I'll tell you why
some kid looked up Supra and its 2JZ doing burnouts - that made him wet the front of his pants. So he googled Supra and the 2JZ-GTE - came to know that the 1JZ-GTE is its older and forgotten sister.
The rest is history.
If these guys look up what the Finns are pulling out of mercedes OM606 diesels - the universe will not make sense.
look at this video
YouTube - W123 OM606
Ive got a 1995 E300D here in Houston, which uses the same OM606 without a turbo. A line of specs should explain
3.0, I6 24valve DOHC, IDI, diesel engine with Bosch Inline Injection pump.
But the best part is I get 30 mpg in the city (corolla territory), sounds silky smooth beautiful, even the idling is a very faint ticking
