Howdy,
I used this forum a lot with my US 2000 LC, and unfortunately it was totaled. My love for LCs is now solidified considering I put over 100,000 miles on it between the desserts of NM and Texas. I decided I wanted the diesel engine so I decided to import a 80 series from Japan. Right Drive in Canada is currently importing the car and I plan on upgrading the turbo and adding an intercooler to try to get around 225-250 reliable horsepower out of it without hurting the longevity of the engine. I will also be adding a front bumper and probably a tent on top with some solar panels and additional batteries down the road. I know I will need to change the BEBs and am looking for additional stuff that NEEDS or should get done first.
Here is my car if anyone is interested:
