Subic LC80s usually has 1HDT engine, thats a 4.2ltr 6 cyclinder diesel, runs on an average of 8kms/liter. very torquey.

its hard to generalize if subic LCs are good or not. tiyempuhan din and dapat may kasama kang marunong sa LC. after buying, expect to spend more money/time for possible repairs. don't expect it to be like a brandnew.

are you from pampanga? i am.

LC80 madaming engine. Local engine ng LC80 was a 4.2 inline six (tama ba mga gurus?) which made around 150 bhp.

Land Cruiser and budget conscious? Parang oxymoron iyan. You are buying a genuinely capable off-road vehicle which is now considered legendary so don't expect it to be cheap.

Subics are OK if you know how to fix them (hindi yung 'I have a trusted mechanic na magaling mag-ayos').

Thank you po sa inyo. So ok pala ang fuel consumption ng land cruiser kahit malaki ang makina nito. Tama ba yon?

local lc80s are equipped with 1 hd t diesel engines 4200 liter 6 cylinders in line with a 165hp and 365 torque fuel consumption 6 to 7 km per liter. market price is still up to a million to 1.5mil depending on the condition. ride is very solid and stable.

wow! Thats a planet pulling 365 torque figure!!!! I never imagined it to be like that. I got a chance to drive my old man's lc80. He got it 1.7M 1997 vx local version just last year. Ride is bumpy but engine is tourquey-licious!!! No problem overtaking cars. Hitting the hiways is easy. Ride height is tremendous! I feel like I could run over cars. I took a pic one time... in front of me was a vios. I could hardly see him. The engine is very quiet from the inside - more quiet than the d-max. I love the engine on this bad boy it has a very low deep growl. It feels like a tank - did I mention that I feel like I could run over any car on the road? Oh, it has a HUGE gas tank. I had to return it on a full tank, cost me 2000+

thanks fro your replys.

sir,
kasya 285x75x16. correct me if i'm wrong. stock mags niyan 16x6.5. better change the mags too. pang LC80 mags kasya din.
siguro hanggang 305x70x16 kasya. malaki naman ang wheel well ng LC70.

pajero ko naka 285x75x16 bridgestone mud terrain tires. fits perfectly on stock fieldmaster mags.

A new Toyota Land Cruiser 70 with a 4.5L V8 turbo diesel was just announced for the Australian market. It will go on sale at the end of March.

Anyone here willing to bet that the new Tundra, Sequoia, (our) Land Cruiser, and the Lexus siblings won't also see this engine shortly? I say it will happen about the same time that Ford and Dodge introduce their all-new 1/2-ton diesels.
