check out the forum on
www.4wdmonthly.com.au (it's a magazine site, but has a resonably lively forum. But beware, asking how good is a nissan on there is a bit like asking how good a ford is on here (big nissan - toyota rivalry too), but you should eventually get a good straight up answer. That said I've never heard of any major/common problems with GQ auto's, in all my years of magazine reading and forum surfing. If you don't get a decent answer there, try
http://www.outerlimits4x4.com/ This forum is more hadrcore-directed but there are still plenty of diehard nissan fans about.
hope i helped a bit.
p.s. if it's a 3 litre petrol (carby RB30) stay the hell away from it, WAY underpowered (especially in an auto), and probably shagged out.
