Comparing a HZJ73 with a 1HZ 4.2 Diesel engine to a
HJ61 with a 12HT Turbo Diesel engine.
Both amazing trucks! CAn't go wrong with a Toyota Diesel! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Just found your channel my fj62 85 model sahara came out with the third row seats
Aussie here… yes you can turbo the 1HZ but not worth it imo.
Some people just slap a turbo on and blow holes thru the top of their pistons… if you go that route there are dedicated rebuild kits that include ceramic top piston’s, 1HD-T conrods, larger gudgeons, etc, and then you have the cost of the rebuild itself.
Far simpler to sell the stock 1HZ and use that money (including the cost of the rebuild and the kit) and for the same price buy a 1HD-T or a 1HD-FT that was actually engineered to give you the results you’re chasing.
Trying to do things on the cheap ends up costing you twice as much in the long run 🙂
very true. I feel the 1HZ is fine... sure anyone wants more power, but to me I would rather keep the reliability. It still cruises at 80mph (125kms) at 2200 rpms, just takes time to get there.
70 series has longer models also. Love these! I’m in Europe and about to get a diesel version to bring back. =)
Would you might to share how to mount the recover board on the back door? That looks awesome!
Wow love to see the cruisers all together and so many at one place
Looking forward to your comparison vid on defender with the 73. Since you are a cruiser guy hope it'll be not toyota biased review.
For a video teaser... The 4 cyl Turbo diesel 300TDI in the Defender, is incredibly surprising, faster and peppier than the 1HZ, or even a 12HT.
However, build quality, thr LC leaves the Defender in the dust...
But the Defender is much more reliable than Land rover products after it (Discos, RR etc.. ) Land Rover was Lamd Rover back then, bur since changed ownership hands too many times.
Man I love all your rigs.
70series always came with barn doors from what i have read and study but 60, 80, 100 and 105 came with the tailgate doors and also barn doors. btw the high roof is called sahara
Great vid. I have a 75 series with the 2H and a big snail. The 12HT was just the turbo version of the 2H but obviously DI instead of IDI which means you can swap them into the 75 easy as because the block was the same so same engine mounts and gearbox but id say the 2H can handle a turbo way better than a 1HZ just due to being older so was made stronger and not made to be light and more efficient like the 1HZ and the 2H being OHV opposed to the 1HZ being SOHC it has less power but has more torque at lower RPM (especially with a turbo) but great to see my favourite engine over in the states, bit hard to find a 12HT in good condition over here in Australia, i may be a little jealous 😆
I love the 12HT, and it feels just as quick as the 1HD-FT, even though the numbers (139hp vs 168hp) say different.
Hello just found your channel. Been a Toyota fan all my life and have had a couple 4 runners in the past. 1985 and a 1999. Now I'm another bucket list rig. Found a 1994 with triple lockers and in decent shape 250k miles. Most stock except upgraded bumper and light bar. Looking forward to building this rig up and making it my own.
awesome! You are graduating to the ultimate with an 80! And with 94, you dont have to worry about airbags, and you still have the 212hp 24 valve inline 6.
@@CruisingTheLand Been looking for a few months. I live in Redding CA. Going to fly to Portland next week and meet the seller, he lives in Southern Washington. Yes I really off-road, so didn't really want to deal with the air bags.
Love that steering wheel. I'm going to look for it now lol
Nice video I'm learning a lot. A 1987 Toyota BJ74LX Diesel Turbo 13BT motor what do you think?
Love my 1985 BJ74!!! 13bt great motor!!!!
another motor we never got!
Hj61 so damn good looking
Hey great video I want to know the fuel economy 1hz and 12ht how many liters per 100 km
I love it just the way it is.
Hi, I'm t rying to do leaf over spring and cant find much on a 70 series. Would you happen to know what was replaced to do this? Thanks!
The 61 should have factory fender flares on being it’s a high top
I currently have an H motor, a 1HZ, an original B and a 3L, respectively in a HJ45, HZJ70, BJ40 and the newest to the collection, a 1997 Hilux LN106...last year with the solid front axle. I agree with all the info regarding the 1hz, not the fastest motor but a serious off road workhorse that will last longer that the vehicle itself! I would love to swap in a 12HT to any future HJ45 build, the Aussies seem to know what works!
very nice! Where arr you located?
