Good day all! A lot of moons have passed since the last time i posted. During those moons i have exchanged through a 2011 GCC Spec hzj76 , 1995 JDM KZJ78 MT and now daily driving a General Spec HZJ76. I Feel really lucky that i have a chance to experience all those different markets in one...

Same engine in the General Market V6 200 series, Previous Gen Tacoma, FJ Cruiser and the 215/285 4Runner. Just a tad bit detuned in the 70 series for the Gulf market. Japanese 2014-2015 70s only had this engine as it was the only engine in 70 lineup which could pass Japanese emission requirements.

Yes basically it is a catalytic converter for diesels

No you don't need or want that. It is not for filtering the diesel. it filters the diesel emissions after it has been burned off in the engine. I would prefer one without it. My 2012 GCC HZJ76 did not have an EGR whereas Australia and Japana had them since 1999 so i wouldnt be surprised if GCC...

Looks like they are using the old hood. Proabably no DPF in GCC models which is a good thing

I imagine the scenario where People/ Large animals are charging at your campsite while you sleep. Then not having to go outside to get behind the wheel is a great plus!

Troopy is better suited for building living quarters. Can spread the weight better . I do not like over landing vehicles that have the cab and living quarters separately. Going from sleeping position to the drivers seat without exiting the vehicle is quite a nice thing. I think he is trying to...

Any news mates? Looking forward to hear more on this

I think it will be even faster than the 1FZ.
