Alrite I know this has been talked about a ton before and I've been researching the crap out of this but I've not really found what I want information wise, well kinda. I love troopers and I want a diesel trooper very bad but the 2.23L is under powered. Honestly I wish I could find a 4JB1-T but even if I got one at decent price its a motor that was never in US troopers so parts would be so darn hard to find for it. Maybe this can become some kind of collection of Diesel Trooper information thread. Is there any good diesel motor to put in the 1st gen troopers?
I know the NPR motor is too heavy, although I think a NPR made into a trail rig would be pretty cool but I need more information on them before I plan anything like that. Isuzudieselswapper.com has some pretty cool stuff but whats the point of having an Isuzu diesel if I ditch the Isuzu platform? Apparently the NPR motor is a popular swap for lots of machines. I'm borderline tossing around the idea of just making a rig out of NPR it self, granted if I could find one thats 5speed and 4wd
information so far
N/A C223 is kinda underpowered
4DB1T is stupid heavy
4JB1-T never came to america = hard to find parts(Except in an industrial format)
Compression on C223 is 21:1 N/A or Turbo'd
Links I thought were useful
