Is this the ute version rather than the wagon?

Yes — it's routed for the Patrol TD42 GU ute, listed for GQ coil-suspension ute and wagon setups, so the path and clearances suit a tray and the coil conversion. Confirm your exact build with the workshop.

Does it work with a GQ coil conversion?

It's listed for GQ coil-suspension ute and wagon builds. Because conversions vary, send us your setup so we can confirm the rear routing and clearances before ordering.

The MPI Automotive MKNI0120 is the Ute build of the 3in Nissan Patrol TD42 GU system, picking up off the base of the cast dump with a centre hotdog and listed for GQ coil-suspension ute and wagon conversions. The ute routing is the distinguishing detail — it's shaped for a tray and the GQ coil setup, not a standard wagon floor.

Why the Ute / GQ coil-suspension version?

A Patrol ute carries its exhaust around a tray and chassis rather than a wagon body, and a GQ coil-suspension conversion changes what sits under the rear. This build is routed for that combination, so the pipe path and clearances suit the ute and the coil setup. Choosing the body-correct version means the system tucks where the tray and suspension leave room, rather than fouling on hardware it wasn't shaped around.

What does off the base of the cast dump cover?

The cast dump is the turbo dump casting at the front of the TD42 exhaust. This system starts off the base of that casting and runs 3in rearward, replacing the exhaust from there back while leaving the dump in place. It's the full rear run for the diesel Patrol, sized to a steady 3in bore from the dump to the tail.

How does the centre hotdog shape the note?

A hotdog is a straight-through resonator — perforated core, packing, no baffles — so it settles the note while letting the gas flow. As the centre of this system it takes the edge off the TD42's diesel drone without choking the 3in run, sitting more open than a chambered centre muffler.
