Getting ready to TDI swap a 3rd gen 4Runner. This series has been priceless .
glad to help!!!
“ just wiring “ yea ok , this frickin kid is smart and motivated
U do such a good job running everything and making it look good like it was factory nice work
HECK YEAH!! I cant get enough of these.
Love the wiring, tedious and satisfying all ad the same time.
Austin gets the gold at the fabrication Olympics !
These videos are helpful, thank you. Keep up the good work. 👍🏽
I'm starting to get an understanding of wiring, thanks for the education, really appreciate it
The terminals in your bench vise, small tip..... put a screwdriver between the jaw of the vice and the connector and then squeeze it. Then fill it with solder.
it was of great help, thanks man!
Nice! Looking awesome!
Excellent wiring! Wow 👍🏻😎🤠
sacred work, bravo to you 👍
I enjoy a lot wiring, it feels amazing once you get it done and it works lol
Electric fan w/shroud, T-stat control w/manual override.
You make it look easy!
Hell of a wiring Job🔥💯👌🏽 she’s going to be Nice 👍
This video was exciting and jt went by fast.
Fire it up!!!
Cant wait for the headlights.
Enjoy watching these videos keep it up. Hopping one day I’ll get time to do mine. One thing I’d recommend it’s a little better then the crimp and heat shrink. They make heat shrink with solder in the center. That melts with the heat to shrink it. Just a bit better of a connection is all. But enjoying the progress!!
Thanks! I’ve never had any issues with these crimps!
@@austinniemela the crimps you are using are completely fine but you might consider reaching out to some of the companies who makes the solder ones to see if they are interested in some sort of sponsorship, you do nice wiring work and they might see it as a good opportunity to show off their product
@@Tanner731 I have those solder crimp deals and I never liked them that much!
@@austinniemela yeah I prefer to just solder and heat shrink over it the old school way, for random stuff like that you should reach out to companies and see if theyll sponsor videos since your videos do well and you do nice work
It’s Toyota crack…lol
Mad Genius at work!!
Awesome work. Water drains from windshield right where you have that fuse holder. Shouldn’t matter, just FYI. Any grommets for wires or any drilled holes in that area can leak water in. Ask me how I know haha.
I looooove your videos...all the way in Kenya africa
Still waiting for a nice wheeling session 🙂 Let's see what these trucks can do!! Would make for some great content!!🤘🤘
I'm waiting for wheeling videos too, you can check out some of mine while we wait ha ha
Mechanical fan for sure
Go electric for the fan you can do like I did on my old 4runner where I installed a electric fan with a switch that let me have it in 3 positions on off and auto. Obviously left in in auto most of the time but if I was sitting alot or slow crawling just have it run full time and shut it off if going thru high watter.
Ditch the clutch fan, run a nice electric fan that’s made for your trucks radiator. The shroud should come with a fan kit so all you need to do is install it and wire it up.
Love your videos. You have talent and skills!
Excellent I would like to have the opportunity to work in your workshop
Hello Austin love the work you have done and have gone down the same rabbit hole, I am curious if you had to do anything special to integrate the Tacoma cages, or did you get something aftermarket?
what tdi engine do you recomend in swapping into a tacoma?
Would that thing be strong enough to put in a Chevy van? What if you gear it down with a transfer case?
👏👏👏👏
When are we going to see a collab with you and your brothers doing something sick??
👍
Such a gold mine of information, thanks! Are you selling any merch that gives you a better cut?
just send him a couple hundred . that is a good cut !
@@stevewhyte8476 I would rather send money indeed. Patreon would be a good way to do it.
Electric fans would be my choice (Dual Fans). Another great video! Love the electrical stuff!
Plz can you show electrical Shema of système injection
Viscous fan is far superior to the electric fan.
I am changing all my electric fans to viscous.
Less strain on electric system.
Viscous is a lot more reliable and a much longer service life.
Viscous moves a lot more air when needed.
With my 1uz-fe, I went for electric but in the dunes it falls flat on its face.
While the others are enjoying themselves, I have to give it some time to cool regularly.
Since I went back to viscous, no more hot running issues at all and the power loss is so minimal, I di not notice it. I would rather sacrifice a little bit of fuel consumption and HP than to be stranded or to pull a blown motor.
