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

Yeah, that's pretty common for the 4.2 petrol or diesel.They're Bullet proof
Mine's a 08 CRD with 50k on the clock and no rebuild...yet:wink:
mates farther has a 93 coil cab with 760 on the clock. had a reco put in it 30,000 ago. here's the kicker though, its on gas and has been for a LONG time.
I thought i would bump this thread along!
I have 225,000ks om my 2002 GU 4.2 Turbo diesel!

My TB42s has been on gas from the factory until i got it. It had the head done a few years ago before i got it (at around 350,000 at a guess). Its been treated poorly its whole life and i havent changed that lol, It now has 400,500 on it. They're damn tough:)
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.
305k on my gq and i think the body will die before the engine does, its an ex fisheries ute so it seen way too much salt water and with my fishing and surfing trips its sees the ocean quite alot
Knocking on half a million and puts along like an oilly kitten..
Starts on a half stuffed battery.. Love it when everyone gives you the 'ha, your flucked' look.. Then brum Its off.. Even reverse started down a piss ant slope and it kicked..
Love em..
93 GQ auto 218 000
