I was wondering about wireing, would like to do the same but don't know much on computer, pump wireing, can you help or email me horton@blackfoot.net with information
The manifold came from a 1990 VW Jetta. Apparently it also came on 1988-1992 Golfs & Jettas (spark ignition engines - mine came with a throttle body)What year/model did that intake manifold come from? I have a '97 1Z/AHU that I'd like use one of those on, looks like a much more efficient design in regards to air flow. Do you have any pics of the manifold after you got done reshaping the intake ports?
Hi Spulen! It varies (some places there is more - some less) I'd be happy to take more pics or measure stuff - suggestions?Can you take a comparison pic while you have it all apart?
Good idea - this will buy some space. I've already removed the bracket on the intake manifold and there is now about 1/8" clearance. The location is almost ideal for an EGT probe. If get somewhat clever, I could thread the plate for an EGT probe.Why not ditch the egr and just weld a plate over the hole?
Thanks, Spulen!Here is my K03 with the 1.2kw(I think) starter. Its noticeably shorter than your starter.
I honestly couldn't tell you. There are some folks around here who have done multiple conversions with different years of engines. I'm sure they'll have a much more comprehensive answer than I can give.What are the "choice" years or preferred model year TDI's for these types of conversions?
Mine turned out to be 60mmX60mm in the rear and 61.5mm X 70mm in the front. Bottom line: measure what you have!1984-95 60mm x 60mm x 10mm (Non-CV)
1984-95 60mm x 68.5mm x 10mm (4cyl CV)
1988-95 61.5mm x 70mm x 10mm (V6 CV)
Yeah I want to see pics too. I have has similar situations with mitsu turbos and it was just never an issue.G60ING said:pics of the crack?
Umm, these things get a little warm for plastic....JBWeld?
Yea, my DSM's exhaust mani is cracked & welded (where the runners join @ the collector) I did also notice some cracks in the turbine inlet when I was porting it. I might be able to run this.I have has similar situations with mitsu turbos and it was just never an issue
the D4D engine is easy to get; they were installed in Toyota forklift trucks. the other way to get one is to go at your favorite "JDM" speed shop who is an importer of japanese engines for the Honda/Nissan kids. They can source a japanese engine/tranny/wiring/ecu/cluster and have it sent here (canada/usa) in a container full of Type R engines...e*clipse said:Toyota does make diesels, but they were discontinued in the US market in 1985. Apparently the new diesels available everywhere else are really nice.
