It's crazy how common it is for Toyota to have diesel engines in the rest of the world. Yet they have never had any in the North American market. My belief is that Toyota would sell even more trucks if they offered a diesel variant.
I had a 1980's Toyota pickup I bought used from my uncle who bought it new. Great mileage, but very slow , was a great shop truck. My dad would up selling it when I left home.
@shaant Jaglal ...I didn't mind it being slow, (Non torbo,)the speed limit was only 55 mph, the little workhorse got 45 mpg and diesel was 85 cents a gallon !
shaant Jaglal Yes that is what the Americans don’t understand. The EPA is making it so hard to automakers to meet their stringent demands. Why would Toyota want to play their games when in other countries they can build Diesels that aren’t choked down and smogged up. We are already seeing the complications in gas engines which start burning oils because automakers like Toyota, Subaru, and Honda are using low friction rings to get more MPG because the EPA is bearing down upon them. Thats why Subaru is using CVT to make up for the decreased MPG of all wheel drive.
Austin Niemela My last sentence may have gave the wrong idea. I basically just meant thanks for driving it. I don’t like the videos where you watch the whole thing and didn’t get to see it drive. Respect for taking it easy. A guy has to make sure the bugs are worked out.
I lived in Chile for 2 years. Powerstroke diesel Ford Ranger Turbo diesel Nissan Terrano Turbo diesel Toyota Hilux Turbo diesel Chevy LUV They were awesome pickups.
Happy to see you more comfortable on camera, love how the yota looks! And yeah Cam is right, it does sounds like an older one at some RPMs My dad has a 1985 and sounds kinda like that at low RPMs 😂
Just discovered your channel. I've subscribed. You know the other day I was thinking how cool it would be to swap the current 2.8ltr TDI hilux engine for the Amarok V6 TDI engine...
Any idea what this thing is getting for fuel millage? Most wouldn't care when running these tires or any lift. But I'm curious how these smaller diesels do. Stock they get 45-50 in a light car, even if you got 25 in that rig it would be great compared to any gas engine.
That truck looks amazing man. Congrats so much work most people would never attempt. Merry Christmas to all you guys love all of your content. I know I don’t see you guys in person a lot but all 3 of the channels give me inspiration and thank you for that. Hell ya that truck could probably climb a wall interested for more content 🤘🇺🇸😎 hit me up if you ever need anything for the shops.
@@trevorjaster4072 State laws and even County ordinances are crazy when it comes to engine swaps, particularly of the diesel variety. depending on where this truck is, I'd say odds are that you simply wouldn't be able to register or insure it. There are some states where you could even get a no plate or no insurance ticket anywhere except private property. Being a diesel fan myself I love this swap, but unless this Toyota is a strictly trail rig, I'd say that the owner might be in for a surprise when he takes it to the dmv. Point is, do your homework before you come to class. Oh and if whoever created this content is reading, hows about we hear it straight from you?
Austin Niemela so weird is there any reason for that i have a 2nd gen 4runner with a 2.8 na deisel and i now have a 3rd gen 4runner with a factory 3.0 turbo deisel
Austin Niemela i’m from australia that’s probably why we have hilux landcruiser and older 4runners but they stopped making them in the 90s i have a 3rd gen tho because it’s a import i can send you some pics of it. you want if you have a instagram everyone loves the toyota deisel here rare to find a petrol but yet again they love to turbo the petrols here too ahah
nice job man! im currently building a 1990 mazda b series with a toyota frame and toyota axles (SAS of course) with a 1.6idi vw diesel haha! your swap is motivation for me to get mine finished. what have you got into the swap?
This is another reason why I hate living in California! You cant fart out here, without the EPA showing up to your house. The liberals would throw you in prison, for a diesel swap like this🤣.
How heavy of a vehicle do you think this engine could support with 35s? Maybe 37s (10.5 wide or 12.5) for daily driving? Collecting parts for a Rat truck 4x4 build and would love to throw a tdi in it.
Hey man. I love your videos. Keep up the good work, and great job on that truck. I had a question. What size of lift and tires do you have on that truck?
@@austinniemela Thanks for that info. I honestly thought that was a bigger lift. And those tires look huge. Keep up the good work. Nice job on that truck. Keep making good videos.
Good afternoon boys thanks for the good work but if I want to get a 12ht for hj45 do you have any idea how much much will it with 5 speed trani thanks if respond
The 3.4 in the Tacomas are almost indestructible, however this is not a Tacoma and the 3.0s in the pre Tacoma pickups were notorious for blowing the head gasket
@@austinniemela I've had to many to count including diesels , I had a 1992 Tacoma 3.0 that went 675k then I replaced the shifter bushing , poor gas milage otherwise bulletproof and I still see it around but 3.4 is much more refined !

they had diesels in 84 85 and 86 pickups in north america

0 to 60 in 19 seconds! Man, that truck hauls ass!!
These mates over here have no clue about a old school hilux 🤙 welcome to the diesel yota life
Haha yea yea you all are spoiled!!
We had a Hilux while deployed in Afghanistan for driving on post the thing was awesome.
I had a friend in high school that had a factory Toyota diesel pickup in the early 80s
That thing puts out some good Prius repellent
OffTheBeatenPathParenting Haha I wouldn’t mind driving one if they made a wide body kit for them
Cameron Niemela wide body and a 2jz swap ? Or is that too far ?
crutksdub no that’s a Mini Cooper
Haha Didn't expect to see you here
I’m dead 😂😂
I have a comanche and Cherokees, but ive always liked these little Toyota trucks,
I love Comanches
I watched the whole vid, but thanks for not waiting til the last 30 seconds to let us hear it run. Drive that shit like it it was meant to be 👍🏻
Trying not to smoke a brand new clutch...

