The v8 nissan super cars run the same motor with a few mods and a lot more hp. The alloy block holds up well and the vk56vd is considered an excellent engine.Originally Posted by MB TD42
Might be a nice rig but cant see myself spending 100k on a rig that will only last 5 years...I mean how much can you get out of an alloy petrol 4wd motor these days with all those electronics...the electrics are only good for 5 before you start chasing your tail with faults. i recon we're gonna see a fair few burn to the ground in a few years:P
This platform had been around a while now, especially in the middle East and they are considered extremely reliable, hence why they out sell the LC200 3 to 1 on average.
The biggest concern in the long run would be the direct injection and potential gunk build up on the intake valves. Your best bet to avoid this is to run 98 and quality oil.
In my opinion the 62 is a rock solid platform.
