1988 Suzuki Samurai Vw 1.6 Turbo Diesel, complete rebuild was done approx: 6000 miles ago. Rebuild included: Loaded Cylinder head, Pistons, Rings, all bearings, oil pump, water pump and timing belt. Worked completed by a diesel shop in North Carolina. I have all receipts totaling $4600.00.This is not a turbo conversion, this engine came from a factory turbo VW JettaRebuilt injection pump100 amp GM alternator upgradeNew glow plugsNew fuel filter and fuel line3inch exhaustPower steeringSpring over axle lift33x12.50x15 Super Swamper Trxus Mt tires, 3/4 treadAcme adapters kit including engine mounts, flywheel, adaptor plate, clutch adaptor. All to mate up the vw engine to the suzuki transmission.HID headlights30 inch dual row LED lightbar mounted to windshield frame Custom built rear bumper with receiver and shacklesAll rear lights are LEDWinch mounted to front bumperCD player Over 12k invested in this truck, I have a pile of receipts to prove it,I have done a lot of mechanical work on this Samurai but I did not do the diesel swap, I purchased it out of North Carolina from a gentleman that didn't spare any expense. Everything works. The bad: Paint is in ok shape , but could really use a paint job. Looks great from a distanceHas a minor oil leak at the line on the wastegate, not major at all. I have to put less than 1/2 a qt of oil in it ever 4 weeks or so.The wastegate portion cannot be replaced seperately, it will require replacement of the turbo (approx $350.00) if you want to repair it. It does not affect the driveability at all. Overall this Samurai is one awesome machine. I currently daily drive it round trip of about 50 miles a day. It is very dependable and can cruise highway speeds easily. If you have owned a Samurai in the past you know that is something to be said.The body and frame are RUST FREE! Which is very hard to come by in one of the vehicles. This would make a really cool beach vehicle , hunting truck, farm truck or just a cool ride to daily drive. I have it for sale locally and will end the auction if it sells. I have represented this vehicle to the best of my ability, if you have any questions I can be contacted at (540) 447-0949 .
