Nissan Patrol Gu Ti 4.2ltr diesel



I'm New To The Land of 4x4 , I'm Looking For a Touring Truck To Haul Me & a Van Around This Great Land Of Ours ,
My Question To All Out There Is :
Where Do I Find a : Nissan Patrol Gu Ti 4.2ltr diesel Wagon.
Or Is There Such a Thing ??

[nissannewby]

There is such a thing. A Ti might be a little harder to come by so maybe an ST or DX variant. These are basically what sort of options they will have.

Unless your referring the later model 4.2 which came from factory as a intercooled turbo and are generally described on the net as a TD42Ti

I'm Just not Wanting The 3.0ltr Job , I Have Seen A 2008 Gu Ti & Loved It , Drove a Gq 4.2ltr Turbo & Loved It ,
So Wanting The Best Of Both Worlds , Looking For The Top Of The Range Gu Wagon , With The Power Of The 4.2ltr Turbo ,
Thank You , For Any Direction On This Endeavor .

The last of the 4.2's only went to 2006 anything after that will be crd 3.0.

From 99 on they made the 4.2 available with a turbo, then in late 03 they added an intercooler and unfortunately they stopped production of the might td42 at the end of 06.

[nissannewby]

The easiest to find will be an ST with the TD42 turbo in. I'm not 100% sure the 4.2 came available in a TI, if they did they are very rare.

Also 4.2 GU wagons are pricey and generally get snapped up pretty quick.

Well When Life Get's To This Point , Price Takes a Back Seat ,,,
Would Any One Know If An Engine Change Over Is Possible To Create My Desired Vehicle ??

[nissannewby]

Yes it's possible but unless your very handy with the tools it will be cheaper and pose far less hassles to buy a factory 4.2.

[fossell01]

Thanks , I'm No Good With Tools At All , So The Let Me See If I've Got This Right :
A Gu Ti 4.2ltr Turbo Does Exist ???
Or I'm Looking For a St 4.2ltr turbo & Trying To Upgrade All The Extra's ?

[gaddy]

What's the extras your after ?

[Bigcol]

pretty much yes Fossell

if your lucky, you can find the ST-L 4.2, has the leather interior - but expect upwards of the $60K mark in good condition (and rare as when on the Market)
the ST-S had the velour interior, they are slightly more common (than hens teeth) and usually around the $50K in good condition

both of these spec's were 2005-2006
ALSO the 4.2 Diesel in the GU's NEVER came with an Auto, apart from the early GQ's or the Imported GQ's the diesel 4.2 were ALL manual

you can pick up earlier ones, with the high Kms to go with them - lowest Ive seen was $15K most expensive was $40K
just depends on how old / how many Kms / what extras etc

pick of the bunch is the 2006 GU ST-L TD42Ti
however the most common is either the Utes or the DX (base Model)

cheers

All The Comforts Of Home ,, The 2008 Gu Ti , I Sat In Was Just Wonderful , Had :Sat Nav , Woodgrain Trim , Cruise Control , Radio Control On Steering Wheel ,
Just Felt So Good , You Know What I Mean :-)))

[gaddy]

As said earlier a STL has most of what you want , but break out the check book

[Bigcol]

you could try this, and add what you like along the way - heaps cheaper in the long run

You will find this will not be legal due to emission standards, emissions were the same reason the 4.2 is no longer produced.

The later CRD 3.0 patrols aren't that bad and do not have the issues the earlier 3.0 patrols did. You could get a late model Ti probably cheaper than you will find a 4.2 turbo wagon.

[Alitis007]

I have seen a 1999 GU Ti 4.2 auto for sale but it was in NZ. Not sure how you will go with importing it but they are out there, as newby said Nissan stopped producing the 4.2 because they couldn't comply with emissions so doing a transplant with a '06 engine to a '08 car will be extremely difficult.

[Chris79]

Unfortunately gu TI did not come in 4.2 diesel. The closest thing to it will be the last of the ST-L but misses out on some of the goodies.
