Hi guys
I have just brought a landy 90 with a mazda lt3.5tdi engine fitted? does anyone know anything about these engines? im heard there beasts? its a recent fully rebuilt engine runs nice but not has quick has my 300tdi though? any info on this engine would be great like bhp ect it dont seem great on the mpg but i wasnt suprised at that it runs a lot better than my 300tdi generally idles better smoother revvin etc it might just need some light tweeking to the pump etc? im not complaining lol but im not really up on the jap stuff..

good engines, buckets of torque. its gonna be quieter and smoother then a 300 cos its not british!
they were popular in the 90's i think, getting a bit scarce now but never heard of any major probs with them.
google would be your best bet for power figures i think.

cheers tig the last owner had all the work done cost a fortune didnt you know british is the way forward lol erm........ done some searches on google some say 152bhp some say 100bhp its a subject i cant find much info on maybe someone on here has one fitted....

152 sounds about right for a 3.5. torque should be 250 plus i would have thought so watch yer shafts and stuff in low box!
British vehicles for simplicity but gotta be german engines for power and build quality!
(wait for the comments!!)

DIdn't a bloke on here have that one for sale about 6 months ago, anyone else remember?

yeah there was, but theres only a link to an ebay listing, which has expired.

Was a red 90 with a 3.5Litre Madza Diesel in it

A mate of mine had one in a RR a few years ago. It wasn't fast but it pulled like hell. Really torquey.
