kimer6 - keep us posted, ok? Pictures, no matter how awful would be nice. It's always good to have a few people checking out your progress and giving suggestions and asking questions. I had always thought the Kubota line would be a good choice to stick in a Metro. A mechanical diesel would be great - not too much in the way of electronics to worry about. I live out in the country with no emissions requirements, so I could probably get away with it - maybe some future time when the JDM gives out.

I agree with MetroMPG. You should start a new thread with your play by play. I would read this with interest. Good luck on your build!

PS Say hey to my dad. He's spending his retirement days in the po-po (Carson City).
