Hi Members.
Dont hate me or think of me as an idiot but I was just wondering is it possible to replace my current 5vz engine with 1GD in my 120 series toyota prado 2005 model LWB.
My 5vz has clocked around 200,000kms and some 5vz experts telling my horrible stories of injectors leak and coils failure in this petrol engine as common faults.
So I am just wondering since the 5vz is in great condition at the moment why dont I replace it with 1GR or 1KD or 1GD.
The research I have done so far is for 1GR i need to change the geat as well but for 1KD I only need to replace engine and same gesr assembly will fit.
1GD being a more powerful and new technology is attracting me more than 1GR.
I have modified my 120 series prado with some after market suspension, diff lockers, and going for some extended fenders and 285/75/16 tyre size also. So no plans to sell it, rather I see it as a keep.
Need your expert opinion/suggestions
Thanks
