Finally realised why Nissan is releasing the New Patrol in only V8 Petrol

It is so they can enter the V8 Supercars.
Can’t think of any other cars in Nissan Aust lineup that run a V8. :first:


Will seem strange having Nissan or any other manufacturer back in the race again..

Maverick owners will be conflicted... Do you go with the Badge or the Build..hmmmm

It will blitz them if they do a leg at Oran Park. :)

Give a new meaning to suburban 4wd.

Yeah I just heard the news about Nissan getting back into the race.
I thought the rules said that a manufacturer had to make a production car in V8 to enter. Production car being 500 or something sold.
A good point about the mav owners! Guess they gotta go for the engine manufacturer.

not happening till 2013 so they'll cuck a v8 into the 370z or r35 skyline and that'll be the racecar or a whole new model aimed at the aussie and yank market

Bring it on, long overdue.

I'd like to see a current model GTR shell with a screaming VK45 quad cam V8 and 2WD.
