Hi!! I've got a 1999 3.0L (5L) Diesel D/C. I'm thinking of giving it a new heart...thought of a Lexus V8, but too many guys discouraged me.....Maybe a D4D 3.0?? Has anybody done it before? a bit more info would help...prices ect....
Thanks!

I believe there is a thread where someone built a 3.0 D4D into a SFA

Hi Christiaan! Why do you want to give it a new heart? Is there problems with the motor or do you just want some more power? What is the mileage on the motor? The reason I'm asking is because I also drive one and is quite happy with it. Mine have some 265000km on the clock.

Maak jou somme en maal dit met drie. Dan het jy amper genoeg vir 'n ombouing!

'n Lexus gaan jou ten minste R50k kos en 'n d4d ook sekerlik daar rond.

O ja, die dag as jy hom wil verkoop gaan jy niks vir hom kry nie. Of as jy Botswana staan is daai spesiale onderdele ook nie beskikbaar nie...

My voorige werkgewer het ook een soos jy gery, hy het hom na Steves Auto Clinic geneem vir een of ander versteling (kan nie meer onthou vir wat nie) en daar na het hy baie meer krag gehad en beter brandstof verbtuik.

Ek is seker hy sal nie om gee as jy hom kontak en vra wat het hy laat doen nie, Eugene by 021ag59een8een6

Took my 3000D to SAC. Not a Ferrari but a definite improvement.

They did optimisation and freeflow. Gasflow was a bit expensive in my opinion so I did not do it.

You have to be sure what you want before you start, test drive one before you make up your mind, it is sometimes better to sell it, put the 50g's ontop and upgrade to a KZTE
