- if you want to turbo a tb42 then this is for you. I tried to fit as much information i could into the shortest time possible, it turned out really long but hopefully theres some valuable information in her for you.

This was a sick video I've got a tb and have thought about doing a turbo setup but being new to the 4x4 scene all the research has been a put off this video just solved and explained pretty much everything thanks mate keep up the awesome work
Thanks for watching mate! Happy to hear it’s been a help. The patrol Tb turbo page has a lot of info on it too on Facebook.
This is MINT! I put my turbo on a while before you uploaded this but you have put all the info i could find on the web and more into one video, AWESOME! For anyone watching this for a TB45 turbo install, based on doing mine and what i have found on the web most of this applys to TB45 as well, including the water drain in the block and the oil feed position and thread. I wish you did this earlier lol, i have learnt most of these lessons the hard way...
Haha well Atleast the info is here now. Tb45 have side feed injectors and one piece intake manifold. That’s about the only difference. Cheers
I was glued to the screen all the way through. My '91 Maverick auto could use a tickle. I've got to get on top of my overheating problem first!
Thanks for watching mate! I’d be checking the radiator and viscous hub out first if it’s over heating!
THANK THE LORD the video I’ve been waiting for mate. Been following for a while!
Have spent the last few months researching on forums & FB. Have worked the general idea out but this was the final touch I needed to give me the OK to start my build.
Tb42e with 5 - 8psi is all I want 🤘🏻
Much appreciated mate
Thanks for watching mate! Good to hear it’s been a help. Get out in the shed and make it happen!
Brilliant video mate,
I am doing a TB45E turbo setup, assuming it’s very very similar, so all the information was greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks for checking it out mate. Only real difference is the injectors. Need a top feed rail conversion, and the forward facing plenum doesn’t work. Also keep in mind the smaller rods, can’t handle as much power.
@@DanielKistler yer I am only looking at running about 7-10 ponds of boost….
Should be ok for that 🤔🤔🤔
Thank you for a ton of info.
This is a great start to help me toward a minor upgrade to my truck.
Hope to see you on the tracks some time when she is done
Thanks for checking it out mate, see you around
Love ya work mate all very helpful info all in one spot for someone who has questions but doesn’t want to deal with the bullshit of forums. 🤙🏼
Cheers mate. Good to hear it was helpful!
Big fan of your operation.
Thanks mate
Bloody ripper clip!! Highly appreciate it when people do a good video on what it costs average Aussie joe blow to do these things. I wish there was a video like this on hiluxs, deciding to not follow the crowd with a ct20 has been a headache at best but hopefully it’ll pay off with my boost curve! This was a good watch and I’m not even looking to build a tb!
Thanks for watching mate.
I bloody love this stuff, would love another 50 min vid 🤣
It was painful to edit 😂😂 cheers mate
Awesome video Daniel!! Love the explanation of how to get rid of the carbi 😂 love the shed videos, keep up the good work 👌
Haha the only thing to do with them is throw them in the bin! Cheers
yeeewl, been pulling my TB down last few days, been looking forward to this vid. made it to the end, like always lol
Haha thanks for watching mate! Cheers
Hey mate, love your work, very informative. I refurbished my TB42e about 2 years ago and had a custom made headgasket made from a mob in NSW and I got my self a set of ARP head studs, they make ones with the right thread that goes in the block but I had to cut about 10mm off them. They work great.
Thanks mate! Yeah I have heard arp will do a stud that works but Havnt done much research personally so I didn’t mention it. Cheers
Great video with heaps of info, going to turbo the tb45 in my GU now instead of a conversion, keep up the awesome content 👍
Thanks for watching mate! Tb45 is a little bit different, they have smaller/light rods to reduce rotating mass but that also means they aren’t as strong, so it’s a good idea to keep the boost lower unless you swap some other rods in. People use tb42 rods with the 45 pistons. Also the intake manifolds are one piece and the injectors are side feed. Cheers
Great Video! Thanks for making it this detailed , looking forward to future videos !
Thanks mate
Awesome bit of info, thank you for taking the time to put it all together :)
Thanks for watching it mate
Thanks for the upload, always watch till the end! You make it pretty easy!
Tb look like really good engine, would love to build one one day
Cheers mate 🍻🍻
Thanks mate! They are a pretty good engine for something designed in the 80s haha! Cheers
Love it mate heaps of info! Will be using this as a guide for a EFI/turbo conversion on a mates GQ
Thanks for watching mate!
