    Seeking information Toyota 1VD into RRS 2008

    Hi Everyone
    Thank you for allowing me to join. I have a very exciting project on my Hoist at the moment that i am seeking some advice/information to complete this conversion.

    Ok so i have purchased [ at the right price] a 2008 RRS TDV6 that had snapped the crankshaft. I currently have a 3 Toyota 1VDFTE engines as well.
    so my question is can anyone help with Engine [2/7 td ] to car loom plug pinouts.
    Also what the canbus codes for the info the engine.

    Thank you in advance Neil Brooker

    Why the hell would you fit a Toyota boat anchor when a tdv8 will bolt right in, you'll never get to electrics working properly.

    Hopefully the 79 loom is straight forward. Which gearbox and transfer? Actually I think there are 1VD to 8HP adaptors.

    8Speed, but it probably isn't to a LandRover 8HP, probably BMW or something like that.

    Same engine as the twin turbo,although there were changes over the years.Maybe source the additional parts,as the twin turbo is a better package.
    Very common engine,so shouldn't be two difficult.

    They are definitely no boat anchor,generally ultra reliable,if serviced correctly like anything mechanical.

    One thing though,probably the least of your issues with the change over,they don't like any revs less than 1500RPM,particularly in higher gears.
    The TDV6 may run lower revs at highway speeds.
