The Nissan TD series is a series of diesel engines manufactured by Nissan. All TD-series engines are inline engines; most versions are four-cylinders aside from the six-cylinder TD42. They have cast iron blocks and crossflow heads; the combustion chamber design is a swirl-chamber design with indirect injection. [1] The valves are pushrod-actuated, and the engine has two valves per cylinder; [2] the camshaft is driven by a set of gears. [1] The engines are generally deemed durable. [1] [3] [4]
The TD23 has a bore and stroke of 89 mm × 92 mm (3.50 in × 3.62 in) and thus displaces 2,289 cc (139.7 in3). [5] Its compression ratio is 22.0:1. It is the least common of the TD series engines, and ended production around 1995. [5] [6]
This engine was installed in the 1987-1992 Nissan Pickup (D21); it was also used in the 1986-1988 E24 series Nissan Caravan. [6] It replaced the earlier SD23 engine in Nissan Atlas 1-ton trucks in 1986. [8]
The TD25's bore and stroke are 93 mm × 92 mm (3.66 in × 3.62 in), giving 2,494 cc (152.2 in3). Period reviewers referred to the unit as "thoroughly viceless" and "a bit bland". [3] This engine was also used by JASO, the Japanese Automotive Standards Organization, for their diesel oil Detergency Test procedure (M 336:1998) from 1998 until engine assemblies and parts became unavailable in 2009. [9] [10]
It is applied to the following vehicle(s):
It has been used in the 1990–present Nissan Cedric YPY31, the Nissan Navara D21 series, and the 1-ton Nissan Atlas F23 series from 1995 to 1999 (sold as the Cabstar in Europe and certain other export markets). It was also used in the Nissan Caravan/Urvan (E24). [3]
Bore and stroke are 96 mm × 92 mm (3.78 in × 3.62 in) giving 2,663 cc (162.5 in3). Maximum power of the naturally aspirated model is 85 PS JIS (63 kW; 84 hp) at 4,300 rpm. [12] A turbocharged version of the TD27 was introduced in 1988. [4]
This engine was also exported to the United Kingdom and fitted to LTI's Fairway series, coupled to manual or automatic transmissions also supplied by Nissan. [13] The low-stressed naturally aspirated engine has a strong reputation for reliability. [4] The General Secretary of Britain's Licensed Taxi Drivers' Association (LTDA) referred to the TD27 as "one of the greatest engines ever put in a cab." [14] It was chosen after extensive testing by engineering consultants Ricardo PLC. The company offset the cost of importing engines from Japan by Nissan agreeing to sell 200 Fairways in Japan every year under the "Big Ben" name. [2] The TD27 continued to be installed on the succeeding TX1 series. [14]
The TD27 was mainly fitted to a number of Nissan light duty commercial vehicles and was used as the most common diesel option in Nissan Homy, Caravan, and Urvan vans. Along with the TD23 and TD25, it was also fitted to the D21 series Datsun Truck (also known as Nissan Pickup, Navara, etcetera). The turbocharged versions were also fitted to the Nissan Caravan and its various rebadgings, to the Nissan/Datsun Pickup, the Nissan Terrano SUV (D21 as well as the succeeding R50), and to the Nissan Terrano II (R20; sold as the Mistral in Japan).
The power range of the regular turbocharged versions (TD27T; built from 1985 until 2007) range from 100–115 PS (74–85 kW; 99–113 bhp) depending on fitment; when fitted with an intercooler (TD27Ti) power increases to 125 PS (92 kW; 123 bhp). [15] The most powerful TD27ETi model, introduced in 1995 and built until 2001, is intercooled, and has an electronically controlled distributor-type fuel injection pump. The system was called "electronically controlled fuel injection" by Nissan at the time. [16]
The TD42 measures 4169 cc (254.4 in3); it's a square engine and the bore and stroke are 96 mm × 96 mm (3.78 in × 3.78 in). Its fuel-injection pump is mechanically controlled. Early models have a black cylinder head cover ("Blacktop"), while later models are silver ("Silvertop"). [1] Since 1988, Nissan Diesel Industrial Engines also manufactured this model for use in forklifts; the company building these (and the industrial versions of the TD25/TD27) changed name to Nissan Industrial Engine Manufacturing (NIEM) in 1995 and became Global Component Technologies (GCT) in 2015 - at which point the TD-series engines remained in production for forklift use. [17]
The naturally aspirated versions of the TD42 produce from 115 to 135 PS (85 to 99 kW; 113 to 133 bhp) depending on market, fitment, and measuring methods. It has been installed in the Nissan Civilian series (W40, W41) and the Nissan Safari/Patrol (Y60/61).
