    I have a RRC with TDI 3.5L nissan truck engine, I have also spent loads of time driving the isuzu TD and non T's I find the 300tdi and td5's thrashy to drive in comparison and annoying at highway speeds (in manual). Any engine can be made to go fast, I would put money on some 1.5L turbo's vs stock new v8's but thats not the point, you also need the engine to last a long time. These 4 cyl truck engines give good power and also do 800 to 1m km before a rebuild. Mine is also good on fuel so they are actually a good deal, the 300tdi is also good but my money would be on my car or a 3.9isuzu over a 300tdi in a race.

    Myth be dambed! My rangie is off the road at the moment, but if you will wait till it is going again, I say to you put your money where your mouth is - my isuzu rangie vs your 300Tdi winner takes all.

    And I will take a significant handicap!

    Plus I am close to Cessnock.

    Edit: the rangie is off the road for mods to make it into a camper. So it will have all my gear in it, so worth considerably more than your 300tdi.

    Well your not prepared to back up all your brash talk as winner take all.

    So I will still put up my rangie if you agree to pay $5000.00 to a charity of my choice (Camp Quality). $5k would not even come close to getting you even the suspension on my rangie.

    If you can't come up with $5k, just how much will you back up you big mouth with?

    So he's got nothing to worry about then

    Plus as I have been told I cannot drive for ****

    Honestly though I don't think a single drag race can cut it to determine what engine is best perhaps a staged event taking all into consideration, cost of servicing, fuel consumption, drivability over various terrain, towing ability, outright speed, acceleration, engine braking etc......

    I'll be in for sure, if we wait till Bush65's rangie is finished, it'll be even more entertaining. If we're not racing for pinks whats the prize?

    It's getting to be like a gunfight at "The OK Coral" I reckon even my 4BE1motor would out pull his tdi up a steep block towing a toyota

    So where's the challenge taking place ?? I think it should be nearer Brisbane on neutral ground and make it a proper event.

    I do like the lolly pops. How did you know?

    You sound like a real man. However you have no knowledge about me and my life. I travelled most of the world, incl stint in Israel in a Kibbutz and Israeli army, tracking Egypt and South Africa. Servos there also have lollypops so you got that bit right.

    Lets not get our dicks out and start swinging them in the breeze.

    Lets also not take ourselves too seriously cause life is way too short for that.

    I know you love your Isuzu and so be it. Enjoy it and live happily ever after.
    I dislike them for some reason, bit like soy Latte's but that's just me.

    So pull your head in bud, its just an opinion and nothing personnal.
