Here’s the link to the drive video.

Thanks buddy, you did great today ! No worries about that little blue Pajero of mine, most of it can be fixed with a hammer, duct tape, and some tie wraps 😂

Had a fun morning drive after long....

Hey Yas ! Welcome back ! And one serious topic to start off with 😆. I have seen some stuff on Instagram and had a look at some foreign forums a year back for the same reason. From what I’ve seen there is no straight simple swap to one of these engines, and if you find the capable guy to do so, you’re probably looking at a 40k AED job or even much higher. On top of that RTA will not pass this so you won’t be able to register the car anymore. My two cents: you’re currently driving a 3.8 which is a very capable off-roader. What would be the main reason for the upgrade ? Don’t get me wrong i also think it’s super cool to have a beast like that, but you should consider that many people do these engine swaps without upgrading cooling systems, brakes, safety devices, which makes the car a death ride and not suitable for long off-road drives, rather for going on Faya and showing off. The risk of tipping over and serious incidents is much higher too. I guess you don’t want to end up on a YouTube channel called “UAE desert Fails” or something. if anyone could pull it off, it would be @Barry

Hello gents! I might join as well, still dont know if will go for noon drive or will attend this am drive. I got a JK sport, as a desert car, so kept Y62 for roads only. Enjoying the smooth ride now, completely different experience)

Yes. After 2 am just another 2 hours and it becomes 4 am

when doing swaps things can go pretty crazy have seen Suzuki jimmy and vitara carrying Ls engines had seen buggy with corolla engines the world is open to ideas you just have to have a thick pocket... had one guy here in sanaya put a supra 7m in a jeep the work had been going for quite some time then they finished it and the car was started it sounded like magic to ears but as soon as the driver took it for a spin it just went like 100 meters from the shop and then bram beem boom and the car stopped turns out the rear diff gave away...

All the very best for your new adventure. Hope everything goes as per your plan.
