Nissan's Murano (spelling?) is now for sale in Aust. I think it is a great move and ever since my trip to Canada 2 months ago have been wondering why we miss out on cars like this and the Infinity series (G35 in particular).

I think they are one of the best looking 4wd's going around. Not sure about it's off road credentials or levels of equipment.

What are your thoughts?

Cheers

I think the murano is going to replace my current 4.4 X5, I'm staggered by the level of built quality and equipements for the money!!!

hey hungry6

are you really willing to give up one of the best sounding v8's on the road? not sure about the 4.4l but the 4.8l sounds awesome.

maybe with a little exhaust work the 3.5 murano would sound good.

Nar, I'm not going to miss the X5 trust me, As for the exhaust note, my Audi RS6 has got the best stock exhaust note in the business, bar non!!

are you having me on hungry6? you don't have a RS6? do you!!! do you really have a X5.

i love the way the flames shoot from the exhaust on my RS6, on the playstation anyway.

We have them at work(i work for nissan) and to breifly explain them, its basically vomit on wheels. with tacky plastic interior.

I work at the same complex as Nissan Sydney Homebush and the Murano was first seen here months ago.

It doesn't even get a 2nd glance given there are so many 4WDs in this complex.

It's not as bad as you make out but as far as this forum is concerned, it's another 4WD.

T.

It is basically a front-wheel-drive wagon — like the Maxima — but gets power delivered to the rear wheels when the front wheels lose traction.

Murano isn't one for the bush, just a front-drive wagon that seats five adults

And the base model is $51,990

Good for what it is i guess..

i dont get nissan... wtf is with the 350z style being copied to every model  :D

Maybe its coz the 350z actually sells?

I'm pretty sure Nissan know much more about marketing their cars than you do.

No I'm not having anyone on, I got a few different set of wheels, and the RS6 in one of my fav. daily driver.

My brother is also on this forum and he drive a red one, mine is a one of custom blue.

If you are that rich and can afford a x5 and rs6 u dont also own a gts-t or gtr do ya????

I'm not trying to brag or what ever, as I've said before, my passion for skylines have date back ages before these forums came up, I think I might be the first person here to own a r32 gtr, one of the original aussie delivered one, but since have own others, I also enjoy my r33 gtst that is powered by a RB26det, more so than the others, as it is the car, that has been taken furthest away from it original intent by the manufacturer.

    • The Neat gears use an alternative profile, no? Something different to what normal OEM stuff is. Is the noise at all traceable to that? Reason I ask is that my CW&P are effectively past their use by bate and Neat is the obvious option.
    • Just picked up my first skyline. R34 4 door with an rb25det and manual swap. I’m in the US. It has a bunch of issues but the problem I’m chasing now is the indicator, hazards, and horn do not work. I took out the indicator relay and fuses and tested separately and they seem to be working fine. When I activate the turn signal stalk or the hazard button nothing happens, no clicking, and no dash lights. Same with the horn. What should I test next? The headlights, taillights, and brake lights work fine so I think the stalk is good.
    • RD25 neo... sorry bad joke ill see myself out
    • Sorry just googled Toyota WiLL Vi and wish that I didn't, day ruined, fark etc.
    • So mines not in yet ... which should tell you something ...   I got a set of neat gears as well, took a year to get those. Then the setup was a real tricky one, with all the changes. It seems the shims for the front diffs are in short supply and had to wait two round of custom ones. This was all done by a professional diff builder , not me/diy.   So here we are about to go into 2025 and I do finally have a built front sump / diff / gears.  Just need the mojo to pull out the engine ...   Oh as an aside on the neat gears, they have some whine, mostly on decel. Taken a bit of setup again to get that down to a street car level.
