E23 TD27

A very well maintained E23 Nissan Urvan. Only two E23s in Mombasa. The other works only at night,
Hii inafanya kazi mpaka wakati wa huu msako wa matatu, so probably documentation iko tiptop.

Its a kudos to the owner, given vile hii kazi ni ngumu.

ION Matatu inabeba route ya Mombasa - Mtwapa inafaa kuwa na sticker saba kwa windscreen.

Gatwendithirii. :cool:

There’s one in Langata Route 34. Still had its petrol engine too until a while back. Swaffi saidi.

Another beauty also operates the Kikuyu-Nairobi route.

KYC 100

It looks quite good in the MetroTrans colours

Kuna moja Route ya South B - Ngumo…i must say Engine yake iko timam…probably walibadilisha…can u still get the E23 engines ama E24/E25 can be used??

Zapatikana.
By the way, e23 engine sio TD27 as the title of this thread reads. Engine ni any of these…
Sd23, diesel
Z20, petrol
Z16, petrol
Some had the NA20 petrol.

E24, e25 ni models za gari. Sio engine.

By the way, hii gari ilikuwa moto sana. Hata Toyota Hiace ilipoingia ilibandikwa jina ‘nissan’, some were calling it nissan Toyota! I call it the pioneer, the gatwendithirii.

Nostalgia, buddies!

The one that works at night huku Msa has a TD27. Lakini ya kuwekelea

I think inaingiliana na QD32. Kuna E25 hutolewa hizo troublesome ZD30 zao zinaekwa QD and they fit perfect.
If it fits on E25 and E24, it will probably fit on the E23 too

The TD engine huwekelewa kwa e23 na inafanya kazi, alright. But inakuwa very squeezed kwa kuwa sd23 engine is significantly smaller than the TD engine and so it does not leave enough room for @introvert to work with ease.

Huwa kuna TD23, td25, TD27 na QD32. All these engines look the same. The internals are where the differences are. Hizi zote zinakuja na Nissan e24. [ATTACH=full]210092[/ATTACH]

E25 inakuja na engine inayoitwa zd30. Kuna variants za hii engine pia. All of them are shitty! Probably because almost all of them zinatumia computer.

In the late 80s there was an E20 operating West Madaraka - Tao called Midnight Express.
Very sweet.

Ile manual hua inajaribu I hate the auto one

Computer plus the sludge that passes for diesel in these shores. Diesel ya huku chafu sana
Kuna hummer kadhaa huku zilitolewa zd30+auto zikaekelewa qd32+manual and you can’t even tell. Steering column ndo utajua nayo there’s a slit where the auto shifter was

Niko na hiyo zd30 engine na imenisumbua sana

what for?
