IFS SR5 hilux questions

Post by edman247 »

hi all :P

Im looking at buying an 04 model SR5 Hilux, turbo diesel.

Ive been told by a few people that the 1KZ-TE engine is horrible for fuel consumption, is this true as ive been having mixed responses from people

However another person told me that the of the 01-04 SR5 luxs were fitted with the 1KD-FTV which is a far better engine???

I didnt think this was the case but im still doing alot of research and any help woyuld be greatly appreciated :D

thanks!

1KD only came out in the current generation of hiluxs locally ....in europe they had them in the previous shape in 2.5 litre configuration but not here.

1KZ is still a good engine......depends how you drive it and how much weight is on your vehicle.
