Isnt it kind of cool that the 1HZ is STILL available today? Engines, parts etc etc etc.

There must be something special about that bugger that they are still turning them out?!?!?!?!

1HZ, 1HD-T and 1HD-FTE are still available .. !!!!

A lots of people here, buy from Toyota a brand new TLC 100 with 1HD-T ( the same old .. but perfect mecanical engine ) or with the all electronical 1HD-FTE.

Off course have the same option to buy a 105 with 1HZ ( stock ) or you can make a special order to buy 105 with the old 1HD-T, with LSD, or lockers from factory.

Off course all from Arakawa Japan..!

David, is this a fact you can special order a 105 with a 1HDT in Panama?

Yes .. ! why not, if you pay for it .. you can take it.

In fact, you can found brand new 100 series with the old 1HD-T engine, 0 km no problems with that.

Ley me go today on one dealer to get a cuote ... I can scan it and post here.

[beanz2]

That would be appreciated. These are the solid axle 105 series not the IFS 100 series, right?

right .. !

Of course as you know the 105 series don't come with some special toys, as mini internal cooler, or folding rear-view mirror, or GPS.

Hi, hope I don't get you guys repeating yourselves too much but was wondering if the 1HD-T/five speed will bolt straight up to the engines mounts in a 91-92 FJ80. Also, will they bolt to the HF2A t-case or do you need an adapter? Just wondering. I was hoping that this would work. I heard that the mounts are the same for both the diesel and gas but wasn't sure if that applied to the FJ80, or the FZJ80 or both. Thanks for your help and again I hope you aren't repeating too much. I'm not to adept at utilizing the forum search yet. : ). Thanks. Oh, and I imagine it would help to know if the transmission mounts would need to be changed. Thanks again.

Is there a thread, FAQ or other data available for converting a FJ80 (1994) petrol to a 1HZ/1HD. For example:
"If you are going to replace your existing 4.5L petrol engine with a 1HD/Z you will need to replace the following"
1. Entire exhaust
2. Radiator
3. Motor mounts
4. Ecu

Well you get the point. I am trying to get an idea of what I'm geting into, how much it will cost and difficulty level of this project. There's a company in New Hampshire that will drop a 1HD in your FJ80 for $10K USD. $7500 for the motor and $2500 to install it.

What do ya think?

Here is quite easy in FZJ-80 R150 you don't need the ECU or Rad issues ..

[campoj2]

Did you convert your truck to a diesel or did you buy it that way?

mine . ?

Yes, yours..

campoj,
I also have a '94 FZJ80 that I am planning on putting a 1HD-T or 1HD-FT into, and from the research I have done $10K sounds like a deal. What is the name of the company in NH?

There is a lot involved in the swap, which is why that quote seems low. I am wondering if they get the ABS, cruise control, etc. to work with the engine too. All of this requires more than an engine, it requires all of the ECU's to mesh, the transmissions to mesh, and the transfer cases to mesh. Electrically, it can be a bit of a nightmare unless you get a 1/2 cut (the front end) of a used 80, which has all of the ECUs and wiring harnesses still in it.

I have come up with my own questions during my research, which are found in the following post:

http://forum.ih8mud.com/diesel-tech-24-volts-systems/138986-hdj81-fzj80-diesel-swap.html

The questions suggest what you will need to know and have to make the swap cleanly. Hope this helps.

That engine alone will cost you ten grand PLUS. IF IF IF IF you can find one. I'd call Profits in Colorado and talk to them about a Cummins install. It's cheaper.

Hi guys,

I swapped out my carburated 1FZ on my 1994 80 series with a 1HZ out os a 70 series TLC. It was more trouble than i thought.
First of all the engine mounts off the 1hz didn't fit cause they were from a 70 series chassis. If i had a 1hz or a 1hdt from an 80 series it should bolt right in. but i didn't so i had to modify the driver side mount ,Shorter< so it would line up with the fan cover and stuff like that.
Second of all the bell housing changes between 1hz and the 1fz motors. Luckily i had a 5 speed that fit the 1hz, so i simply swapped bellhousings.

I had to use an different clutch disk cause of the size difference. Izuzu i think, not sure cause i bought it using a sample.
But i eventually got a 1hdt flywheel and clutch .

I had to lengthen the wires to the alternator cause its on the other side of the engine now. Also the leads for the water temp and oil pressure units.

The tach was something else. Since the tlc the engine came from didn't have a tack, thus the inyection pump didn't have the sender. so i had no tack signal.
With no tach signal, th A/C doesn't work. Funny those toyota engineers. real funny

So i took the magnetic pickup out of the 1fz distribuitor and mounted it over the a/c idler pulley. Epoxied a strong magnet to the pulley, and voila, tach signal. By the way you have to retain the gassers ignition module and coil for this to work. or at least thats how i did it.
I even have a sparkplug connected to the coil and isolated using rubber tape. just so stuff don't burn out .

The A/C compresor pulley has a different offset between the gas and diesel engines. Since i didn't have the diesel a/c compresor pulley, i had to modifythe compresor mount. Which also means that i needed new hoses and all that other stuff. Did i mention that the a/c won't work without tach signal???

The exhaust ,all you need is connect the down pipe to the first exhaust junction under the passenger side door. piece of cake.

I took about 5 days to finish the swap. The first 2 days were 20 hour work days, and about $800 in nickel and dime s**t like hoses , Freon, clutches, exhaust ect... not including the cost of the engine.

I must admit it turned out really well. though the 1hz engine is quite underpowered compared to the 1fz engine. I would prefer a 1hdt swap to get equivalent performance out of the swap.
Which is why I installed a 1hdt turbo on the 1hz engine.

I also used the propane kit i had when i ran the 1fz motor and fumigate the engine constantly with very small amounts of propane.
It smells kind a funky at idle, but really wakes up the engine.

I would sum up the swap in 5 words, Royal Pain In The A**
But would i doit again? Yes for sure.

hope this helps
Cheers

Hey dude the best part of this is the fun factor .. not really the bolt on part