The TD42T is the turbocharged version of the aforementioned TD42. It was available from 1993. These engines have also been fitted with an intercooler (TD42Ti). In February 2003, this version received electronic control of injection timing; this increased the torque output to 360 N⋅m (37 kp⋅m; 266 lbf⋅ft), [1] equivalent to a BMEP of 1.09 MPa. The electronic control version was called the TD42ETi by Nissan. [18] Power outputs of the turbocharged models range from 145 to 160 PS (107 to 118 kW; 143 to 158 bhp) depending on fitment, model, and market.
The Nissan Navara is a nameplate used for Nissan pickup trucks with D21, D22, D40 and D23 model codes. The nameplate has been used in Australia, New Zealand, Central America, South America, Asia, Europe, and South Africa. In North, Central and South America and some selected markets, it is marketed as the Nissan Frontier or Nissan NP300.
The RB engine is an oversquare 2.0–3.0 L straight-6 four-stroke gasoline engine from Nissan, originally produced from 1985 to 2004. The RB followed the 1983 VG-series V6 engines to offer a full, modern range in both straight or V layouts.
The Nissan Sunny is an automobile built by the Japanese automaker Nissan from 1966 to 2004. In the early 1980s, the brand changed from Datsun to Nissan in line with other models by the company. Although production of the Sunny in Japan ended in 2004, the name remains in use in China and GCC countries for a rebadged version of the Nissan Almera.
The KA engines were a series of four-stroke inline-four gasoline piston engines manufactured by Nissan, which were offered in 2.0 and 2.4 L. The engines blocks were made of cast-iron, while the cylinder heads were made of aluminum.
The CA engine is a series of 1.6 to 2.0 L Inline-4 piston engines from Nissan. It is designed for a wide variety of smaller Nissan vehicles to replace the Z engine and some smaller, four-cylinder L series engines. The "CA" stands for Clean Air, due to the installation of Nissan emission reducing technology, called NAPS-X.
The Nissan Pulsar is a line of automobiles produced by the Japanese automaker Nissan from 1978 until 2000, when it was replaced by the Nissan Bluebird Sylphy in the Japanese market.
The Mitsubishi Sirius or 4G6/4D6 engine is the name of one of Mitsubishi Motors' four series of inline-four automobile engines, along with Astron, Orion, and Saturn.
The Austin Motor Company A-series is a British small straight-4 automobile engine. Launched in 1951 with the Austin A30, production lasted until 2000 in the Mini. It used a cast-iron block and cylinder head, and a steel crankshaft with three main bearings. The camshaft ran in the cylinder block, driven by a single-row chain for most applications, and with tappets sliding in the block, accessible through pressed steel side covers for most applications, and with overhead valves operated through rockers. The cylinder blocks are not interchangeable between versions intended for conventional end-on mounted gearboxes and the 'in-sump' transaxle used on British Motor Corporation/British Leyland front wheel drive models such as the Mini. The cylinder head for the overhead-valve version of the A-series engine was designed by Harry Weslake – a cylinder head specialist famed for his involvement in SS (Jaguar) engines and several Formula One-title winning engines. Although a "clean sheet" design, the A-series owed much to established Austin engine design practise, resembling in general design and overall appearance a scaled-down version of the 1200cc overhead-valve engine first seen in the Austin A40 Devon which would form the basis of the later B-series engine.
The Nissan L series of automobile engines was produced from 1966 through 1986 in both inline-four and inline-six configurations ranging from 1.3 L to 2.8 L. It is a two-valves per cylinder SOHC non-crossflow engine, with an iron block and an aluminium head. It was the engine of the Datsun 510, Datsun 240Z sports car, and the Nissan Maxima. These engines are known for their reliability, durability, and parts interchangeability.
