THE ULTIMATE TOURING RIG: M57N2 / ZF6 Converted 105 Series Landcruiser – Fully Engineered

Stop looking at sluggish diesels and underpowered petrols. This is the ultimate weapon of a 105 Series Landcruiser you’ve been waiting for. Combining the legendary, bulletproof, twin-solid-axle chassis of the 105 with the absolute peak of modern diesel performance—the BMW M57N2 engine and the lightning-sharp ZF 6-speed automatic transmission.

Built with zero compromises, completely sorted, and fully engineered, this rig is 100% turnkey and ready to tackle the lap of Australia tomorrow.

💰 Price: $55,000 (Includes Registration & RWC)

Knocked out a few solid little jobs this week 👍

First up, built a temporary shifter mount for a customer’s M57-converted Troopy.

We moved it back and raised it up to make it way more usable in manual mode until his custom centre console is ready.

Also had a customer who wanted his bonnet-entry snorkel cut capped off on his tidy barra converted GQ so we welded it up. Came out super clean 👌

Always good knocking out these custom fixes!

🔧 Fixed another dodgy turbo drain on this TD42 GU!

This sump came in with a leaky bodge job on the turbo drain that was causing all sorts of grief. We pulled the old pan, replaced it with a fresh sump, then properly welded in a clean AN fitting so we can run some quality new lines.

No more half-arsed fixes
done to done right 😌💪

Proper fabrication > quick hacks every time.

🚨 The Government is literally telling us: “Make smarter fuel choices and get your 4x4s more efficient.”

Well… challenge accepted 🔥

At Resurrection 4x4 we don’t just tick the box we smash it.

Ditch the thirsty old engine and drop in a bulletproof BMW M57 or N57 diesel conversion and watch this happen:

✅ Easy 300hp+ of proper usable power

✅ 10–11 litres per 100km on the highway (yes, you read that right)

✅ Still built like a tank and ready for the toughest tracks

Power and economy. No more choosing between the two.

Your 4x4 can finally be fast, reliable, and actually cheap to run — exactly what the government (and your wallet) wants.

-Dual Battery Compatible: Engineered with clearance in mind, this bracket is fully compatible with most dual battery tray setups, allowing you to maintain your auxiliary power system without interference.

-Seamless Integration: Designed to bolt into existing engine bay architecture, eliminating the need for "custom" hacks or untidy hose routing.

The Ultimate M57-Powered GU Patrol

​This GU Patrol came to us to have its BMW M57 conversion completed, and we took the opportunity to turn it into a high-performance touring weapon. From a full engine refresh to bespoke interior fabrication, no stone was left unturned.

​🔧 Performance & Reliability
​We went through the engine to ensure it was bulletproof before pushing the power:
​Internal Upgrades: Full engine reseal, new timing chain, and upgraded valve springs.
​The Powerhouse: Turbo Systems M57D30TOP upgrade turbocharger set paired with a PDI Front Mount Intercooler kit.
​Air & Filtration: A custom 4" Stainless Snorkel for maximum induction and a BossVent Catch Can to keep the intake system pristine.
​Fueling & Tuning: Brand new injectors and a Custom Dyno Tune to dial in that twin-turbo torque.

​💻 Interior & Custom Fabrication
​We focused on a "factory-plus" aesthetic to make the BMW gear feel at home in the Nissan:
​Custom Console: Bespoke matching trim fabricated for both the BMW shifter and the range selector for a seamless, professional finish.
​The Command Center: A Haltech UC10 instrument cluster, fully configured to monitor all critical engine vitals in real-time.
​Electrical: Full Dual Battery System and a Redarc Tow-Pro for effortless towing.

​🛠️ Barwork, Recovery & Range
​Built for the most remote tracks in the country:
​Massive Range: Brown Davis long-range tanks (148L Main & 80L Sub) giving this M57 over 228L of fuel capacity.
​Protection: The full Raslarr suite—Dallas bar, sliders, and scrub bars.
​Recovery: A Carbon Winch featuring the convenience of in-cab controls.

​This GU is the perfect blend of German power and Japanese reliability. Refined, powerful, and ready for any adventure! 💨

50% MORE POWER ON ONLY 3PSI?! 📈💥

​We took the Resurrection 4x4 budget Jimny over to see Jarrod at , and the results for the little 1.3L were... surprising, to say the least!

​Even though we’re running a "really budget" turbo build, the gains are already insane. We went from a baseline of near 40kW to a solid 60kW. That is a massive 50% increase in power and we’ve barely even started! 🚀

​The Catch?

The Chinese wastegate (supposedly a 7psi spring) was only giving us 2psi. We added a boost tee to hit 3psi, but that’s where we found the limit of the stock fuel pump. She started running lean, so we had to call it for the day.

​What’s next for Round 3:
​⛽ New fuel pump to fix those lean ratios.

​🏎️ Heading back to JT Mechanical to actually hit that 7psi goal.

​🪚 Guard chops are happening soon to fit the flares and a set of 31” muddies! Video will be out soon

​If it’s doing 50% more power on 3psi, imagine what it’ll do on 7... Stay tuned!

At Resurrection 4x4, a conversion isn't just about making it fit it’s about making it bulletproof. 🛠️
​We don’t cut corners on our ZF6 prep. Before any box goes in, it gets the full treatment to ensure it handles whatever the tracks throw at it:
​Leak-Proof Prep: Replacement the worn and leaking torque converter seals and Fusion Fabs AN fitting adapter kits for the cooler lines.
​Dust & Water Protection: We tap the factory breather port for a sealed push-lock hose fitting essential for those deep crossings.
​Precision Internals: When swapping input gears (like our Patrol builds), we bin the standard stuff for high-quality Japanese input bearings and fresh seals.
​It’s the small details that ensure a long-lasting, high-quality build. Ready to resurrect your rig? 🦾
