I wasn't in my JEEP ![]() To what average speed can a modern SUV tame "NH17" type roads? Bomb Craters & Great Divides. Rough and Rutted roads, IFS has definite advantage. In such cases the IFS makes the ride more comfortable and marginally faster. And then again we know what a GV can do off-road. Regards, Arka PS - Follow up on the "BOWLER WILDCAT" suspension | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Guys, With cruise-ability i meant on road where one could go fast as other cars but couldn't because of limited engine power and short gearing. IFS is good for bad roads, no doubt one can be faster on it without being too uncomfortable. Again lot of factors here, depends on the vehicle and the type of surface generally traveled on.

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Hi Spike, Even I got some pics and parts list of the NEF TCI 2.49L only problem is its a 13mb PDF File. But let me give you my inferences. The 2498cc XD3P engine has the best power to weight in its class (2.5L or under 200kgs Diesel) 76Bhp/194Kgs up to 128Bhp/210Kgs for the XD3TI (TCIC) Also the Peugeots XD3P is designed to rev up to 4600rpm, phenomenal for a 4 Cyl Diesel Engine. So what does M&M Do in the NEF. i) Changes the Bore X Stroke of its Pet Engine; the B275 Family Engine Block to 2498cc. The question is why didn't they stick to 2523cc of the MDI3200TC or the 2650cc of the SZ2600, It is because of the Crankshaft/Con Rod/Piston and Rotating assy design, of the Peugeot XD3P is far superior. ii) Change it to wet-liner like the XDP4.9/B275 (e.g NEF TCI 2.49L). iii) Retain the Push-Rods and the XD3P Crank-Shaft. You get a 2498cc engine which revs up to 4600 RPM (when required/allowed) So what you get, best of both world, Reliability and RPM. Torque & BHP go hand in hand and that depends on the Fuel Injection System and now you have CRDI. SPIKE 2 Direct Questions to you. 1) What is the displacement of the NEF Crdi? 2) What is the Weight of the NEF Crdi? Regards, Arka PS - wrt the pics it looks similar to a MDI3200TC or SZ2600 block ![]() FORD Transit Camper Van used a 2498cc Diesel Engine Welcome To Ganesh Auto Industries Guess which one? Quote:

IFS is good not just for good roads, but for really screwed up roads. My OE HT tyres were worn out and had to be replaced at 17,000 kms. | |

![]() 3. Weight of engine is 187 kgs with all fluids topped up. Hope it is clear now. Spike P.S. Arka please decide first, which engine does NEF resemble to XD3P,SZ2600 or MDI3200 (SZ2600 is a square engine, MDI3200 is undersquare and XD3P is oversquare), you cannot stand on three boats at the same time, and if you say NEF resembles SZ2600/MDI3200 that means your logic of NEF resembling XD3P is incorrect. ![]() Last edited by SPIKE ARRESTOR : 17th February 2010 at 18:49. | |

This might be a little off topic over here but as per my discussion with the local M&M Service guy while discussion Bolero CRDe engine and M-Eagle, he said that even though from outside they may look same, they are different engines with difference being in the Cavity in the Piston Head and slight modifications in the head. Apart from this the ECU tuning is also different. Atleast M&M accepts that the Bolero CRDe is based on the XD3P and is not NEF. |

![]() You have confused between engines. Bolero CRde engine is also M eagle and belongs to NE family M&M has been denying Bolero CRde has anything to do with XD3p. 2498cc is the bone of contention ![]() Last edited by vinod_nookala : 17th February 2010 at 19:06. | |
