Manifold GU ZD30 Kit with NEW Manifold N/G Nuts Inconel Studs (Loose) for Nissan Patrol GU

This is a replacement exhaust manifold kit designed for the Nissan Patrol GU platform equipped with the ZD30 engine. The exhaust manifold bolts to the cylinder head, collecting exhaust gases and directing them to the turbocharger. Original ZD30 manifolds are a known failure point, prone to warping and cracking from repeated, extreme heat cycles. This warping can cause frustrating exhaust leaks and lead to broken or snapped manifold studs. This kit was developed as a durable, long-lasting solution to these common problems, providing a reliable fix to get your Patrol back on the road.

Important Note: This kit includes the manifold, gaskets, nuts and inconel studs. You will also require a new manifold gasket and a turbo-to-manifold gasket to complete the installation.

Product Features

• Durable Casting: Features a quality cast genuine manifold.
• High-Strength Inconel Studs: Includes a full set of premium Inconel studs. This material offers superior resistance to heat, stretching, and fatigue compared to standard steel studs, preventing them from snapping under load and causing leaks.
• Comprehensive Kit: Supplied as a complete kit with the new exhaust manifold, Genuine gaskets, high-tensile nuts, and Inconel studs, providing the core components to do the job right.
• Fault Symptoms: A faulty or leaking manifold typically causes a ticking or hissing exhaust noise (especially on a cold start), reduced engine performance, poor fuel economy, or the smell of exhaust fumes in the cabin.
• Installation Advice: Replacement is a difficult workshop job. Access is limited, and the original studs and nuts are often seized or broken, requiring specialised tools for removal.

Patrolapart: Quality, Durability, Performance

Don't get caught out with inferior manifold kits. Cheaper alternatives often use poor-quality castings that are just as prone to cracking and warping as the original. Worse, they typically come with low-grade steel studs that will stretch and snap under heat, causing dangerous leaks and forcing you to do the whole time-consuming job again. This kit includes quality components and high-strength Inconel studs to prevent these common failures and ensure a lasting repair.
