R-Type engines a without exception Gasoline Engines.

In Germany the 12R Engine was built in the Hiace-Bus of the H2 Generation, so it´s a RH2#. The same Bus could be orderes in a Diesel Version, called LH2#. The Engine there was the 1L with 2188ccm an 62PS. Later 2L and 2L-T Types werde built in.

Those 1L-Engines were even used in Crowns an Cressidas (Corona, MarkII...) in the beginning of the 80´s....

I know that one Type of Transmission Type wich was used on 1L Engines was the W4#/W5# Type.
