Hi, thanks to many people and a lot of info on this site my Hilux 1uzfe is almost complete other than a problem with the rev counter / speedo. Because I have fitted in a R151f box from a surf I can no longer use my original speedo cluster because of the electric drive from the gearbox to the...

Hi, having problems getting my 1uz to start/idle/rev up. Am wondering do these engines have a fuel return line restrictor or do you think the pressure regulator has gone ? If I bend over the return line it seems to start better but not as well as it did in the car. Engine was removed from a UK...

Hello all, after much reading about dropping the 1uz into my Hilux and after reading many posts about which trans to use I have come to the conclusion that I need a R150F/R151F to handle the power and torque. My Hilux has a G58 currently but I have found a 1993 Hilux surf 2.4TD with 5 speed...
