Today I chatted about why I'm installing the Isuzu 4JJ1 engine into a Toyota Landcruiser 80 series. Lots of options out there on the market, but this combo seems to tick all of the boxes!!
Huge thanks to Aussie 4J Adaptors for creating the kit to bolt it all in - aussie4jadapters.com.au/
Love the 4j idea can’t wait to see it finished I’ve just finished a Barra swap in my 80 it’s ok on fuel I do agree it uses to much
Thanks mate, a good, powerful, fuel efficient diesel option for the 80 will be great! Love the batta swapped vehicles, but not the best for towing regularly :)
Just did a trip Melbourne to Mount Gambier with a swan used 19.5 L per 100 ok I guess for what it is
I have 4JK1 2,5L with 184 Horsepower with no problems(manual) if i had 4JJ1 i would get extra 16horsepower i think that generation goes like this Old school -> Modern diesel 4JA1 --> 4JK1 4JH1 --> 4JJ1
Why not a 1kd ?
I can get Isuzu parts much easier, plus the 4J is awesome!
mazda 3 are the best engines
Something tells me it wouldn't suit my engine swap..... :P
There a great engine until you run power then you have crank breakages,main caps breaking and block damage. Im on my 4th engine .
Yeah mate, very common, especially on a manual 4jj1. Glad I'm installing all the good bits to fix that, stay tuned ;)
@@TheEverydayExplorerAUS what good bits you planning? Ive snapped 2 x mrx cranks aswell as standard ones. Even the built motors with billet main caps and new rosso harmonic balancers still blow to bits. Im back to an unopened engine from wreckers and f44 turbo at 240hp and its lasted 10 000kms so far.
@@caseychristmas1847 Ross balancer and the new crank girdle from Modified Explorer. I feel the girdle will make the most difference, as the main caps won't be able to twist or walk on the crank, causing the stress point. So many factors so 🤞🤞
Best of luck with it mate, hopefully the engine last longer then mine did.
@@caseychristmas1847 out of curiosity, is yours manual?
Due to popularity in video's such as this, won't be long before 4JJ's are just as expensive as 1HDt's, when the wreckers cotton on to another rip-off potential.
Better get on the band wagon early then and do a 4J swap ;)
If you want power turbo an fz If you want a good mix with good economy, get an 80 series with a 1hdft If you have a 1HZ slap a turbo on it If you insist on having a 4-cylinder Land Cruiser, buy a Patrol zd30
I had a turbo 1HZ, soooo slow! Ft 80s are ridiculously expensive and hard to find in good condition. Whats the difference between 4 cylinder patrol and cruiser? I'll keep my 80 series any day ;)
4D56, most durable and longlasting engine
Thats the mits triton engine?
