    Engine changeover, where near Croydon Vic?

    Hey all,

    My ZD30 is still going strong at 300,000! However, I am thinking the last legs will be sometime soon.

    Does anyone know a good place to have the engine changed over? I am thinking I will buy a new crate engine from Nissan, or wherever, and just have it changed out. I am going to stay with the same engine, just bolt on all my gear I have atm, not going to waste all my money on a conversion then have the rigmarole with insurance and different parts throughout!

    Cheers
    2004 GU ST, ZD30 DDTi.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