Great vid! As a td42 owner it’s great to get this info for a good alternative to a Barra on an LS conversion with probably less long term headaches with reliability etc. Impressive torque and power from your setups, do you know if they have crank snapping issues like a tuned up td42? Do they share a similar bottom end design?? Cheers
In my opinion it’s a better option than an engine conversion! As far as I know I Havnt seen any cranks broken. Possibly less harmonics in the petrol engine. The bottom end design is fairly similar!
Hey Dan lov the vid mate awesome information mate I’ve decided to throw the tb42 carb in the bin mate going down tb45e mate for fuel injection and still keeping the 5 speed but I am thinking of going down the turbo way with her but cheers for the vid mate you have give awesome information mate thanks again Dan keep those vids coming mate
Cheers mark 👍😁

Mean bro can’t wait to c wat you put in race truck next
Cheers mate
Great video mate! Not many people do an explained video, well done just make more 😂
Thanks mate!
Top notch as usual 👍🏼
Cheers mate
Nice,
Very informative, so then no 1JZ going in ? There is still time to change your mind!!
Keep up the good work
Cheers
Thanks mate! You’ll have to wait until next week to see what motors going in haha.
Awesome Cheers Dan 🤙🏻thank you I appreciate the video
Thanks for watching mate
Top video mate! Heaps of info f^*king brain overload😂🍻👍
Haha thanks for watching mate!
Daniel Kistler It’s my church mate my weekly thing🍻
Thanks heaps again
No problem mate.
Grouse video mate, im a toyota bloke with a 1fz turbo. Seems the tb42 is basically the same if you wanna strap a spinny boi on them
Thanks mate! Basically the same process other than the fz is double overhead cam. Same as the 48! Cheers
@@DanielKistler yeah exactly and goin off your setup compared to mine its almost identical (less water meth) +headstuds so gives me a bit more confidence it will hold up to a beating. Hopefully dopey dan doesnt lockdown regional and i can go away next weekend 🤞
I dont drive my tb42 above 2 thousand for normal driving. But mine does have about 400k on the clock. Clock broke first, still all factory. Wonder if a turbo would help the 24litres to 100kms
I get better fuel economy that 24 per hundred, but also triple the power haha! If your willing to invest the money then it’s worth it.
Good vid mate keep em up
Thanks mate
Great video Daniel and very helpful. I may have missed it but do you have a part number for that truck air box you're using?
Thanks for watching mate. Don’t think I had an airbox part number there but it’s a fleetguard brand. Probably on their website
@@DanielKistler Awesome thanks mate, i'll suss it out now, Cheers.
i watched the whole video very indepth look at turboing tho the mrs was lost in the first minute
Haha thanks mate
hey mate, great video. I've got a couple of burnt valves in my TB, so I will be ripping the head off and replacing the valves, machining out and replacing the seats and putting in better springs and new gaskets and O-rings etc. As I am definitely chasing more power I want to accommodate future upgrades, the car goes pretty well how it is but what are my options for bigger valves? is there room in the head for them and enough gap between the valves for them? and if so where can I get them? don't want to spend a crazy amount but would like to do that if I am going as far as doing the machine work anyway... I will also be porting the head too. thanks.
Hey mate, thanks for watching. Personally I wouldn’t worry about bigger valves. Maybe if you were keeping it non turboed. I’ve had one of my heads ported out but Havnt done a back to back to see the difference. Cheers
Great vid, mate. Is that 1/8” BSPT to male oil feed adapter below cylinder 6, AN4 or AN6?
Good video Daniel,would you recommend a rebuild on a 390k motor before fitting a turbo
Thanks mate. Hard to say, depends on the life it’s had. Wouldn’t hurt to pull the head off and check out the cylinders. Get the head checked out and chuck a fresh gasket in with new bolts.
How do the autos go behind a mildly tuned tb turbski?
Manual valve body and away you go mate!
@@DanielKistler thanks Daniel.
Hi! You never mentioned the bottom end. Do you leave it stock? No rods, pistons and acl bearings? Do you never modify ignition system?
