N70 Toyota Hilux - 270HP 1KD - THE RUNDOWN

We take you through the process from a standard 1kd hilux to our STAGE 3 270hp power package!

[@negueba235689]

Inn my country we run Hilux on 37'' tiers, but the diff have new rations to not loos power. We also mostly use automatic. What are the price tag on a 250-270 stage ??

[@hildekaeka6064]

How many liters per 100km with this set-up under normal driving conditions?

[@carsella11]

Do you recommend changing pistons?

[@steviebiiz]

Hey man, is this package available in NZ?

Hey guys. I have a 2013 Prado 3.0l 150 series that makes 148kw and 571nm tuned (everything is stock and auto box) but I'm chasing more. How much is this package or similar?

[@user-vh3be8di7z]

Sick lads. Big up from uk, you guys know what your talking about. Looking to get a 3.0 d4d hilux soon, is prefacelift or facelift (2011-) better?

[@lildawi]

I’m no professional but I’ve heard facelift 11+ has better turbo

[@flatoot]

The injectors are different also. I suspect the face-lift hilux has the +30 injectors standard, but I can't confirm that. What I do know is, if you fit a steinbauer chip (increases injector duration) for a pre face-lift hilux onto a face-lift hilux. It over fuels like mad even on the lowest setting. Which is why I think they're bigger injectors

[@daniel-ll5zr]

On a serious note have you had much success with tuning the 3.0L GU Patrols zd30 di. Do you do similar packages for them. 👌🏾

[@TheCuttz1984]

Whats this tune like with the std auto?

[@thomastaylor408]

the a340 auto box in in hilux are pretty bulit proof. Just need to upgrade the valve body and if you start pushing really big power the torque converter.

[@inspiron528]

Hello Sir, I have a question. On a usual basis, let's say the engine will last you 500,000km. With all these mods and putting more strain on the engine, it will definitely last less right? Thank you for clarifying

[@adventurecorp]

You can't put a time limit on an engine like that. If you don't take care of an engine you can destroy it in less than 50000kms. If you take care of it it can last for a million or more. Sure, these modifications may stress components, but there's lots of individual upgrades to address them as they surface

[@inspiron528]

@@adventurecorp sure sure. Thank you so much for your reply. I put the 500k as an example (just for figures)

[@inspiron528]

I also wanted to ask something else. I see you have used a secondary ECU. What sync or modification do you have to bring to have 2 ECUs? Thanks

[@adventurecorp]

@inspiron528 the 2nd exu is just for tuning and power levels. It is wired inline with the factory ecu to intercept and change the signals to provide more tunability, but to also keep the factory electronics from having a meltdown

[@inspiron528]

Thanks so much for your replies. Appreciate it. Keep up the good work.

[@Outta_Tyme]

Or you could just 1uzfe swap

[@scottbrown946]

Got an update on how this is going now? What's broken?

[@adventurecorp]

Nothings broken, it did develop an injector line leak, but was easily repaired with a set of new lines.

[@scottbrown946]

@@adventurecorp thanks for that. Just curious as to what change in longevity could be expected? Double the power, half the life?

[@adventurecorp]

@@scottbrown946 not really, the 1kd engine is sa very good engine that gets a bad wrap for having injector issues with the standard injectors. We changed all of them so provided it is serviced regularly it shouldn't have a problem.

[@FuckTheSystem1987]

Whats a kit like this set you back? I know running it at 270 all day, every day probably requires an upgraded clutch but would the box hold up?

How easy is a 1kd swap into a fj40 ?

[@kealahau6727]

I would use 6 speed gearbow and adapt the late LC transfer case...

[@oscarkelly2462]

Not

[@AP-ow5vu]

Waste of time, if you're gonna do an engine swap you may aswell put in an engine that's good not a 1kd.

[@flatoot]

It's as easy or difficult as you make it. The easiest but not the cheapest way would be fit the engine and gearbox. Fit a 1kz 12mm manual injector pump, fit a waste gate turbo and 1hz injectors. With that setup you've got no ecu or wiring loom to worry about. Which would suit any old simple vehicle much better than trying to find space for all the electrics

[@gerrylewis553]

Why not upgrade the clutch for 350 hp ? Capacity

[@adventurecorp]

Because the gearbox will explode well before then.

[@heartobefelt]

@@adventurecorp Does that also apply if you have a beefed up gearbox with heavy bearing plate in the center and HD syncros ?

Good luck to the owner with his 1kd-ftv engine more bang for ya buck mmmmm in the short term . It's only a 3 litre 4 cylinder turbo engine not designed for that power from Japan so that's my 2 cents worth .

Thanks for the input. 3 years on and 10s of thousands of kms later and it's still running perfect.

​@@adventurecorp when you say about 225hp is the daily tune, do you mean 225 on 33's or 225 on standard size tyres?

How much does something like this cost

[@duke4608]

$1200-$1800

@@duke4608 the tune will cost that. The rest of the components he mentioned will each cost around another thousand

[@chrisszollos1543]

All together youre looking at about $10k, give or take a bit

[@finnsk3]

Off the top of my head; turbo $3500, injectors with nozels $3500, ecushop piggyback and tune $2500, airbox $850, intercooler kit $1500, exhaust $1200, NPC 1300nm clutch $2000 then maybe another $1000 or more for labour. My guess is their package is around 15 grand. I have spent about $30,000 on my Hilux that makes 275whp but it’s had a fair bit more work.
