Hey guys I'm throwing up the idea of putting a Cummins 5.9 in my 1993 gq swb, has anyone else done a conversion? And what major changes need to be done to the car to withstand the weight/size of the engine?
Also I have not been able to find a conversion kit for a gq online
Hi mate you may want to throw up an intro first, just something the forum asks of us
all, no harm done, have you had a search yet top right corner
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
hi .... just make up a plate to bolt the engine to the gear box its not a big job. Gq box will handle the HP.
May need to up grade your front springs at the most.
You had me at 5.9Cummins!
@nissannewby you need to be in this room mate!
Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!!....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!
Check out my Toy --> MudRunnerTD's GQ From the Ground Up
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.Originally Posted by Rogue Dung Beetle

Hey Mate. I found a video online here- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-n8KE2Gh0L8
However, that was in a GU, not a GQ.
Have you checked out this thread? It talks about the adapter kits- http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...ol-conversions
Cheers
