Engine tear down.. let's go!! We couldn't believe our luck when our dream engine popped up on FB marketplace! It feels bloody surreal to be stripping it back & even though finding corrosion on the engine block is far from ideal, our lucky streak has continued (hint: replacement GENUINE Toyota engine block popping up on marketplace right when we needed it)! Stay tuned for the next couple of episodes in preparation for the Engine Build! 🤝🏻
CANNOT bloody wait for this series. Good to see some real in depth build content. Coupla awesome people making some awesome content. Keep it up team! ❤🎉
You said you won''t need the different sensors on the original intake runner as you will run an ECU that doesn't need them. Will you be running a standalone diesel engine ECU like the Baldur DID1 or something else? We never got the HDJ79 in Norway, probably not in the whole of Europe, so have no clue what the difference is in HDJ100 and HDJ79 ECU are expect no immobilizer. You mention you got a steal of a bargain on the engine, but didn't mention the actual bargain price, what was it? I found a bargain of a 1HD-T, don't know what to use it in yet, but had to pick it up! Just 1750$ AUD. Maybe put it in my HJ61, but already got the sweet 12H-T in there 🤔
Yes we will be running a standalone ECU which has no tuning limitations and is only made in Australia by Boostec (we show more on this in a later episode). The only other difference that we know of between the HDJ100 and HDJ79 ECU is the HDJ100 ECU was tuned for a tiny bit more power. We purchased the 1HD-FTE Engine secondhand for AUD $12,000 but they usually sell for closer to AUD $15,000. That's a pretty good price for a 1HD-T! The only downfall with them is they're a 12 valve head and don't flow as much air a what a 24 valve head does like the FT's & FTE's. Definitely don't swap out the 12H-T, they're a god motor as well!!
@@sand_to_outback your choice but I have run very remote over many years and never a problem only use genuine as you say anyhow enjoying watching you guys do your thing good luck
@@rockbiterhdthank you! We’ve been out remote many many times with the old 80 prior to many mods and she’s always done us well but we’re ready for the challenge of creating our dream build 🤙🏼
@@sand_to_outback go for it nothing like turning that key in the middle of nowhere and it al works and you will know every nut and bolt they are a brilliant engine the Toyota engineer started designing it ten years before it was released enjoy
@@rockbiterhdI believe Yamaha engineered the cylinder head , engine also in marine applications used by yanmar , the yanmar rocker cover is silver & I don’t believe it has the hump , allows clearance for a top mounted intercooler , it also looks better than the original black humpy cover , IMO.

Never driven on the beach...
Helped a mate do his 80 with the FTE with the 5 speed auto behind it, its a weapon.
Yeah they're bloody good cars & engines! Looking forward to running an FTE in the cruiser 🔥
I look forward to learning more about the FTE 🤙
Our upcoming episodes #5 & #6 are specifically on the Engine Build (2 Parts)!! Keep an eye out 👀
Bugger about the block. Good luck for the rest of it. 👍
Hopefully that's the only major hiccup we have! Onwards and upwards from here 🤞🏼
Dude love the hair❤❤

whats the go with the ft in the background
Why not just buy a 100 series it’s all there I have a 2005 turbo diesel fantastic
We explain in the previous episode our reasons for choosing to do a fuel rebuild on our 80 instead of buy a new car 😊
