Nissan built diesel Pathfinders (under the Patrol model name) for other markets.
I looked into getting parts from a couple of wrecked Patrols out of Australia, but the cost was insane at the time.
Add in the issues with certifying a Diesel conversion here in NJ at the time and it was more trouble than it was worth.
Now with the State having to accept Diesel, LNG, CNG, Ethanol and even Electric conversions, it might be a viable swap.
