3. ECU CAN be hard, but if you get the right donor it doesn't have to be. The issue is the ignition, you need the matching ign barrel for the ecu security on some models. For how cheap you can get an engine, an aftermartek ecu is feasable. Trust me the toyo ecu security is crackable as well.
4. They are cheap and reliable. less than a grand for a replacement motor. Easier than rebuilding.
5. 1UZ 4.0lt alloy block (1st gen) 10:1 compression, 191 kW (256 hp), torque 353 N·m (260 ft·lbf)
2UZ 4.7lt cast iron block(2nd gen) 202 kW (271 hp) at 4800 rpm with 427 N·m (315 ft·lbf) torque at 3400 rpm (vvti model).
JDM versions produce 173 kW (232 hp) at 4800 rpm and 422 N·m (311 ft·lbf) at 3600 rpm.
Australian models produce 170 kW (230 hp) at 4800 rpm and 410 N·m (300 ft·lbf) at 3600 rpm.
3UZ 4.3lt (3rd gen Iron block) Output is 216 to 224 kW (290 to 300 hp) at 5600 rpm with 441 N·m (325 ft·lbf) of torque at 3400 rpm.
All have 6bolt mains and are as strong as an ox. Personally taken a 1uz to 11600rpm, and 550hp. And a 2uz to 14000 and 880hp.
This something I've been toying with for a comp truck and my own D2 for some time. 2uz with vvti and 200ser cruiser box/tfr so it bolts straight up.

There was a guy who lived on the Northern Beaches of Sydney who fitted one to a RRC several years ago.
He was on this forum but I haven't heard anything for years.

Fully engineered and signed off by the RTA in NSW. The only "modified" item on the engineers report was the chassis everything else is listed as replaced.
The Autronic SM4 ECU was wired by Quickfit in Hornsby and has since been modified by me to make it work how I wanted.
Hijack over."
cheers, DL
Iive scoured the net on the topic of P38 engine swaps, there is lots of talk about what would be good etc but im yet to see any one who has actually done it. (apart from small Diesel, that is a common swap in the UK)
The LS3 Chev 6.2l is a good option, standard it has 430BHP, few hundred more gets the 480BHP version, new crate LS3s are around $7k.
Anther choice is to go V8 turbo Diesel, 6.6l Duramx or similar, 300BHP 11l/100km standard, has been done to a few late model GU Patrols, the out come was awesome.
The Becm is goign to be a problem, getting the computers to mate will be difficult but doable, then the drive-line will need to be strengthened, gearbox and diffs would need to be replaced, transfer modified/replaced, CVs and axles and brakes.
Im not trying to put you off, i would absolutely love to see it done and i believe it is possible, just expensive, i would say $20-25 000 all up if you do lots of work your self.
Thats a good price for a conversion. The last 4.7 toyo I did cost 30K just to build.
Many great opportunities out there obvious. some costly, some extremely costly.
Look, I like the 4.6L motor i think it sounds great and would have enough power.
I just want a reliable Rangie, tis breakin me heart! Dont really mind about fuel consumption, I have another car to drive to work.
Has anyone rebuilt one with the top hat liner fix? I would buy a crate engine and put that in, except they all from U.K. Hows the overall cost and end product, has somebody done it? Surely. speak up please, especially if you're in melbourne eastern suburbs!
When I was looking (nneding) to replace mine looked at the top hat option. TR Spares (Syd) was around $3500- for a short 4.6 hatted.

Hi Guys,
Something I have learn't from this forum is supposedly "deal breaker" issues seem to be easy fixes when it comes down to it, especially when it comes to reliability SNAFU's concerning the green oval as most can be circumvented with a bit of time, asking questions and elbow grease.
Personally, if you're super keen on a P38, work (the 4.6) and address (electrical) the current and well documented issues and end up with an awesome bus "for all occasions".
Wanna a conversion? Would probably suggest a chev LS series if you're after a petrol V8. Can't comment on this directly sorry as I don't have one or have driven this particular setup but having driven both P38 and LS in a Patrol can surmise that it would be an awesome marriage.
FWIW, the dunnydore guys who have been flat out with this conversion for a few years now spruke changing the diff ratio upwards as the 1UZ-FE has poor down low pep against aussie and USA V8's.
