VDJ70 Series
4.5 litre turbo diesel V8 2007-2025 models

All setups are built with reliabilty at the forefront and deliver huge torque, instant throttle response, and noticeable fuel savings through improved efficiency 🤩

The result is an epic V8 rumble and a more refined ride that pulls harder, runs more efficiently, and feels effortless whether you are towing, touring, or just cruising around town. Many customers say the hardest part is not taking the long way home.

Peace of mind comes from a custom-created tune through the ECU to suit your actual vehicle and how you use it. No generic flash tunes - every file is curated and tested here in-house using our Mainline Dyno, keeping reliability and efficiency front and centre.

Reputation built on reliabilty and performance above all

No we do not tune these weapons with stadard clutches, we slip some heavy duties.

Package components

Each part and why it matters!

Fuel system upgrade

A fitting designed to replace the common rail pressure relief valve. This allows us the ability to maintain higher fuel rail pressure without the mechanical relief valve opening and causing engine codes or tuning issues. This leads to a better tune, giving you better economy through improved fuel atomisation, less injector open time and more torque as a result.

RMR1400 clutch

Upgrading the clutch is essential to get the most from our tune. It means we can ramp in the power earlier, which makes a huge difference to the bottom-end acceleration. It’s something you won’t regret. We developed this clutch as we were slipping the NPC1300’s with our Stage 1 packages due to the increase in torque. The NPC1300 and NPC1600 from NPC are not the Nm rating, instead, they are the kgs of clamp load from the clutch cover. Our clutch holds 50% better! Bear this in mind if you are comparing brands.

RMR1650 clutch

We are serious about V8 landcruiser upgrades and have plenty of skin in the game with them, we have stock of both of these systems.
RMR1650 clutch kit using the OEM flywheel- bench test holds 1312nm
NPC1600 clutch with billet flywheel - bench test holds 1205nm

Manta exhaust

The OEM exhaust system is designed to comply with increasingly strict environmental regulations, making it restrictive with non-mandrel bends and mufflers. Kinda like trying to exhale through a straw. Getting a performance exhaust will let it breathe more freely, and more power and torque can be generated, meaning more performance and better fuel economy as a result. We have partnered with Manta as they are built right here in Australia and offer a 2-year warranty on mild steel and 10 years on their stainless steel systems. They also sound great and offer multiple volume levels.

Front mount intercooler

Our friends at PDI make a solid, accessible intercooler - massive cores built for each vehicle, with stainless piping and quality silicon joiners that handle the tight engine bay well.We also build our own RMR Diesel front mount kit - fully Australian made, looks even better in the bay, and performs right on par. We'll sort the right one for your build.

Intake and Airbox

Upgrading the airbox solves the factory Toyota dusting fault - the standard box doesn't seal properly and lets dust into the engine. Our upgraded airbox prevents dust ingress, flows better, and comes installed in a clean black powder coat finish.Snorkel options to suit:A high-flow 4" snorkel for maximum airflow - great flow and looks the part, with a bit more induction noise.A hi-flow plastic snorkel for those chasing the stealth option - strong flow with minimal induction noise thanks to the muffled construction.We'll help you pick the right combo for your build.

Gturbo Turbo

Whether it’s the G380 or G400TI, there’s no better turbo to strap to the side of the mighty V8. It delivers exceptional low-end spool with strong boost all the way to redline, making it the go-to choice for those chasing serious power without sacrificing drivability. installed with new gaskets, oil and oil filter.
We can also step up to ball bearing cartridge for that jet engine sound. They do spool slightly better, but with the 4.5litre engine displacement, RMR tuning and fuel system mods theres no lag with any of our setups.

RMR + size injectors  🤯

These are mind-blowingly epic. First up, you'll actually save fuel and your engine will run smoother and cleaner with them fitted and tuned. The real magic is in the timing - bigger injectors flow more fuel in less time, so we can deliver the charge with a smarter start of injection and get combustion happening in a safer, more efficient window closer to TDC, instead of fuel still burning well after the piston's on its way down. That means more of the energy goes into pushing the piston rather than dumping heat into the exhaust, so you get sharper response, cooler EGTs, better economy, and the headroom to safely make and hold serious power. All fitted and dialled in on the dyno as part of your tune. We can fit and tune these in vehicles with standard turbos to make unreal torque and obtain ultimate fuel efficiency, great upgrade if your rig has more than 250,000kms and is over due for injector replacement.

Supporting mods

In addition to the tune packages, we also offer these accessory upgrades:

Multi-map for 2015+ models

This is not recommended for the stage 1 package, the single tune does it all - We offer map switching with cruise control so you can choose between all-out power and tow tune.

Cost $3,300

PDC 4" Airbox



The PDC airbox prevents dust ingress and flows better than the factory airbox, which is known to allow dust ingress under harsh conditions. Sutiable for R1-3 packages

Cost $1,579 Installed

SPAL 10″ thermo intercooler fans

Beneficial for beach driving or operating under heavy load at lower speeds, as bonnet scoops alone don’t direct much air through to the cooler.

Cost $2728 Installed and wired

Fatz snorkel

To complete the intake for those deep water crossings. Here is a description of the Fatz snorkel. Here is extra text to make the block.

$2786 Installed

Why 4WD Owners Trust RMR Diesel

We’ve built our reputation on reliability. From LandCruisers, Hilux and Fortuners to Isuzu, Ford and Nissan diesels. Our spotlight came from mastering the ZD30- the most criticised engine out there- turning it into a reliable, high-performance platform. That alone speaks volumes for what we achieve.

"I've been bringing my car to RMR for the last couple of years... they've always looked after my car really well. It runs amazing... RMR is the way to go."
