Greetins, I would like your advice on the following please:
I have an Fj40 1978 with a NISSAN LD28 straight 6, 2.8L diesel engine, This engine was installed in New Zealand, I guess that type of engine is very common over there and Europe..... Not much here in the states (1981 to 1983 Nissan Maxima had them here in the United States). Finding parts are a pain but I am stuck with it, and although it has not given me much problems; it feels like it has to many RPM going at 55-60mph.
My question is, should install a turbo? (research told me a turbo from a Mercedes 300 diesel will work fine).
Or should I install a 5 speed tranny on?
I am not looking for a speed bullet just a little better than 55 to 60 mph with out hearing the engine at to much rpm.
Thanks in advance.
