Any relevant info out there? I see some interesting Nissan engines.. but I can't find any four-bangers.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_TD_engine

some models of Nissan's TD series have 4 cyl

They have a straight 6 under the RD and TD series.. but its too much power.

Look in the "complete engines" section of eBay, lots of JDM diesels and front clips.

as much as i hate Toyota... the 1-N and 1-NT are looking really nice

So far the only Co. selling JDM diesels on sheeshBay is Soshin, they have a bunch of vids on doucheTube.

^^ ..and they fit in a @#$^ Tercel!

I-DTEC is coming to the U.S.A. in an Acura

The Nissan TD engines are suited to a 4wd or light truck, they're not passenger car engines.
A very tough engine with long stroke and indirect injection. Close to bullet-proof but not that good on fuel.

Other nissan 4 and 6 cyl engines.
LD28 - 2.8L 6 cyl indirect injection diesel.
LD20 - 4 cyl version of the above.
CD20 and CD20T - later versions of the LD20, T is turbocharged.
RD28T - later version of the LD28
YD22 - 2.2L 4 cyl direct injection diesel, range from a 77hp non turbo with distributor pump to a commonrail turbo intercooled with about 180hp.
YD25 - bigger capacity version of the YD22, again ranges from non-turbo distributor pump to commonrail turbo intercooled.
ZD30 - 3L engine which replaced the TD27T and TD42, has a reputation for blowing up, caused most likely by sensor malfunction. Reports say they go really well before they blow. Replaced by the YD25.

Lots more too.

Another Nissan diesel engine:

A 1996 RD28

Despite the lack of turbo, thats pretty darn cool. Do you have any installation pictures? What transmission do you use?
