ARH Nissan Patrol Headers Ready for Middle East Horsepower

After years of visiting the Middle East to provide support for their American Racing Headers products, ARH has delivered one product which nobody else has, but everyone will want!  ARH presents the new Nissan Patrol 5.6L V8 and straight 6 cylinder 4.8L headers.  The Nissan Patrol is popular in the Middle East, Asia, New Zealand, and other non USA regions as a beefy 4×4 SUV.  The straight 6 cylinder is bullet proof with guys making 2000 horsepower on these cars.  The V8 is similar to the USA Infiniti QX56, the 5.6L V8 engine makes a stout 400HP and 560NM of torque.  The Gen 6 started in 2010 and goes to the current 2015 model.  The straight 6 cylinder Gen 5 has a 4.8L which made its first appearance in 2002.  The new ARH header has a unique 6 into 1 collector to mimic the firing order of the engine.  Both the 5.6L and 4.8L headers will fit LHD and RHD vehicles.

To manufacture these headers in the USA, ARH had one of their clients in the Middle East ship them their 4.8L SUV.  They did all the R&D, prototyping, and dyno testing on this product. The truck was bone stock that was tested. What was unfortunate was that it would’ve made more power if the rev limiter was higher than the stock setting of 5200 rpm. You can see the power was still climbing!  American Racing Headers offers you to purchase this as a header and connecting pipe only for owners wanting to use their stock catback on the 4.8L or for those with the 5.6L you can purchase a complete system.  The FULL exhaust will retail for around $2895 US.

Interested in these headers, drop an email to sales@vividracing.com or give us a call at 480.966.3040.  Shop all American Racing Headers Here.

Is this the Solution to Backseat Shenanigans?

Having kids and a nice car is usually a disaster in the making. We’ve added some larger project cars in the past to cater to those who want a bad ass daily, but also need to play super-parent every now-and-again. As your kids get bigger, so do the fights in the backseat. We came across this man’s solution to the problem of backseat shenanigans, on Yahoo Auto. We want to know what you think? Is this the best or worst idea?

The Breakdown

This car is a normal looking,  2008 Nissan Patrol. From the outside, it’s business as usual. Then when you open the front door, there’s something missing and without the caption, you’re not quite sure what it is. Then you realize. There is a flat screen in place of the steering wheel. From there, the camera guy reveals that the Kings of Custom, in Dubai, have moved all the front seat controls to the backseat. This, in his words, allows the parent/ driver to keep the shenanigans to a minimum. However, my first thought was; yes the shenanigans are down, but you also can’t see the front of your car. If this thing was lowered, you’d be hitting curbs, corners and God knows what else, due to the lack of vision. We can appreciate the mods and the idea of fixing a ever prevailing problem, but I think there are still some bugs to work out with this mommy-mobile.

We’ll let you be the judge! Is this the best or worst idea? Do you think the idea could work? Do you have a better solution? We want to know! Leave your thoughts in the comment section below or on Facebook or Twitter.
