hey guys
names scotty i have a 97 2.8td lwb gq patrol lookin to do engine swap friend has a 350z motor sittin in his shed thinkin about puttin it in has it been done and dose anyone if there is a box out there that would match up??????????????????

your info is muchly apreciated =D

I don't know of anyone who has put a VQ35 in a Patrol, I don't think the high revving nature of the naturally aspirated VQ35 would suit the big heavy Patrol but I could be wrong.

Is your 2.8 dead or are you just looking at the 350Z motor and thinking "sweet, wonder if it'll fit?"

Go with a RB25det if your wanting a petrol engine. If your wanting a diesel go with the TD42.
