12ht

I Wanted to gauge interest in a Turbo upgrade kit for the 12H-t that is in the HJ61. Let me know if this is a product you would like to see developed. We were going to work on it for our HJ61, and if there is enough interest build a kit. Thanks!

seems my coolant heater isn't very effective at covecting/percolating the water through the block, only a small portion at the back of the 12ht is getting heated. On the little 2lt engine its working fine, but its all the way down at the frame rail, on the 12ht it sits level with the oil cooler...

Started with a need to carry stuff arround and a dream for a diesel roar.. evolved in a plan.. its actioned now. 1984 HJ47 cab chassis 2H and 4speed box. The ultimate Aussie workhorse of the 80'. It has travelled 250K had two owners before me. The original owner had kept her in very good shape...

Hi guys i have had an issue starting my 89 12ht for a while and have always had an issue with backing out of a driveway hitting the brakes and it stalls also up the bush if up a steep hill and stop it stalls but point it down hill no problem at all the issue i have i finally got the pump and...

Hey Guys, can anyone here share their experience of sound deadening the engine noise in your 60/62. I have a 12HT in mine, and though the noise is bearable, I have driven another 60 with a 12HT and that is much more silent. So just asking for some advice and pictures as well would help...

For some reason I've always created a new "build thread" everytime that I do a significant change to my rig, and now I've decided that it's time to make it into one so that I can stay organized and also to keep tabs on new mods, trips, pictures, etc. I reckon while I'm at it i'll give a little...

G'day guys and girls, I've recently aquired a JDM import HJ61, and given that 12v is the norm for cruisers here, I'm not too familiar with the whole 24v thing, so I'd really appreciate some help, because this has me a bit boxed; 1) Wiring is interesting to say the least; some people shouldn't...

so have had the 12HT in the 45 for about 7 months now and clocked about 3000kms. loving it. but i do have some questions that maybe more experienced 12HT owners might be able to answer. how high do you rev your 12ht? so i barely rev over 2500rpm. and im sitting at 80kph at 2000rpm in 4th (4...

Check this out, this fully rebuilt 12HT motor with virtually new pump and hi-flow turbo sounds amazing! I will have to start saving the pennies to get my pump rebuilt if it will make my engine sound anything like this, not sure I would get away with the exhaust though :)

Hi guys, So I've been having some thoughts about the extent of potential engine rebuild given the current state of my project. Have a look here My HJ61 Rejuvenation I got into some discussion on the Oz 60 Series Owners FB page and the opinions included pull the pistons and check, do...

This install of the 12Ht into a 40 series chassis and the build of the body is really starting to pick up the pace. These guys really know their stuff when it comes to custom work, and seems like it is about to get interesting on the body chop. Looks like they are posting a full series of vids...

So having been a classic lurker for about a year I've bitten the bullet, joined and have dived straight into a rebuild thread... Having driven 40s for years on the farm where I work, I finally decided to pull the trigger and buy one for myself. I initially went out looking for a tidyish ute...

new to site . just dropped recon 12 ht into 75 series ute . everything seems to be going as expected but wanted to hear others opinions on the initial start up. i believe i should pre oil the motor before its runs. is it possible to turn crank by hand to push oil through the galleries or will i...

I am selling a complete 12ht engine including h55f gearbox. Engine is very clean and has no oil leakes. Engine is complete. (so it will come with alternator and starter, flywheel and clutch everthing you need to build it in your car) The engine is complete overhauled 75K km's ago, and runs like...

Hi all - I'm still relatively new to the cruiser world, but my JDM HJ61 has recently started overheating - well really, running on the warm side, which is a new occurrence -- and one that I'd like to stop. I've done my damndest to figure out what's going on (using the search function on MUD) but...

Gday all, I hope this is in the best section.. I have added a Redarc coolant temp gauge to my hj61 - the probe is in the top radiator hose about 100mm from the thermostat. From memory the thermostat (genuine Toyota) is stamped 88 degrees celsius. In normal driving on say a 20 degree Celsius day...

I have been looking around my 12ht to fit my aftermarket gauges and it's not looking like a simple install with out losing my stock water temp gauge unless I drill and tap into the water pump housing ?. I'm thinking of running the manual oil pressure from a piggy back system on the stock...

I am just putting my feelers out to see what the interest in this beauty is. I bought it about a year ago freshly imported from Japan and my plan was to restore it fully but won't be able to anymore due to a family emergency. 1988 Toyota HJ61 12H-T Toyota inline 6 cylinder Turbo Diesel engine...