Waiting on parts to convert my isf2.8 to viscous.
With the hot temps here the upgraded electric fan has a hard time keeping up.
Some viscous fans are serviceable.
You can add or remove the silicon oil, put thicker or thinner to change the characteristics of the fan.
How soon it locks up and how aggressive it locks.
Great video by the way.
Dumb question and you might have covered this in another video but when you swap from gas to a diesel do you have to convert fuel tank and pump along with ecm& Tcm?
you aren't going to notice the couple horsepower you lose on the mechanical fan. add in an e fan that comes on when the ac is on and by thermostat when it reaches a certain temp. might be easier to put one large e fan infront of the ac condenser
I replace engine in my passat b5 engine tdi pd but wont start the injector cable in back does not or need and injector need to be changed injectors are the donor car
Dumb question but you’re swapping from gas to diesel do you also have to swap out fuel lines/tank/pump? What about ECM/TCM?
Check out the earlier videos of this build.
I have flex a lite fans on my 1UZ cressida and I daily drive it every summer. I haven't had a single problem in the years since I got them and you can even program them to come on at a specified temp. I'd highly recommend them.
Do these engines have enough power for a full size truck conversion?
I'm doing a 4 Door Dakota on 1 ton axles, but the bigger the vehicle the harder its going to be to stay cool. At slower speeds TDIs can move anything, its over 65 MPH that issues come in.
Ditch the fan. You really only need a fan for the AC. I have over 100k miles on my ALH swap and use the stock Dakota AC electric fan only. I have a adjustable temp probe reading the radiator outlet temp wired in parallel with the stock fan relay. It never kicks on unless Im coming off the hwy and its 95F+ ambient and I get stuck at a red light on the off ramp. Even then it kicks on for 20 seconds?
Running mechanical fan should not use any power worth noting,and building a fan shroud with electric fan ,puller or pusher would make sense,just to appease your other worries.😎😎😎👍👍👍
So far you did an awesome job on the TDI swap, but watching today's episode, it hurts my eyes to see you crimping cable terminals in the vise!!!! I know it is done a lot, but it's really bad practice! By pushing the terminal to an oval, you create voids between the terminal and the cable, which results in a bad connection over time. A decent crimping tool isn't expensive any more and really contributes to a quality job. About the cooling, I would also keep the visco fan and add a electric fan to the side as you planned. Making a decend schroud is very inportant. Maybe look for a bigger visco fan? This looks rather small...
Looking good! I think you should use an electric fan. They cool better and will be a lot less work to set up in the long run. I used a Crown Vic fan in the Toyota shroud on mine.
👍🏽👍🏽
Butt connectors instead of solder? They work but….. anyway, you do awesome work so it’s probably fine. 👍🏻
I good crimp actually has a better connection than a soldered connection. Although those weren’t the best crimps😂
Solder can crack and fail. I’ve never had issues with these crimps! What’s a better one Ivan?
@@austinniemela I like to use a crimper with a die set, since the wire cutter style sometimes slips on me, then again I’ve only used the oreillys specials. Also it’s pretty hard to “overcrimp” a wire with them
Your good at figuring out wiring and mechanics but are you ever going to wheel any of these or they pavement pounders or just to sale 🤔
I'm waiting for them too, you can check out some of mine while we wait ha ha
engine name
Run the mechanic fan!! Will hardly loose any power this isn't a race truck
I am a big fan (pun intended) of extracting all available H/P that I can, so I would go with electric fans.
Personally I would go with electric fans so you can tuck them in closer and get more room, just for ease of maintenance.
i would suggest running an electric fan.the motor will run cooler and have more horsepower.
Large electric fan with custom shaped aluminium shroud making sure there are no gaps, the fan needs to suck all the air through the radiator and air charge cooler.
Hi Do you interested in adding some high quality lighting upgrade for your car?We're the pro auto lighting manufacturer for nearly 20yrs history and we're looking for sponsorship!
Looking forward to hearing from you:)
She so close to being finished
Did I just watch you use a vice to crimp a termination and then proceed to drill out the ring, jesus fucking christ
Hell no, do not do the mechanical fan!
Go electric fan
Electric. Always.