The Nissan Z engine is a series of automobile and light truck four-cylinder engines that was engineered by Nissan Machinery, manufactured by the Nissan Motor Company from 1979 through August 1989. All Z engines had 4 cylinders, a total of 8 valves and a single overhead camshaft (SOHC). Displacements ranged from 1.6 L to 2.4 L.The Z series' engine blocks were nearly identical to those of the earlier L Series with the exception of the Z24. While the Z16 and Z18 engines had a deck height similar to the earlier L13/L14/L16/L18 variants, the Z24 had a taller deck height to accommodate a longer stroke. The most notable difference between the Z-series engine and its predecessor was the introduction of a new crossflow cylinder head which reduced emissions by moving the intake ports to the right side of the engine opposite the exhaust ports. This change allows the exhaust port velocity to more effectively scavenge the cylinder and reduce reversion pulses to enhance induction. This change also limits maximum valve lift/lobe lift profiles rendering the cylinder head and valve train configuration undesirable for high-performance uses. The Z series evolved into the NA and KA engines which, along with the smaller CA series, replaced the Z series.
The Nissan Cedric is a large automobile produced by Nissan since 1960. It was developed to provide upscale transportation, competing with the Prince Skyline and Gloria which were later merged into the Nissan family. In later years, the Nissan Skyline was positioned as a sports sedan/coupe, whereas the Nissan Gloria was turned into a sporty version of the Cedric.
The Nissan Caravan is a light commercial van designed for use as a fleet vehicle or cargo van and manufactured by Nissan since 1973. Between 1976 and 1997, a rebadged version of the Caravan sold as the Nissan Homy, which was introduced as an independent model in 1965. Outside Japan, the Caravan was also sold as either the Nissan Urvan or Nissan King Van, or earlier with Datsun badging.
The HR is a family of straight-3 12-valve and straight-4 16-valve automobile engines with continuously variable valve timing, involving development by Nissan and/or Renault, and also Mercedes-Benz in the case of the H5Ht/M282. The designation of H engine is used by Renault, and M28x by Mercedes-Benz, to classify the family. There are three basic specifications of engine involving variations in engine architecture, or all-new architecture, with 72.2 mm (2.84 in), 75.5 mm (2.97 in) and 78 mm (3.07 in) bore diameter.
The Nissan RD engine series is basically a Nissan RB engine design, except that it is only a single overhead cam six-cylinder diesel engine. It was the successor to the Nissan LD and SD six-cylinder engines and was joined by the six-cylinder Nissan TD engine.
F Renault engine is an automotive internal combustion engine, four-stroke, inline-four engine bored directly into the iron block, water cooled, with overhead camshaft driven by a timing belt, and with an aluminum cylinder head, developed and produced by Renault in the early '80s, making its appearance on the Renault 9 and 11. This engine is available in petrol and diesel versions, with 8 or 16 valves.
The SD engine was replaced by the Nissan TD engine. It was manufactured by Minsei Diesel Industries, Ltd., which was renamed Nissan Diesel Motor Co., Ltd in 1960.
The Nissan ZD30 engine family is a 3.0-litre inline-four cylinder diesel engine with a bore and stroke of 96 mm × 102 mm, that replaced the Nissan QD, BD and TD engines. At Renault it also replaced the Sofim 8140 engine and is the only truck diesel engine which remained with Nissan Motors when they sold Nissan Diesel to Volvo trucks in 2007.
The Nissan QD engine, successor to the Nissan TD engine, was an inline four-cylinder overhead valve diesel produced from the mid-1990s through 2000, with a turbocharger used on three variants, the QD32ETi(Elgrand and Terrano) QD32T and Qd32Ti(intercooled) in Chinese Markets. It was replaced by the Nissan ZD engine.
The BD is an automotive diesel engine produced by Nissan Diesel. BD is specified as a 4-cylinder, direct fuel injection, water-cooled naturally aspirated engine.