I am thinking to do a fun 0-60 drag race between my HJ61 and HZJ73
@@CruisingTheLand Currently in Costa Rica working on my land cruiser addiction, but will be back in SoCal in July. I have a built Suzuki Samurai I can toss into the race...but it would be flat towed behind my 1991 Econoline 350 7.3 IDI camper van to make it competitive!! LOL
I ha e a 1986 hj61 with 3rd row seats and sliding rear windows and rear a.c
I would not turbo the 1HZ unless you use turbo pistons...the stock ones are thin above the top ring...but you can compound the 12ht and make a weapon....
The 61 was stopped in 91. There are 91 model years of the 61. Probably the very last ones.
Your wrong on the HJ means JDM, HJ means it has the Diesel motor, FJ means it’s petrol. And reading some of the comments in this video, there’s nothing wrong with putting a turbo on the 1HZ most people here in Australia slap a turbo on and they will keep going no dramas. I have builds heaps of big power turbo 1HZ’s with no problems, the best diesel motor Toyota built is the 1HD-FTE
I hear the 12HT can be a beast with bigger turbos, but HZ1 isn't set up for it with the pistons. Sure it will work a while but...
@@CruisingTheLand if it’s done right you won’t have a problem, heat is the killer which is caused by over fuelling, heaps of guys run 25+ Psi of boost at a stock 1HZ and she will chop it all day
I own a HDJ80 1996 with the 1HDFT which I am contemplating to switch out for a HJ61 with the 12HT. Also looking for to install an intercooler, up the injectors to +30, getting a 3 inch exhaust and finally mounting a beefed up Gturbo. My HDJ80 is stock so I think that the HJ61 will be quick enough after these mods. Probably quicker as well due the lower curb weight.
I have both (1hd-FT) and the HJ61 and the 61 keeps up. The 96 HJ81 pulls aways slightly..Neither is modded.
Legit, Jamie.... great looking cruisers.... I'm itching for a Diesel 70 series of my own!!
They are the ultimate!
Love them ..why are you're speedometers disconnected..I have a few cruisers..my favorite is the 80series.
GodIlla new one is on order.
How are you importing based in ireland and im looking to import one
For the 1HZ put a turbo on it and a 3'' exhaust on it will rock then $3500 AUD
Curious if you have to take these to a specialist for service? Love the rigs!
I bring to a Toyota master, who knows diesels.
I have a 96' 4.5 FZJ73.
4.0 & 4.2 are too slow for uphill or highways. Damn fine vehicles tho! You're a lucky guy.
yes, I had a FJ62 with the 3FE... and its a slug. The FZJ80 does well, but the 1HD-FT seems to pull up a steep grade hill with more ease compared to the FZJ, without kicking down a gear... holds speed (70mph) whereas the FZJ feels like its struggling and losing power... I am talking steep...
@@CruisingTheLand I can believe that. Besides, we don't have land cruisers for speed! We have them because where they can go and the reliability. I live in Colombia and it's just a old Toyota heaven. Old 40-80s everywhere.
@@saintarmstrong8790 That must be nice to see them often!
Hey nice video. Btw you said that 80s on the end is for sale ? What’s specs mileage price ?
It is a 1997 FXJ80, 242k miles
California car, rust free
Has Dobinson lift, Ironman front bar and upper/lower control arms, ARB lockers and compressor, 4.88s, 35s, and much more. 29k
Nice … thanks for replying but it’s out of my budget.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I didn’t search all but did anyone ask?? Why are all the speedometers/odometers disconnected 296,573.3 never moved
No air bags... we die like real men 🤣
Toyota 3B🐌🐌🐌👍👍
Does the 1HZ 70 Series have glow plugs? Saw the instant start up, curious if you had warmed it up before hand.
No glow plugs.. Starts right up
@@CruisingTheLand Interesting! Thanks for letting me know, big fan of the inline-6 LC
@@CruisingTheLandit has glow plugs you can see them in the video, it’s just that you don’t need to glow them in warm weather, in really cold climates you may need to glow them twice
Indeed "goatlc'
What kind of mpg are you getting? Have you tried towing?