Bottom end doesn’t need anything if your not chasing huge numbers. I updated to individual coils with the Haltech. No need for the dizzy then, only for the cas
Gday mate I don’t fully understand all the numbers. Im hoping you can give me your opinion on this turbo. Im planing on a tb42e turbo low boost maybe 8psi but I want something that will get boost early on I don’t need it to do 15psi at 5500 rpm just want it to come on early and hold until about 4500 at most. What do you think I’d get from this
Turbo Details
Flange: T3
Cooled Type: Oil cooled
Bearing: Journal bearing
Turbine port: V band
Waste gate actuator : Adjustable from 7.5psi - 14.53 psi
Housr Power: 300-400 HP
Compressor Wheel: A / R: 0.5 ||Ind:50.5 mm|| Exd:76 mm|| Trim: 44.2
Turbiner Wheel: A / R:0.63 ||Ind:65.5 mm|| Exd:55.9 mm|| Trim: 72.8
Hey mate, is that a cheap turbo off eBay?
@@DanielKistler yep sure is just want it for a month or 2 to sus out weather or not it’s the right size so I know what to buy in decent quality. So as for the size of it what are your thoughts
@@robertmaher2981 personally wouldn’t waste my time, if your only looking at using it for a month or 2 you’ll then have to re make the dump pipe and your lines to mount a new one. The sizing is pretty average, I ran one for a while and wish I didnt. There is heaps of info out there with dyno sheets to back it up on what’s a good size turbo. You want laggy but a hard punch high in the rpm’s then use a falcon turbo, 3582 size. If you want a low punchy boost set up then something along the lines of a 3076 .82 rear. Or alternatively a hypergear atr43 which is what I run on my race car and love it.
How much boost is the maximum the Nistune board can take?
Awesome video Dan, very informative and no BS the whole way through
Bloody legend.
The standard afm will be the limiting factor but somewhere around 10 is where I had mine at when I had a basic set up with a nistune! Thanks for watching mate.
Hey mate just thinking of turboing my carby gas tb and was wondering what the best blow through carby was and the best way to have the gas go through with boost or how that is set up
Hey mate I’d personally just go with an efi set up.
i have a TB45 patrol and i was thinking of putting a turbo on it but i hear you have to change the insides, because they cant handle it apparently
Thanks for watching mate! Tb45 is a little bit different, they have smaller/light rods to reduce rotating mass but that also means they aren’t as strong, so it’s a good idea to keep the boost lower unless you swap some other rods in. People use tb42 rods with the 45 pistons. Also the intake manifolds are one piece and the injectors are side feed. Cheers
Is this one of your best performing videos?
Nah, but it’s probably around top 10
HEY BRO WHAT'S THE CHEAPEST WAY TO TURBO MY TB42 ITS DUAL FUEL PETROL GAS
The cheapest way is to buy a 60 series mate
PWR are Brisbane based they make the best of the best for all race teams around the world.
Yeah thought so mate. Cheers
@@DanielKistler
That was a good show, how’s that big block going, 454 fits in with a nip an tuck, I’m all for Australian made. Patriot through to the bone. 🔫🔫🛠🤌🏻🤌🏻
Thanks mate! Haha there is a big block in the shed actually.
are changing out the coils to ls1 coils a must do? If so how is it done?
Awsoem video man
Thanks mate
Hey mate, i have a TB24S with 220xxx that im converting to EFI via a Holley Sniper kit. i dont want massive power just a good amount and some noise for cheap. where are some links to parts youd use if i want to make safe HP without doing any major engine work? if theres a kit or something or some links to some parts to use id be thrilled.
Hey mate just have a quick search online. Most of the stuff I’d use is all mentioned in this video. I personally wouldn’t use that kit for efi and I also wouldn’t go into it half hearted. But that’s just me. Cheers
What sort of power could you expect from decapped injectors? Would they support 200wkw?
I originally was running them. Should see 200 with the right turbo and boost
Good day Sir, I am from the Caribbean I have a 1995 nissan patrol safari. It came with the carburetor version tb42 I wanted to know more about conversation kits to make it fuel injection and if possible turbo. I need your professional advice.
Thanks
Haman.
Gr8 video, wot do U recommend for upgrade for GQ 2.8l diesel? Cheers
Thanks mate. Havnt had anything to do with 2.8 but I do know they shear the key way on the crank and don’t really make that much power.
Is a TB42 EFI a reliable engine for a P plater looking to get into the 4x4 scene?
Yep, they are great. Don’t forget a lot of the reliability comes from how the owner looks after it. That goes for any car with any motor
Would this be the same for a tb42 in a smaller car body, considering chucking a tb42 into a drift car as a cheap substitute
Other than the plug and play loom it’s all the same.
hey mate i’ve got a tb42 carby and i’m wanting to convert to efi but i’m stuck on what kit to get as i wanna turbo mine any help would be appreciated cheers
Tb42 turbo is so 2003 get up with the times and play with zd30s m7
Says the owner of multiple 12ht motors. I think Noah used them as anchors on his arc.
