[@Anthxoy]

Old girl lookin so nice can't wait to see the finished product

[@mrjibrox]

Nothing is off the shelf with this Guy…..Everything is custom Made ….Its what makes his content the best Around

[@fourc8642]

Looking good. Living vicariously through your projects right now keep up the good work

[@overlandbulgaria4x46]

Love it as usual. BTW I will be following in your footsteps, Austin. And I will try to get in touch with you somehow for questions regarding diesel swaps. Thank you for all the hard work you do. You are truly an inspirational person!

[@packingbone1953]

Good lord brother your skills are impressive.

[@Jmonzy1]

Small wins on the parts/hose that fit and can be reused. Another GREAT video mate. Keep it up.

[@awhipps]

I’m really enjoying this build! You’re making great progress and I can’t wait to see the next thing you decide you might as well do while it’s apart.

[@MrQdawgs]

Such a smooth fabrication

[@gsamgale5185]

Keep it up can't wait to see it running

[@adamdubeau8038]

With all the room in front of the engine, you could bend a sheet metal "standoff" from the header panel for the radiator, to give more room for the A/C to mount. I guess it comes down to what you'll use for an electric fan.

Hey mate, can you do an in-depth episode on how to install diff breathers? There is no good vids for Hilux on KZbin and I know you would do a great job. Would like to see it on Rear diff, gear box, transfer case & front diff. Plus they would also be a great idea for all your builds anyways Cheers mate

[@Jesus-hx5vg]

Love these videos! Never clicked so fast

[@jimmadonna1436]

That was very enjoyable in fact that was my BD gift. Nice work on that SS line. Love those motor mounts. Stout looking. I have to work on Chevy Aveo. I want to beat on the non JDM junk with a sledge hammer!

[@adamthatguy454]

Digging the music variety lately 👌

[@austinniemela]

Awesome!! Thanks for the feedback

[@i_run_far1132]

Tons of progress!

[@gsftom]

U are becoming a pro at engine swaps!

[@garymallard4699]

Looks like you can bend your metal fuel line enough ( on fender ) to get that hose fitting?? ( at 13:51 if u already figured that out?? )

[@Jesus-hx5vg]

Great video as always 👍

[@TTallon1]

im surprised at how well the intercooler decided to fit. looks like all is going smoothly!

[@austinniemela]

Yeah fits pretty good!

[@gregh7457]

kudo's to you for keeping the AC system

[@pigtrapper1329]

Love it man!!!! You are extremely talented

[@austinniemela]

Thank you so much 😀

[@darciwalter3919]

Nice work today😎👍🏻🤠☀️

[@PNWUpperLeft]

Have you ever thought about supercharging the green truck

[@KN-bw6gu]

I am so old.....I sat in a truck just like this in the showroom. I'm 6 3 and I barely fit lol

[@2014dalton]

I absolutely love your builds man. Is that the same banjo fitting I need for my 02 Alh power steering pump?

[@austinniemela]

Thanks! Yes that should be the same!

[@bigmackstruckstop9213]

Tocama truck is looking good

[@MussaKZN]

Run into town to get some Nordlock washers LOL, while your in town grab a flux Capacitor as well !!

[@Paulo-it5gq]

Been loving this build , looking really good , always doing a great job , you gonna love that engine , I love our dear alh/asv but if I ever swap mine will be one of those , can u tell me if we can use the same turbo from the alh ? The turbo you have on the jetta and on the truck are plug and play on the PD ? The videos are very well filmed that's probably hard to film while working .

[@austinniemela]

Yeah! They all have the same bolt pattern

[@Paulo-it5gq]

@@austinniemela I wasn't 100% sure it's good to know thank you

[@dinho890i]

My favorite Niemela. Cheers from Mozambique🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿

[@slugmtb]

Was this all Toyota on the AC side? You videos have been a huge help. Swapping a 95 4Runner currently.

[@austinniemela]

Yes all toyota except the compressor!

Good video 🔥💯👌🏽

[@Projectblackkjack]

i bought the same intercooler from my tdi jeep swap!

[@austinniemela]

Sweet seems like a decent cooler!

[@Projectblackkjack]

@@austinniemela jon from bleepinjeep used it also and likes it

[@diyjeff1838]

We need some rain!!

[@austinniemela]

Yes we do!

[@jonbayer3436]

Love the claw hammer, don't worry about the haters

[@austinniemela]

😂😂

[@memphosfinest]

What mig welder do you have? Hobart 140 or 210? Work looks great!

[@austinniemela]

Thanks! It’s a 210

[@bilbobaggins4905]

what intercooler is that? Im looking to use a similar one in my swap

[@rampagedingo]

People hate on your claw hammer? Wow, that's interesting...hahaha

[@javier4764]

👏👏👏👏

[@ReindeerBork]

I don’t own a TDI or a Tacoma but I enjoy your channel, I basically said, “Fuck you!” Over and over again out of jealousy when you started showing how nicely your fuel lines and heater core line went together haha.

[@randyabogadie9509]

Are you going to consider selling these tacoma TDI swaps? Or be hired to do so for someone's tacoma?

[@thomasmurphy5906]

Thanks for showing us the mistakes you make, the only way to do it, is to do it and once in while redo it

[@stevewhyte8476]

More claw hammer videos !!

[@austinniemela]

Yes!!!! 🤙

[@kflo1219]

Think I’d invest in some ac…lol

[@tommcl8548]

👍👊

[@ChrisJohnson-yv1zh]

If Toyota would have offered this type of setup from the factory, they would dominate the small truck market by huge amounts. Our own regulations are killing the industry.

[@bobthebuilder6315]

Toyota does in fact offer a turbo diesel, its called a hilux and it's available all over the world except the US. Thanks EPA, not...

[@garymallard4699]