I haven't towed with either of these..Probably 4- 5k Lbs max.
MPGs are in the 20s
Does anyone in America know who I could use as an importer for Left hand drive vehicles 25 years and older ? I'd prefer to use an import service than go to a port and pick it up myself . I live in the Midwest . No time for that .
Is the HZJ73 on a stock diff gearing or was it re-geared for the 37s?
stock diff
As a canadian you missed saying we got diesel toyotas. I have an 82 BJ42.
yes, but not in US. US must wait 25 years to import, even from Canada
1HD-FT and FTE are the best motors to come in a Land Cruiser, shame they didn't come in the 105 series
What came in the 105?
@@CruisingTheLand 1fz 4.5 petrol and the 1hz 4.2 diesel. No turbo diesel options at all, kinda sad for Toyota's last true land cruiser still being solid axle front and rear
really, the 1hz must be underpowered in a 105... and the 1FZ-FE is just a gas guzzler
@@CruisingTheLand yep seems like no real step forward from the 80, more of a step backward as there was only 2 n/a options.
Yea 12-HT is probably the best engine. 1HZ is also amazing.
How about the 1HD-FTE?
@@CruisingTheLandundoubtedly way more powerful the 12H-T but in case of an issue (which will always happen), much less simple to fix, electronic injection pump, more likely to wrong in the long run.
Not getting diesels really shows....not all are 24v and a few other just made up comments I noticed too.....saying a 1hz is like a h and 2h it ridiculous....completely different motor inlet and exhaust are opposite to start with....and saying 3rd row didn't start till the 80 series and also saying bloke put a 12ht in 80s well they came factory it's called a hj80 the hzj80 was a 1hz
Aussie here my 1996 80 series gxl has a 1hz in it and is very reliable, nicknamed it the slug
you can turbo it?
As far as I know Toyota make a turbo version of 1HZ...so I guess it can be done. Perhaps very little changes are needed in order to make it happen.
Are you going modify all your Cruisers or restore some to original / factory condition?
The HZJ73 is all original, except for the lift/tires and front Bumper. These are all things that can be reversed and put bacl to OEM spec.
However, I much prefer the 73 lifted, completely changes the vehicle and its offroad capability.
I dont modify the mechanical parts (engine, turbo, radiator etc...) just suspensions. But there is a reason on higher mileage Landcruisers that when shocks go, people upgrade to OME or others... because its better. For instance, put King Shocks on my 80 Diesel. But Kings would make any vehicle superior to Factory.
Only vehicle I have that is heavily modified is my FJ40... It has 80 rear axle, 60 front axle, V8 Vortec, Orion transfer case, SM420 trans etc .. but it is a crawler.
How is a diesel 80 LHD manual . Are 1HD-FT engines reliable
The 1HD-FT 24 valve engines are reliable and sought after. Any 80 manual would be amazing. In the US we only got automatic, and gas FJ80 ans FZJ80s. So diesel is a big deal, as well as manual.
If you can drive manual, RHD is easy and 2nd nature.
@@CruisingTheLand Thank you
3rd row didn’t start in the 80 series it started in the 1985 hj61
I see that, JDM only, but you can buy used and install in a 60 or 62
Wow I've never seen a 70 with automatic transmission..
wish it was manual!
60 any day tbh
100% agreed!
EPA killed importation of of Toyota Diesel trucks and vans cause it would destroy US truck and van manufacturers
still not interested in the FJ75
It is in the US?
Yes Tennessee to be exact
@@noelgriffith13801984 how much?
18000$ as is
is there a link to see it?
You interested in selling? And or is there a possibility to still buy the older one I want it with the extended pto winch and bumper.
Which one of these are you referring to? Which one do you think is older?
@@CruisingTheLand the 70 is the one I like.
@Joe smith That one is a 1992, the HJ61 is a 1990, so technically the older one.
@Cruising The Land cool. I like the 70 series more. Those 37" don't look big on it at all . Weird. I have a 2001 tacoma those would be like monster truck tires on it .
80 series is the best
You should check out my 80 series videos.. I compare to 60, and compare to 100. I also do a diesel 80 vs gas 80..
They are all on my channel.
Or search 80 vs 60 Landcruiser and you will see it.
