Bobbeh Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 You dont own a Supra to worry about the MPG! But yeah, the BMW diesels are very quick, and economical, they can also be tuned/re-mapped to be even more powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Dublin Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Great engine. My "weekday" car is a 320cd, 40 odd mpg while driving the stones out of it ain't bad! makes you appreciate the Supra all the more when you get back into it tho... diesel engine transplant would run the character of the Supe I think, just my 2p.

mattanna Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 do it, more torque, and more reliable, transplant the gearbox too though.Engine Mountings may be an issue though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
