    Builds Euro 1HD-FT Turbo Diesel/H151F 5 Speed Manual LHD 96' USA Swap

    Hi Steve, Please tell me a little more about the overdrive gear set. I emailed Georg, but no reply. What was the price and do you know how hard the install was, whether the t-case has to come out (easy on the 80), whether i works with a true HF1A, and whether it requires any grinding? Thank you, jan

    24valve 1hd rebuild

    Ah, that makes it much easier. Yes, rings are the same as 1HDFT.

    24valve 1hd rebuild

    The Yanmar 6LP series is actually the 1HDFT, not the 1HDT. That is important, as things like intake manifold, linkage, exhaust manifold...are very different (I did what you did and have that engine in my 80). So are the injector lines and pump settings-these are important, as the Yanmar...

    Best Country to find and Import FJ40 from?

    Be careful. Both countries have high mountains with lots of snow, use tons of salt and vehicle maintenance is not high on people's agenda. Rust buckets are everywhere.

    1HDT Clutch Vs Power

    I used the one from Xxiindustries (Home Page). They claim it is equilibrated for the G-Turboes. It looked like a very well built product and has held up great so far.

    1HDT Clutch Vs Power

    A brand new stock clutch will slip with a G-turbo and tuned pump at 16 psi.

    Run away 1hz

    Check your oil level and viscosity. If it is high and appears thin, your IP is leaking diesel from the front seal into the oil, thinning it out and raising the level so it gets pushed by the rings into the combustion chamber.

    Another JDM HDJ-81

    Changing journals and resizing bearings makes no sense and is not supported by the FSM either. By that logic you would have to change the rod every time you change the bolts. The stretch in the bolts can be measured and if out of specs (indicated in the FSM), they have to be replaced.

    Does this roof rack make my 80 look fat?

    I understand, it is easy to take tons of stuff, especially with kids...

    Does this roof rack make my 80 look fat?

    Do you really want criticism, or just confirmation that it looks great and very 'expeditiony'? You are taking way too much stuff. How much food can you eat in 4 days? If you want to bring your whole house, take a trailer. You are having too much weight on the roof. Off camber will be a problem...

    Can someone explain what the lines running to my alternator are?

    As gerg said, there is a vac pump attached to your alt, as the diesel engine does not generate vacuum. The pump is lubricated by engine oil and the vac is required for your brake and clutch boosters.

    Diesel 5 speed

    Sorry, I did not want to come across that way.:beer: I swapped a (new) 1HDFT into a 96 80 series in the US. The truck was clean with lockers and new leather on the seats. The engine was actually cheap for what it was. The transmission was rebuilt by us, so was the transfer. Obviously such a...

    Australian 1HDTs come in 12V too.

    Diesel 5 speed

    Your original statement was not that they 'pop up on craigslist from time to time' (which is more than vague), but that you can import a LHD turbo diesel 80 series easily for 13.5k. As I said, make a business out of it and make some real money, if that is so easy.
