1980 Nissan Patrol Reviews, Pricing & Specs

The 2.8L six was dog slow, so I put a 4.4L alloy V8 in from a P76 plus a 5-speed gearbox! After that, performance was great. Great motor for the car, you can get the conversion kit from Marks 4WD adaptors in Melbourne. Squeaky shackles and no travel on the front. Rear susp was OK for leaves. Front axle bent after landing from the jump in the photo. Haven't owned the car for 15 years, so that's about all I can say. Overall, not a bad 4WD for it's time. Apr 23, 2008
