Toyota Megacruiser

The 15BTFT motor has 4 valves per cyl and is well tested in Hinos trucks.
After reading about the engine problems with hummers in Iraq the yanks probably wished they had gone with the mega
You can get the same engine ,trans and axle/diffs in a 4wd hino without the rear steer.
If anyone wants to buy a mega cruiser there is often a ex civilain defence parts vehicle and a mint example on Yahoo auctions JAPAN

Of course they should, lets have a look

Nissan GQ = 4.2 with a blistering 96 kw...........peel me off the wall

The Toyota 4.2 that couldn't pull the skin of a three day old custard up a hill without a turbo...Mmmmm 100 Series 4.2 = 96 Kw and 285 Nm.

My mere 3 litre 4 pot TD (96 Kw and 343 Nm) leaves the 100 series natural diesel for dead...........and so does the Patrol 3.0 TD....

Perhaps you should have converted the figures...

The Megacruiser, although I'm not a fan of them, has 112 Kw of pwerand 382 Nm of Torque, I think that is a little bit more than the 4.2. Considering the "4 Cylinder" is 4.1 Litres, admittedly it is Intercooled Turbo, it makes the 4.2 6 cylinder look a little sad.............

I do like the 4.2 Diesel but only if it has an intercooler and turbo.......
