SJ Diesel
hobbit:
What about the Diahatsu 4x4, are they compatible with the suzukis, not knowing anything about this side of these vehicles at all, but they have some nice diesels in their 4x4s
winchman:
I think the Diahatsu diesel would be far too heavy for ant Suzuki.
I know of a few Peugeots and lots more Vauxhall( Izuzu) engines 1.5 from a Nova
thumbs:
has anyone ever put a diesal into a vitara, currently a 1.6 8 valve petrol
if so, what enginbe, gearbox etc did you use, cheers

Hi,
I'm currently looking at fitting a 1.8 ford diesal mated to a 16v sierra gearbox into my sj410. I've seen a conversion recently and apart from the obvious exhaust, loom, addition fuel return, axle over, transmission tunnel mods etc, etc , the owner said it was fairly straight forward !!!
There's a plentiful supply of ford bits. I've bought the bits from a breaker for £200, now all i need is time.... lots of time.
P.S. if anyone has done this and can advise any major pitfalls, i'd like to know before i commit myself.
wing nut:
iv' got a pug 1.9 306 i bought last, year from a salvage yard ,was going to mot it but when i got my sammy i wanted to put the lump in that ,rhino ray used to sell the conversion plates but checking his website he seems to only do the conversion for you now(i wanna do it myself )... so i think im gonna graft an isuzu1.5 ( corsa) derv and carlton gearbox ... has anyone done this convert before and what problems did you experience.........ps pugs for sale now (cheap) :lol:
