Ive been doing a lot of research on the diesel swap options for our trucks and found that the best solution would be to import a front clip off a diesel pickup from japan...

stumbled upon this 1996 turbo diesel Toyota previa a month ago and it was reposted again today: http://honolulu.craigslist.org/kau/cto/1129909209.html

does anyone know if this is the same engine used by the pickups and that will bolt up to my trans because I want to retain my manual transmission

My truck is a 93 single cab 3vz-e

also here's a link to a guy who does conversions if you're interested: http://www.dieseltoyz.com/Home.html

I don't know, but I would like to know too. That would be an awesome swap! Let me know how it goes for you if you get it !!!

This looks like a good site on the topic:

And beware of this motor, the 3VZE of Toyota diesels:
