know what you mean about paperwork tricky... I am quite sure that it will take a lot of 'fiddling' to get this through ADR, but thye biggest plus is that thecapacity is below that of the...

Yes the Jeep engine does sound pretty good...

Here are some stats:
Configuration: 60 degree V-6
Head/Block Material: Aluminum cylinder head, Compacted Graphite Iron engine block

Okay, I'll check 'em out...

I was thinking more along the lines of something that is not so "late model" (read: cheaper)

Evil Twin, Why not (specifically)?

I've read that this same engine has been used in other vehicles, I haven't heard too many people complain about their discos (apart from the fact that theyre landies in disguise) and Ive seen plenty...

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone else has considered this engine swap.

A 2.7 V6 Tdi engine from any later model (unfortunately Ford) Territory into a GU patrol.

I know that its a...

You may find that you have a leaking intercooler. I had cleaned mine this arvo and as soon as I started the car to drive off, the high pitched squeal began between the rev range that you stated...
