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.
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.
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...
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?
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 😂
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.
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
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.
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?

How much does a suspension set up like that cost you in the US? We'd get defected by the cops going anywhere near a public road in Australia with a set up like that
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
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.

Well it’s hard for me... I’m the only one who works and pays for everything.... I have a little family I started and I live in Hawaii since I was 19 on my own... I don’t have family here just the one I started....times is hard but I’m pretty sure in like 10 to 15 hopefully it can happen...

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 😂😂
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.
0 to 60 in 19 seconds! Man, that truck hauls ass!!
I have a comanche and Cherokees, but ive always liked these little Toyota trucks,
I love Comanches
I love how you painted the turbo red it's class
How many Niemelas are there! You guys all have great content! Keep up the good work man!
Lonne Hessdorfer thank you!
Did it bolt up to the stock trans?
Great job, clean install, hope mine turns out as good
Jamie Twigg thank you and the best of luck on your build!!
Nice truck, i used to have a 93 with a isuzu 4bd-1t swapped in it. Thing was a beast!
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...

Finally! After waiting for EVERYTHING
Damn she looks tall out of the shop
Devin Niemela I know lol looks way bigger!!
Too tall in my opinion.
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 🤙
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

I haven't checked the mileage but i am expecting 25+ MPG!
Looks awesome. Always wanted to put a diesel into a yota. Nice work.
ANDY C thank you!!!!
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

How did you get the revs to display in the toyota cluster?
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.

I like the way you put a deseil engine in it
Hey how r ya.why ur truck smoke when u shift gears caused u have the diesel engine

Im not sure! It pushes the toyota on 35's around great!
Sick build! How's fuel economy? Thinking of doing a swap in a c10
Lawson Turner not sure yet! I’m expecting 20-30. My alh jetta gets 45mpg pretty built up
Where could get adapter plate made?
Doors with the corner window? Which year fits? I have a 90.
Fucking wicked man! Not everyday you see a toyota pickup build! Especially one like that
Clutch slipping with Toyota trans or VW??

Hi how did you fix the clutch slip?
Excuse me...i didn't found that anywhere... What is cubature (cubic capacity) of engine? By the way this car is my dream
It's crazy to think that my tiny Skoda Fabia has the same engine
Hopefully you can put a upgraded gauges set up
Kik Del yup that’s on the list!!
