I decided a wanted to build a 1st gen 4runner and this is what I created.  I wanted a rust free, stock, clean 4runner. I found what I was looking for here on ebay. It was an 89 4runner, 250k, perfect interior, NO RUST ANYWHERE! , A/C works perfect , unmalested, came with a soft top. I didnt care about the miles because I wanted a fresh motor. I paid 4500 for it and had it shipped to me from Maryland. So then I was on the hunt for a brand new 22re. I found one in NY that was completely rebuilt and still rapped up in storage. I paid 1200 for it. Got it home and started talking apart the truck. I took my time doing the swap and did everything correctly. Bought a brand new red top optima battery 250$. After Market headers 300$. and other small parts. I did the correct break in on the motor. 500 miles, oil change,1500 mile, oil change, still not at next 3000 miles. GETS 20MPG! The check engine light is on right now for the mass airflow sensor. Havnt gotten around to getting a new one yet. So thats the motor. Then I wanted tires. I bought brand new Goodyear wrangler Duratracs. 285/75r16. so about 33 inches tall 11.5 wide. On brand new alloy rims. 1400$. I put in 2 inch Ball joint spacers in the front.And Add a leafs and the ZUK mod in the back.250$ Then bought a trail gear rear bumper 300$ Then decided to regear for the larger tires. So I bought brand new 4.88s front and rear 500$ plus another 500 to get them professionally  installed. Also i put a brand new Detroit tru trac locker in the front 500$. So thats the suspension. Put a brand new deck, subwoofer, alpine amp and 2 6 inch speakers in 900$ Also put a sr5 gauge cluster in 100$ Also came with a 600$ Soft top which is awesome in the summer. New exhaust.



When I started the build I wanted a truck to last me the next 20 years and be bullet proof, small lift with 33s, and rides nice on the road. Thats exactly what this 4runner does. It rides perfectly and starts up every time. I have atleast 11,000 into it.

WHAT IT NEEDS. 
E brake doesnt work because the rear passenger side brake needs work.
small manifold leak because its missing a stud
about a 3 inch whole in drivers side bed panel
Check engine light is on like I said for Mass Airflow sensor


THIS IS AN EARLY BIRD SPECIAL> In a few weeks I will be fixing all these problems and will repost this truck for a lot more money. I don't have that much time so I'd like to sell it now but if I don't get the amount I want I will repost for what its really worth after I fix these small issues. This is a great 4x4 truck, 20mpg, geared right for the tires. Not to lifted. Just the perfect 4runner.

Txt 413-884-2814 for more pics or specific questions. Im looking for 8,000. If it doesn't sell and I fix the issues ill be asking 10,000 on the repost.

24 Hours of Le Mans live update part two

Sun, Jun 19 2016

We tasked surfing journalist Rory Parker to watch this year's live stream of the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. What follows is an experiment to experience the world's greatest endurance race from the perspective of a motorsports novice. Parker lives in Hawaii and can hold his breath longer than he can go without swearing. For Part One, click here. Or you can skip ahead to Part Three here. I write about surfing for a living. If you can call it a living. Basically means I spend my days fucking around and my wife pays for everything. Because she's got a real job that pays well. Brings home the bacon. Very progressive arrangement. Super twenty first century. I run a surf website, beachgrit.com, with two other guys. It's a strange gig. More or less uncensored. Kind of popular. Very good at alienating advertisers. My behavior has cost us a few bucks. I'm terrible at self-censorship. Know there's a line out there, no idea where it lies. I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. For contests I do long rambling write ups. They rarely make much sense. Mainly just talk about my life, whatever random thoughts pop into my head. "Can you do something similar for Le Mans?" "Sure, but I know absolutely fuck-all about racing." "That's okay. Just write what you want." "Will do. But you're gonna need to edit my stuff. Probably censor it heavily." So here I am. I spent the last week trying to learn all I can about the sport of endurance racing. But there's only so much you can jam in your head. And I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. While I rambled things were happening. Tracy Krohn spun into the gravel on the Forza chicane. #89 is out of the race after an accident I missed. Pegasus racing hit the wall on the Porsche curves. Bashed up front end, in the garage getting fixed. Toyota and Porsche are swapping back and forth in the front three. Ford back in the lead in GTE Pro. #91 Porsche took a stone through the radiator, down two laps. Not good. The wife and I are one of those weird childless couples that spend way too much time caring for the needs of their pet. French bulldog, Mr Eugene Victor Debs. Great little guy. Spent the last four years training him to be obedient and friendly. Nice thing about dogs, when you're sick of dealing with them you can just lock 'em in another room for a few hours. You don't need to worry about paying for college.

Toyota adds 1.6m cars to Takata inflator recall list

Tue, May 24 2016

As part of the Takata airbag inflator recall expansion announced by NHTSA earlier this month, Toyota has listed an additional 1.6 million cars that will need to have inflators or airbag assemblies replaced. This brings the total of recalled Toyota, Scion, and Lexus vehicles to 4.73 million. Other automakers will announce their expanded recall lists this week as well. This round of recalls affects some but not all vehicles with the following model names and years: 2009–2011 Toyota Corolla and Matrix 2006–2011 Toyota Yaris 2010–2011 Toyota 4Runner 2011 Toyota Sienna 2008–2011 Scion xB 2007–2011 Lexus ES 2010–2011 Lexus GX 2006–2011 Lexus IS To see if your specific vehicle falls under recall, write down your VIN and go to toyota.com/recall; you can also check any recalls, Takata or otherwise, at safercar.gov/vin. Toyota will inform owners of affected vehicles by mail. Depending on the model, either the inflator or the entire airbag assembly will have to be replaced. Due to the number of vehicles that have already been recalled, it may take some time for the necessary parts to be available. A total of 11 deaths have been attributed to the faulty Takata inflators, and federal investigators now know why the parts are prone to failure. The state of Hawaii was the first to sue the auto supplier, with more states expected to follow. The 17 other automakers are required to announce their additions resulting from the May 4 expansion this week, so expect more of the 35 to 40 million vehicles to be listed soon.

Toyota makes $100M investment to boost Indiana Highlander production

Mon, 25 Aug 2014

Toyota has announced that it will be making a $100 million investment in its Princeton, IN factory in a bid to increase production of its popular Highlander CUV. The move will create 300 new jobs by 2016 and increase the total number of crossovers the plant can produce by 30,000.
Toyota currently builds the Highlander, alongside the fullsize Sequoia, at Toyota Indiana's West Plant. The additional capacity, though, will be sent to the East Plant, which is currently responsible for production of the recently refreshed Sienna minivan.
"The Highlander has been a great product for our plant," Toyota Indiana President Norm Bafunno said in a statement. "Establishing Highlander as the 'bridge vehicle,' as we call it, between the East and West plants increases our ability to meet customer needs for our outstanding products. This exciting news is a true testament to the capability of our hard-working and dedicated team members."
