Hi turboglide does a t25 turbo with a m24 housing i am looking at buying a t25 turbo with m24 housing second hand in great condition its from a nissan s15 just wondering if this turbo with be the same and if not how to find one the same as the turboglide turbo, also im looking for a good top...

No worries good thing i plan to rebuild the gearbox then hey, hehe

So i have a 1986 bj70 landcruiser with a 3b diesel engine and a h55f 5 speed, just wondering what exactly i need to do to mate a 1990 1hz engine to it as i have just bought one?

Sorry I meant to say I am yet to find one but I'm not sure on the most compatible model of Landcruiser with the 1hz setup in it that would fit into my car with the least mods if possible as in do my 1986 bj70 diffs suit a certain model better than others is there some way to keep my gearbox in...

I've decided to go down the path of the 1hz conversion but I am buying a dead troopy and am going to try transfer everything over any recommendations as to the most compatible Landcruiser series with the 1hz setup to the bj70 12v?

Here are some pics of my bj looking a bit sad atm she is all undressed.

Sorry for the possible newbie lingo but this is the first motor change for my bj70 so i want to qork out the best way.

So with the 1hz conversion if i get a 12v engine setup can i reuse anything in the engine bay of the 3b?

Yeah i have been on the lookout for a 14bt or 15bt even a 13bt but they are so few and far between and usually quite expensive.

Hi i have a 1986 bj70 landcruiser with a 3b diesel engine 12v, after some research i have come to the decision that i want to put a 1hz into this car so i am looking for some instructions as to the easiest setup that will fit in there what will i need to change and what can i possibly get away...

And also what parts aside from the engine i should swap over also ie gearbox, diffs etc?

Nice choice in fact i am trying to research how to swap a 3b motor out of my 1986 bj70 swb landy with a 1hz, not meaning to highjack but if you dont mind have you any recomendations based on your experience as to the best doner car to get it from to suit my 12 volt 3b diesel system?

Yeah i was looking at the 1hz but from the forums it looks like i need to get the full setup from a troopy but trying to work out cost and amount of work needed on both ways and see which one is going to be a better option at this point.

Thanks appretiate the info mate.
