It's not easy to find info, so please bare with me ... and correct me when I'm wrong!
From what I gathered, the KZJ was available with the 3.0L Turbo Diesel (125hp), from model year 1993 and on (to 1996?). Saying I'm lusting after it is a gross understatement ...
If it was a 1993, I can only assume the manufacturing dates are earlier than that (doh!) ... but is there any way to figure out when exactly the first ones were built?
Why do I ask? Well, in Canada, if a car/truck is 15 years old or older (at the date of manufacture), you're free to import it, with no hassle whatsoever (similar to the US 25y/o thing).
So I guess you see where I'm going with this, now, don't you all?
... if 1993 models were assembled during june or july (or even fall!) of 1992, it means I could get ahold of one this summer/fall to drive around over here. But I'm 100% speculating on the build date, as I really have no idea when they started building them ... and I could use a bit of help here ...
Thanks in advance