Lonne Hessdorfer thank you!
I love how you painted the turbo red it's class
Great job, clean install, hope mine turns out as good
Jamie Twigg thank you and the best of luck on your build!!
Finally! After waiting for EVERYTHING
Nice truck, i used to have a 93 with a isuzu 4bd-1t swapped in it. Thing was a beast!
Im more of a 3.4 swap guy myself. Best engine yota ever made, period.
You probably talking about the 3b ingine I have a bj73 Toyota Land Cruiser 1987
Damn she looks tall out of the shop
Devin Niemela I know lol looks way bigger!!
Too tall in my opinion.
Drive that beast in hawaii, you’ll have everyone looking at it every corner
It would never pass inspection
Yeah looking to steal it.
@@Threewolfs- doesn't bother them. Plenty of yotis here with no title, stolen trucks, illegal lifts and tire widths.
Watching this makes me miss my family in spokane and newport
Fucking wicked man! Not everyday you see a toyota pickup build! Especially one like that
I lived in Chile for 2 years.
Powerstroke diesel Ford Ranger
Turbo diesel Nissan Terrano
Turbo diesel Toyota Hilux
Turbo diesel Chevy LUV
They were awesome pickups.
Diesel frontier and frontier for this part of the world as np300 ChevroletColorado vw Amarok
That's bad ass man! I can't wait to have my TDI swap done
corey molyneaux they run sweet in a truck especially with a big turbski
@@austinniemela yeah man definitely! I'm doing a 2wd b2200 with .260 injectors and a 1756 turbo. The truck should weigh in around 2300 lbs
corey molyneaux nice! That should move great! The 1856 in the truck is impressive and I haven’t even pinned it yet haha
@@austinniemela that should be a blast once you get a clutch that holds! I think mine should make a cheap and fun daily 🤙
Happy to see you more comfortable on camera, love how the yota looks! And yeah Cam is right, it does sounds like an older one at some RPMs
My dad has a 1985 and sounds kinda like that at low RPMs 😂
Looks awesome. Always wanted to put a diesel into a yota. Nice work.
ANDY C thank you!!!!
Nice toy man! Love the front axle swap
Niicceee I've got a 2006 1.9 BRM in my 95 YJ with 35s and a 4 inch lift... Stage. 2 tune from malone getting about 30-35mpg on the highway with 4.10s
E C hell yeah that’s good mileage!!
Just discovered your channel. I've subscribed. You know the other day I was thinking how cool it would be to swap the current 2.8ltr TDI hilux engine for the Amarok V6 TDI engine...
I just saw that VW Amarok diesel engine on a Mexican VW truck, it was really something. That engine is impressive.
Did it bolt up to the stock trans?
That's a burley Toyota 👍🏻 Sounds sweet! Great job!! Keep up the grind, it's appreciated 💯👊🏻
Cory Tryon thanks man!!
Hell yeah bro!!! So stoked for you
Also who was doucher in the half wrapped evo at 1:55
Chaz Ridler 🤘🤘 haha some tard in a rice burner 😂😂
Thats motor sounds dope gunna do the tdi swap on 09 wrangler for sure
Just found this last night you did awesome job I am jelly
It's crazy to think that my tiny Skoda Fabia has the same engine
finaly she is alive nice work man sounds good
diego the beast 👍👍 thank you!!
Predator needs to start making diesels so we can all swap them into our little trucks
I am looking to replace my 3.slow on my 1994 solid axle 4x4 4Runner. It is an automatic. What manual transmission did you match your TDI with?
Im using the R150F trans
Any idea what this thing is getting for fuel millage? Most wouldn't care when running these tires or any lift. But I'm curious how these smaller diesels do. Stock they get 45-50 in a light car, even if you got 25 in that rig it would be great compared to any gas engine.

Toyota should actually make tdi tundras so they can challenge Dodge, Chevy, and Ford.
Its nice to see in other countrys pretty common in dr tho
Try this on a 2.7 regular cab Toyota Tacoma
Your truck is so sick!
Bradley tikka thanks man!!
omg this thing is amazing
i love when people making something different !!!!!!!!
Yes!! I love different!!
Hearing that sound coming from an old Taco is definitely odd. Pretty mean build man.
Leyenda thanks man!! It’s definitely different haha
Excellent video bro
Great work !!!!

Excuse me...i didn't found that anywhere... What is cubature (cubic capacity) of engine? By the way this car is my dream
Hopefully you can put a upgraded gauges set up

Dude how did you guys find these houses with shops? I'm trying to find one but I dont know what to look on.
Hook up with a realtor man its the easiest way! They are the first to see new listed houses
Kinda makes me wish I had a TDI and not a VW IDI
Very cool man.
Sounds like a 22re that's in need of a valve adjustment

Interesting , but the 3.0+3.4 lite that came in those Taco's were the best engines ever made !
Bruce Holinight definetly not the 3.0 lol

The three liter is a horrible engine. Blown head gaskets and worse economy than a V-8.
Only thing incorrect about this truck is that it needs to be set at correct factory ride height or lowered. This lifted look ain’t good
youngb1ood 😂
I would’ve just put a hilux in it but that’s me...
Bet yea gets better mileage then a new truck !
Shawn-micheal Brunet should get pretty good mileage!!
Other countries have them but we don’t😭 same as they can own new American cars but we have to buy 20 years or older to be able to own

How do you like the tdi so far?
Is that turbo running 1.8 bar of boost is it borg warner
Ball Park cost on the swap...i want to put one in a 96 4runner