Hey bud, I’m wanting to get some more power out of my tb4.2 efi but unfortunately can not turbo because I’m on my P’s. What could I do to push more power?
Hey mate, I’d just be saving your money until your off your p plates. Can’t get that much more out of them without major engine work that costs a lot and would probably make it not good for a turbo set up!
Have you been happy with your 30 ton shop press? I've been looking to buy that one.
Yeah mate it’s brilliant! Don’t know how we worked without it!
Where would I find that airbox mate? Awesome vid
I got it from a local truck joint mate
@@DanielKistler oh nice is it specific to a certain truck? Wouldn’t mind chasing one down myself actually
Not that I can think of. If you jump on the fleetguard website and search on there you’ll find it. 4 inch in and out.
@@DanielKistler cheers bud
Awesome video, iv got a tb42 carb swb, im gonna throw the carby in the bin and turbo it, would i be better off getting a tb42efi donar car swaping or just going haltech with the loom and getting the efi parts i need?
You should do a video on what is needed going from tb42 carby to haltech efi, and what tb42 efi parts you would need :)
Thanks mate, your better off just going to a Haltech and just use the efi stuff that is necessary. If I ever do a conversion I will, once you make a start on it, it’s not too hard to sort out what you need.
@@DanielKistler thanks heaps!
By “throw the carb in the bin” do you mean dont turbo a carb or just get a better one?
Don’t waste your time mate! Go efi straight up!
@@DanielKistler you reckon carby to efi is a lot of work? Been regretting getting a carby
Just use Haltech stuff! Makes it that easy and you get a far better ecu and done need an afm or anything.
I got an TB42 4.2L Petrol with Factory Carb... I'm looking to add power, what you recommend?
Everything I’ve mentioned in this video haha
@@DanielKistler lol... thats alot
Hey mate could you please send me the link of the turbo you run i can't find it for some reason
Hey mate, ebay this and it will come up. td06sl2 20g 10cm hypergear do a good one.
TB45😈
Hey mate just watched through for a second time and noticed in the dyno sheets you compared to your mates car it said yours was tuned to unleaded with his on 98. why did you choose to not tune to 98 and how do you find it?
Hey mate, must have just mis spoken. Both were tuned on 98 and mine has water meth!
@@DanielKistler Ah no worries, it just said unleaded on your wagons dyno sheet and 98 your mates. I figured it was odd haha just thought id ask.
@@albertlamontagne2347 yeah will just be the way it’s written mate. Both on 98!
Pwr is Aussie made man they are based in Brisbane man
Yeah thought so mate! Cheers
Hey man, I have a carby car im rebuilding, not sure im ready to tackle a turbo set up as yet, just wondering the basics id need to convert to efi.
Best way is to do a Haltech with a stand alone loom! Keeps it simple and easy!
@@DanielKistler and just a efi intake?
Yeah you’ll need an efi Intake with an injector rail/throttle body and you’ll need a dizzy with the cas. Coolant temp sensor too.
How many HP will get after and what turbo you are using?
Check out some of my other videos, I’ve gone into full detail with dyno results

Hi, it’s Danielkistler12@gmail.com
Got any 1fz vids like this bro ?? 80 series in particular fzj80.
Sorry mate, can’t help you there.
@@DanielKistler all good mate thanks anyway. Has anyone pushed one of these things forged and made big power yet ? Do you think under head cam would still flow enough air ?
@@mice6390 no worries. Plenty of people build 1fz motors up and make decent power. They are double overhead cam engine.
@@DanielKistlerwas talking about the tb42 bro. Could they rev as high an overhead cam engine do u think ?? Also are they all gear drive with no chain ?? I’m kinda interested in them I have 2 petrol 80 series I know the 1fz well the tb42 I really like
@@mice6390 ah sorry haha. Definitely won’t see the rpm like a double overhead cam motor will, but at one stage I was revving mine to 6000. They are chain driven on the oil pump/cam. Very basic motor, but it’s like they were built to have a turbo 😂 don’t see massive power out of them but they are still impressive considering how old they are. The one in my race car makes 310kw.
Hey, just got some questions that I’d like to ask you but was wondering if you got a instagram page or something to make it easier to ask
Hey mate, yeah I’m on Instagram just search my name and flick me a message. Cheers
