First off let me start by saying I'm new on here, although I have been stalking this forum for years. I currently have a 2000 jetta TDI in which I commute 75 miles one way daily. This car has been modded due to the inspiration of the people on this forum.
3" exhaust, .216 injectors, Kerma tune, SAchs Vr6 clutch, Homemade race pipe etc....
Now its time for a new project...
I have a 1992 toyota pickup that I have had for a couple years. It has only 60k original miles and is in amazing shape (both body and frame). The original owner bought it new and immediately turned it into a lifted show truck so its never really been beat on. It has 11" of lift and 38" super swamper tires. The current driveline consists of a ford 5.0l liter with a Kenne bell supercharger w/ a homemade custom intake manifold I built myself to allow the use of A2A interecooler with a honda civic radiator mounted in the bed, C4 transmission mated to dual toyota transfer cases and a SAS with a toyota axle out of an early 1980s yota.
I have always been a diesel junky and have owned many ford powerstrokes long before my VW days (still have a 1996 F250 sb cc and a 1997 mason dump. Both frame off restorations).
I always wanted a toyota with a diesel and the opportunity is here with a score of a great running 2001 VW TDI I found. The motor had a new head abd pistions (timing belt blew) 20k miles before the accident.
So I sold the Motor out of the truck and ordered up the ACME adapters kit, a marlin crawler 1600lbs ceramic clutch, found a good W56 trans, stripped out the motor and wiring harness on the VW and decided to give it a go...
I have some pics to show but can't figure out how to post them please let me know how to do and I will...
