I have this spare unit taken from a 1987 D21. It was working when it was removed. Let me know if it will help you. Postage could suck, I am in north east Victoria.

I have 2 speedo cables from a 92 terrano & 87 D21 4x4. They both measure about 172 cm long. If you think that one might fit please PM me.

Ever since I fitted the TD27T to my D21, the tacho has not worked. I finally decided to look at it to see why. There are two different tachos for the D21. These see different signals. If the needle goes past the red line on idle it needs a sine wave. If the needle doesn't move at all it...

Had a look at my old wiring. This is what i could find for the battery side for a TD27. Ignore the wiring that the red arrow is pointing to in the first pic. It is missing a few connectors, but from memory it controls starter, injector pump, reverse & 4wd (I may have forgotten something)...

Here is some photos of the alternator side wiring for a TD27. It should be the same for a TD25. Let me know if you need better photos.

It requires a few modifications to fit. It will bolt straight to the motor. The clutch pin needs to be approx 10mm longer due to the QD32 flywheel being thicker. The reverse switch plug on the wiring loom needs to be extended. The gearbox crossmember where it bolts to the chassis will need...

A few pics of the Terrano & Navara.

Thanks to Dion who gave up some of his time to help me with the dash conversion from the Terrano to my Navara. We also fitted the TD27T into the Navara. Just need to finish off the electrics & put the Terrano dash in.

I now have had both engines compression tested. The results are in PSI. Cylinder______TD27______TD27T 1_________490_______490 2_________450_______480 3_________450_______480 4_________470_______480 The TD27T has done almost 100,000K's less than the TD27. So its engine...

Yes that is what i am after. To transfer into my single cab ute. Any other bits that are salvageable are a bonus.

I just picked up a turbo kit for my D21. Its a 1992 Terrano that was reversed into a power pole.

Next the hand throttle cable connects to the TD differently to the SD. Its the same as the SD throttle cable mount. I made a rubber mount for it using some air con hose with an outside diameter of 19mm & inside diameter of 8mm. The inside diameter needs to be approx 10mm. I used a dremel to...

The engine swap is mostly plug and play. There are a few differences between the two engines. The first one is the engine mount on the drivers side. Due to the location pin on the SD mount. In my basic pic the SD bolts to B & D. The TD mount bolts to A & C. The next difference was the...

I am working on a write up.

After more than a month the TD engine is finally running. Had to make a custom wiring harness. Just have a few more things to do and its back on the road.

I was very pissed off this morning when i discovered the head was damaged. The prick who sold me the ute supplied that motor saying it would bolt straight in & never told me it was broken.

One of the bolts for the SD mount goes in the red circle in the second photo.

I have removed the SD25 & fitted the TD27 into the navara. Found the engine mount on the drivers side is different for SD to the TD. The other one is fine to use. The next major thing is the electrics. The wiring harness has to be modified.

After several weeks of negotiations with Dion that involved hundreds of emails, many phone calls & lots of coffee. I picked up the motor, gearbox & other parts today.

Hi all I have a 5Kva generator with a Honda G400 engine & its very loud. Does anyone know if i can get/ modify an exhaust to lessen the noise level? Thanks
