I registered on two Polish Toyota forums and asked for info on the 1ND-TV engine and any advice on putting it in a Tercel. Now we wait...

BTW How much did you say that engine is going for? I looked at local auctions and there are relatively new (2-4 years old) 1.4 D4D engines from a Yaris or Corolla going for around US$1000. I'm sure you could find them even cheaper in Germany or France (that's where most of the used car parts sold here are from).

I'm starting to daydream about putting a turbodiesel into an old (=light) car, adding a 6 speed tranny and aeromodding it 'til its own factory won't recognize it. Wake me up when I start to drool...
