diesel in a '92?
#21
Its a 1kzte out of a 95 Toyota Surf. Its an auto which I don't like but it works well. And I just have whatever boost it came with. I'm not modding the motor at all as I don't want the thing to die on me. But I don't really need to. It makes 230lbft at 1800rpm out the box. Don't really need more cause it pulls so good right now. The only thing I plan to do to the motor is intercool it. It will give me a bit more power but better mileage. I'm going all out for mileage. Right now I'm getting better mileage than a 2001 Malibu. And it has tons of power. No problem pulling up hills now. I can accelerate up them.

Got the motor and tranny any everything for putting it in the truck from Jarco for 4200 shipped and bought the truck for 1200 and just getting the little things to do the swap it all came out to about 6500 so far. I still don't ahve the 4wd hooked up but I just need to get my hands on a computer and it will work. Also I need to buy a few fenders and some paint to make it nice and when its all done I'll have around $7000 into it. Remember that includes buying the truck. But being as its so much better on fuel and the truck had a blown 3vze in it there really is no downside other than I'm not driving my old 82 anymore.
Sure do miss driving that beast.
