Diesel motor

Post by Theuhan »

Ok ek weet ek gaan nou bietjie houe kry.

Dit lyk of die tweede Lexus sy @#%$##% gesien het, dit lyk nie of ek, die Lexus en die modder saam werk nie.

Siende dat my Patrol as n diesel uit die fabriek uitgekom het, en diesels baie better werk met water en modder, dink ek dit is weer tyd vir n diesel.

Julle moet nou ingedagte hou ek is nou gewoond aan die krag van die Lexus en dit is n speel kar op 35" en ek wil genoeg krag he om 37" te hardloop, watter diesel sou julle gebruik.

Die oorspronklike 2.8 rd is te vlou.
Ek hou baie van die 4.2, maar ek sal hom moet turbo, wat sal dit kos, of weet julle dalk waar kan ek n turbo 4.2 motor kry.
Ek sien in Amerika kom die groot Nissan bakkies nou met Cummins 5.0 v8 diesel, so dalk sal kobus my laat ry saam met die klub as ek n Cummins diesel in sit. :lol:

Enige idees is welkom.

Ek is bietjie bekommered oor wat die 4.2 gaan kos, die motor is omtrent R25 000.00 en die opbou nog soveel, so dan kyk ons na R50 000.00 :doh:

Ek wil juis wegkom van petrol en computers, ek ry baie water en modder en daai motors like nie dit nie, weereens wat gaan n 4.5 wat bietjie getoor is my kos.

I think a turbo'd 4.2 diesel on your almost pipecar....haha... will be very powerful. Your truck if I'm not mistaken is so light now, that the 4.2 with turbo will even do some magic on a sand dune.

If you can get an older TD42 motor ( silver top ) then you score bigtime.....BUT... thy also say that the black top TD42 motor can be turbo'ed but not a heavily as the silver top TD42 due to a few differences like oil squirters under the pistons and the bigger gudgeon pins on the pistons/con rod. The problem is that my TD42 ( black top ) already has the bigger gudgeon pins and the oil squirters as standard ( and so does Micheal and Andre here on the forum who just rebuilt one), so I'm assuming that Nissan brought in the 1998 and 1999 Patrol 4.2 diesel with this engine configuration ( possibly old stock motors?? )

To put a turbo on this motor may not be that much of a cost. If the motor is a runner, buy it !!!.... open it up and check all the specs. Generally everything should still be fine, maybe replace the rings.... use the TD27 rings cause they are exactly the same as TD42 ( even though I know you have contacts ), or replace the pistons and rings with Alfin ( or Keystone pistons and rings ), as these are better for turbo'd diesels, and for what you want to use the truck for. Bearings can be replaced too, and speak to FRrans (Tour de Frans) about cutting the cam..... makes BIG power difference apparently. The cost of these parts is not that bad. Its when you have to replace the head that the cost goes a bit wild !!

Slap some new injectors in ( about R450.00 each) and a Genuine Nissan Head Gasket, and find a recon turbo. As for injector pump, Frans will correct me if I'm wrong here, but seeing as this truck is a toy truck you can probably adjust the pump to overfuel for the amount of air that is being chucked in there by the turbo. Then a moerse 4" straight through exhaust pipe, and away you go !!

Theuhan,
Weet jy waar die water die keer ingekom het?

Ek weet jy moenie die kar stol en dan restart as jy in ddie wat sit nie. En so ver moontlik aanou beweeg om nie die water tyd te gee om in die lugfilter in te loop nie. As hy gestol het, dan lewer laat uitsleep en seker maak voor jy restart.
Maar wat anders?

Hi Alex

Ek is nie seker nie, het met n paar manne gesels en almal se as jy hom moet oopmaak, sit eerder n nuwe een in, so ek het so bo langs gekyk, maar ek wil nie begin geld spandeer op hom nie.

Los daai kompliseerde tyota engines uit .. hoekom dink jy is hulle so volop en so tjiep ???
Gaan "Old Skool" -- sit n small blok Chevy daar in [327 V8 is my gunsteling ,maar 350 V8 het meer krag en is baie goedkoper om oor te doen
Kontak vir OX by "Old Skool Conversions" om jou help om lekker 350 Chevy te kry -- doen hom oor one time en kyk nooit weer terug nie
BAIE perde teen 800 RPM .. wat wil jy meer hê ???
302 Ford en 308 Chev ??? ... nie vir my nie .. maar eintlik NIKS verkeerd met hulle .. en Ben kan jou help met insit EN kry n gemeen Holley 4-keel daar ..
Mannnnnnnnn -- ek verkrag sommer vir LOBO .. so lus raak ik nou ..

OX se nr: 071 343 9394 ... hy is hier in Benoni .. net ommi hoek .
