Hey mate I've ended up picking up a 1hz with a DTS turbo kit and a h150 gearbox all out of a 80seies and I have a pile of new parts to bolt on I'll probably put the engine on the stand today and start working on it I'm going to do the big end bearings and all oil seals as well, I'm getting...
Thanx ozcruiser,
Has anyone done this conversion before mainly concerned about gearbox clearances, shifter locations and crossmember mods or new holes in the chassis any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,
I'm transplanting a 1hz with h150 gearbox out of a 1996 hzj80r into a bj73 and I'm wondering what is the best solution with wiring up the engine and gearbox. Would it be best to grab a engine and gearbox loom from a hzj79 and the instrument cluster from the hzj79 as well. I have the gearbox...
I'm pretty sure you'll have to grind some of the support ribs in your bell housing back and I think i seen that on here somewhere. Have a search around the threads.
Yeah I have pretty much heard the same thing from anyone that's done the conversion I couldn't find anything on stronger engine mounts but I was thinking I was going to use race engine straps and I did find someone online that done odd sizes as custom orders or they had a heap of standard sizes...
Hi, I am looking to replace the radiator on my BJ73 with 3b motor and can't seem to get right part number or find the right radiator the one I always find has the inlet and outlet on the wrong side they both need to be on the left and no radiator cap either.
The turbo on the 14bt is a ct26 if your current turbo is ct26 you should be able to use your dump pipe but if it is not there is a guy on eBay au that sells a 90 degree dump for the 80series (80's use a ct26) you should be able to use the down pipe from your existing dump and fabricate one out...
Hi rbtsas, yeah mate I haven't had much time lately, I'm putting off the build until i get my new house I'm in the Pilbara so I don't really want to be doing the conversion out in the sun and by the time I get around to it it will be winter so happy days, I'm still excited as about the build...
Yeah to easy mate there is a few more things you need to take into account with your conversion cause your going from a red motor to a blue but nothing wee can't work out, I'm hanging to order my 14bt but I'm in between jobs ATM as soon as I land something ill be straight on the phone and...
Hi, I've been doing heaps of research on the 14bt conversion I'm going to compile everything I have learned and figured out I will put pen to paper tomorrow and post it on here. But to get it started I need to know what year your bj is and what 3b you have because there is a blue motr winch is...

Hi, I am about to do engine conversion on 1990 bj73 from 3b to import 13bt and I am chasing a dump pipe for the turbo so I can have a start for the exhaust build I'm located in Australia and willing to pay freight from anywhere in Aus.
Cheers
