i can't see any turbo 1HZ getting past warranty, if that was the case.
I'm finding it a pain in the ass to find a AFR gauge at a decent price just for tuning. Everything is around the $200 mark and the usual AFR gauges only go to 20:1
Read post 157.Show us the fire wall tag looks like a 1hdt head to me even though bottom half might be more 1hz
I was just watching my new issue of 4wd action Australia DVD issue 221 and the bloke has an 80 series and I swear he said it has a 1hz-t in it some one else watch it and double check
Some great info you found Damien..now where are all those non believers now like Roscowho said you couldn't find a needle in a haystack

unfortunately you can't read the VIN (chassis No.) on its own, it's TWO43PB5009000097, but its clearly a HZB50. If someone knows how to crosscheck an engine number, be my guest.

this one's still running strong after 20 years, well after the guarantee period i would think. In my search I found there are actually quite a lot of these Caetano Optimo III still running around today. That's enough evidence for me to believe that the 1HZ-T was factory engineered, produced and ultimately a success.
The 1HD-T may have been the better option for toyota to choose being DI, but that doesn't mean the 1HZ-T developed in parallel isn't a reliable option... of course I mean a real 1HZ-T with the factory internal parts that make it different from the 1HZ, not just slapping on a turbo kit.
Akella, was this pic from a caetano or a coaster ?forgot to add some pictures
