I have a Very Rare 1985 Toyota 4Runner SR5 (last year with solid front
axle) with a 3.0 liter OM617.952 Turbo Diesel for sale. Motor has been
in the truck for a little over a year and has been my daily driver/road
trip/Camping vehicle. Last year I drove 1600 Miles Round Trip to NYC and
back without the slightest problem. Currently 17,xxx miles on the swap.
Specs: - 4" suspension lift - 63' Chevy Springs in the back/ HD Rough Country springs up front - 35" BFG All-Terrain Brand New. (Still has the tabs from the injection mold.) - Solid Axle. (was cut and turned to correct drive angle. (Moved forward 3" for better approach)) - Axle was rebuilt about a year and a half ago - High Steer - Square Tube front D/S Balanced professionally (0 Vibration) Need new Teflon bushings to quiet the chatter at low speeds - Gusseted for support - Steering dampener - Tom Woods Custom Rear D/S - Stainless Braided Brake Lines - Custom Fabricated Oil Filter Relocation Adapters to allow easy filter access - Rebuilt Turbo - OM617.952 Motor - New Head Gasket (installed while the motor was being fitted) - New Monark Injectors. Pop tested @ 2000psi - Modified Alda - Modified Injector Pump (Rack Limiter Removed) - Hybrid 8 Puck Clutch/New Pressure Plate - Front Mount Oil Cooler - Dual Manual Controlled Cooling Fans - 4000psi rated 3/4 and 1/2 hydraulic lines for oil delivery - 2.5 Turbo Back Exhaust - Gets 22 Mpg pulling up 5% Grades in WV and 25 Mpg running around local highway/City (haven't tested with new 35" tires) - New Timing Chain - New Fuel Lines - Transmission is a stock W56 capable of withstanding the Torque of the Straight 5 Diesel - Top Shift Transfer case - Stock SR5 Altimeter/Inclinometer - Aftermarket VDO Boost/EGT gauges with 4Runner Specific 2 Gauge Pillar - All stock gauges function except for the RPM Gauge - Leather Specialty Toppers Soft Top (included) - Hard Top w/ Integrated internal LED lighting (Very Bright) - Rear Mounted Battery (backup) The Bad: - Typical Rust over the rear tires on the fender This is an incredible truck and is always getting looks, comments, double takes, questions anywhere I go and when people hear that it is a diesel, the response never gets old. Never been stuck anywhere yet. I am pretty light on the truck as it is. I go by the "it is better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it" with this thing. Never sees over 60 mph, and rarely sees boost over 6 psi. I built this truck to be a good gas mileage/Ultra Reliable/Versatile/Utilitarian Rig and it has become just that. I have no real reason to sell it other than to see what I could get for it, and I have recently moved into the city and parking this can be interesting. I would possibly trade for a WRX, but it would have to be near stock, and would prefer a wagon. NO AUTOMATICS I will not entertain low-ballers. There are only 6 that I have seen like this ever and this one is the ONLY one in within kentuckiana/ohio. The next closest is a project underway in Southern TN. I have receipts and pictures along with video for nearly everything and every mod. Also have every Fuel Fill-up since the swap, minus 2 or 3 when the printer at the pump didn't work. Thanks for taking a look!! |

Leaked Toyota FT-86 Open concept images preview droptop Scion FR-S [w/video]
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Here it is, folks - the highly anticipated Toyota FT-86 Open concept, a precursor to what could become a road-going Scion FR-S convertible. A full smattering of images and video have leaked onto the internet, and thanks to the folks at FT86Club.com, we can now see the new hotness that Toyota will be unveiling at the Geneva Motor Show next week.
These images confirm details that were first seen in spy shots captured a couple of weeks ago - namely, the larger wheel/tire package and the inclusion of the Toyobaru coupe's decidedly useless rear seats. These new photos, however, show a two-tone leather interior with goodies such as an iPod/iPhone mount on the dashboard. The concept car is also fitted with the coupe's six-speed automatic transmission (boo!) and FT86Club.com reports that the folding soft top is operated electronically.
We'll have the full details live from Geneva in just a few days. For now, click through our attached image gallery to see lots of pretty pictures of the topless wonder, and scroll down for a video to see the concept in motion.
Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota FCV Rally Car To Compete, Barra bullish on Chevy Volt
Fri, Oct 31 2014The Toyota FCV will compete in the last stage of the 2014 Japanese Rally Championship. The sport-tuned hydrogen-powered car will tackle the 177-mile Shinshiro Rally on November 1 and 2, emitting no greenhouse gases in the process. The rally course will help prove the safety of the vehicle before it goes on sale in Japan in the next several months. The Toyota FCV, rumored to be called "Mirai" in Japan, will begin sales there before April, according to Toyota, and in the summer in the US and Europe. Read more in the press release below. Carsharing is becoming more popular, and more visible, throughout the world, including the US. According to WardsAuto columnist John McElroy, 18 percent of US drivers have used some sort of carsharing service. Additionally, he says 60 percent of Americans are familiar with Zipcar and Uber. Mercedes' Harald Kroeger says promotions like free parking for carshares in Stuttgart are encouraging growth for Daimler's carsharing service, Car2go. Read more at WardsAuto. Ethanol is being help up by rail transport, according to ethanol producer Green Plains. More and more stations are carrying E15 blend gasoline, but grain producers have complained that crude oil is given higher priority by the rail lines shipping it, which rail companies deny. Union Pacific and BNSF Railway say they are stepping up service to make sure that ethanol can be shipped reliably to customers. Read more at Omaha World-Herald. General Motors "has placed a significant bet [on] the electrification of the automobile," says CEO Mary Barra. In a speech to the Detroit Economic Club this week, she spoke about the Chevrolet Volt, and its importance to GM's future. While Barra admits the Volt's success has been "not everything we wanted," it has provided experience, and shows that EVs have "an important role in the future of GM." The new Volt is more refined, stores more energy, has longer range, uses less fuel and is a big investment for Michigan. She announced that the new Volt's electric drive system will be built in Warren, and that all of its major components will be made in Michigan. "Silicon Valley doesn't have a corner on the market for innovation, creativity and drive," says Barra. "These qualities exist here – in this region – as well."

Buy a Toyota GT86 and your wife will hate you
Wed, 14 Nov 2012Marketing can be a very strange business. Convincing a man or woman (or child, really) that they absolutely cannot live without the latest, greatest new bit of technology oftentimes takes a unique approach. In the "online film promoting the Toyota GT86" you'll see below, created by agency Happiness Brussels, men are reverse-psychologied into thinking a new sports coupe will make them more masculine by getting their loved ones to hate them. Or something like that. We think.
In any case, we suggest you watch the video below to see how much fun men can have with a GT86 - or Scion FR-S or Subaru BRZ, presumably - at the expense of their significant others. Fair warning: There's a potential Not Safe For Work moment in the ad: beware of a brief male butt shot about 44 seconds in.
Marketing. Gotta love it. Unless you're married to a man. Or something like that. We think. Whatever, just watch.
