1 Owner Easy Fix Run & Drive Manual Salvage Rebuilder Wrecked Suburu Brz Frs Vid on 2040-cars
Brook Park, Ohio, United States
|
Up for sale today is my one owner Scion FR-S Coupe. It has the 2.0L Boxer engine, a manual 5 speed transmission, and all the FR-S options. Bluetooth head unit, Suede seats, etc. I do a LOT of traveling, and put on 30,000 miles in one year traveling along the south and east coast. I always took it to the dealership every 3500 miles for proper maintenance items, coolant flushes, oil changes, etc. It was an excellent car, fun and sporty, great gas mileage. I am a 30 year old business professional, and never abused it.
I put on lowering springs for a better appearance, other than that it was stock. I was driving it around town in Ohio, and someone let their dog loose. It ran right into the middle of the road infront of me, and I slammed on the brakes and swearved to avoid hitting it. I impacted a fire hydrant going about 5-10 miles per hour, and the air bags deployed. It was towed to a lot, and my insurance company totalled it out due to being a 2013. The agent offered to sell me the car back for alittle under half retail, and since I knew the history of the car (and that the engine and transmission were untouched and fine,) I quickly bought it back with plans to put on Extreme Dimensions body panels and make it custom and unique. I took it to my mechanic and body shop, they inspected the engine and transmission as you can see in the engine running videos and pictures below. Mechanically, the car is fine and will run and drive with no issues. The drivers front frame rail has a slight bend to it. I got the opinions of two certified body shops which estimated the repair at $900 for the frame rail, or $2500 for the complete repair, including panels and paint. The car is good from the doors back, and the only part of the frame that is damaged is the front half from the middle of the tire forward. I am on the road too much to finish this project, so I am offering it for sale. Don't buy a salvage car from a reseller that won't provide an engine video and has no clue on the history of the car. Here is your chance to have a $25,000 car for much less than half that. You will need the following items to finish the car: Fenders Hood Bumper Headlights Air Intake Radiator Condensor Washer Reservoir Cooling Fan Drivers side Front Lower Control Arm Air Bag If you have any questions, feel free to call, text, or email me 614-522-9626. I work for a transportation company, and get great rates on towing vehicles across the United States as well. Here is a video of this FR-S running, and sounding great, like off the show room floor: And here are some larger, additional pictures, and the CarFax: |

Scion sketches SEMA spread starring Slayer, skateboarder
Sat, 20 Sep 2014I was in Nashville last weekend for a friend's bachelor party. It's all rather fuzzy, but I do recall that my friends and I found it hilarious to request Slayer every time one of the country groups on the Broadway strip asked for a specific song to be played. While there were a few good sports, most didn't find it too funny, largely because country music and Slayer don't mix all that well. Actually, Slayer and a lot of things don't mix too well. Like Slayer and Scion, Toyota's slowly withering youth brand.
This mish-mash hasn't prevented the Japanese budget brand from teaming with the metal group for a concept vehicle based on the tC coupe (shown above). If the Slayer link is a bit too extreme, Scion has a more mainstream xB, styled by skateboarder Riley Hawk on the way. Both new vehicles will be shown at the upcoming SEMA show, but Scion has opted to release a pair of sketches of both aftermarket creations ahead of the Las Vegas expo.
It's hard to tell what kind of exterior changes have been made to the tC, although Scion says the cabin now boasts a 32-inch monitor, as well as a heavily revamped stereo. As you can see, it will say "Slayer" on the door, in the band's stylized script.
Toyota recalls power window switches for 6.5 million vehicles [UPDATE]
Wed, Oct 21 2015UPDATE: There was one incident of someone in the US getting a burn to the hand from this issue Toyota spokesperson Cindy Knight tells Autoblog that. "We have 11 reports where part of the door trim and/or switch was burnt," she said. The company isn't aware of any crashes from the problem, though. Because of a potential short circuit in the driver's side power window switch, Toyota is recalling 6.5 million vehicles worldwide, Reuters reports. Of those, the automaker says around 2 million are in the US. The affected models here are: 2007 and 2009 Camry and Camry Hybrid 2009-2011 Corolla 2008-2011 Highlander and Highlander Hybrid 2009-2011 Matrix 2006-2011 RAV4 2009-2011 Sequoia 2009-2011 Tundra 2006-2010 Yaris 2009-2011 Scion xB 2009-2010 Scion xD According to Toyota, the switch might not have received adequate lubricant grease during manufacturing, and over time this could lead to a short circuit. In a worst-case scenario, the part might even overheat, melt and cause a fire. As a fix, dealers will inspect the component on these vehicles and apply heat-resistant grease to it, and any broken examples will have an internal circuit board replaced. Toyota already issued one recall for this problem in 2012 when it had to repair 7.5 million vehicles globally from the 2007-2009 model years, including 2.5 million in the US. These latest models had the grease applied in a different way.

The involved vehicles include certain: 2007 and 2009 Camry and Camry Hybrid 2009-2011 Corolla 2008-2011 Highlander and Highlander Hybrid 2009-2011 Matrix 2006-2011 RAV4 2009-2011 Sequoia 2009-2011 Tundra 2006-2010 Yaris 2009-2011 Scion xB 2009-2010 Scion xD The Power Window Master Switch in the involved vehicles may have been manufactured with insufficient lubricant grease. If not enough grease is applied, under certain conditions the switch may develop a short circuit that can cause the switch assembly to overheat and melt. A melting switch can produce smoke and potentially lead to a fire. Toyota previously recalled certain 2007-2009 model year vehicles for a similar condition.
Toyota GT86 GT4 racer is ready for UK competition
Tue, 05 Feb 2013It's about time we saw someone cook up a legitimate race version of the delectable Toyota GT86, and now it looks as if GPRM has done just that. The Buckingham-based race engineering team has built the creation you see here, complete with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, direct-injection four-cylinder boxer cooked up by Nicholson McLaren Engines. The team says the new mill delivers between 360 and 400 horsepower to the rear wheels depending on final testing, which is a sight bit more than the 197 horses the naturally aspirated stock mill offers.
The car will compete in GT4 events, including the Avon Tyres British GT Championship. Technically, the GPRM effort isn't factory backed, but the team says the effort "has the blessing of Toyota Great Britain." How could it not? You can check out the brief press release below below, and be sure to take a closer look at the machine in our gallery.
