    Most K's without a Engine rebuild

    My Son in Law has a 1991 Gq (4.2. Petrol Not EFI) with 560,000 on the Clock and the Motor has not been touched other than Serviceing. The Compression is even across all 6 Cylinders and the old girl just purrs along .
    I am sure that someone has Nissan that has covered more K's without a rebuild.
    Lets hear about them

    The guy who bought my old one had an RB30 patrol with 600,000kms with just a head rebuild, same bottom end. My cousin had 540,000 on his TB42 before it did a head gasket.

    390000 on mine and it's quiet and smooth. After fixing a couple of vacuum leaks and replacing minor components it starts within half a revolution. It's literally turn the key and bang, the engine has already started. I reckon I could kick the motor and it would start.
