Toyota Landcruiser BJ60 conversion, This is a very nice conversion onto a FJ60 frame and body of the same year. I bought the original BJ60 Turbo Diesel in Canada that had a rusted out frame and body, But has very low miles on exceptional running gear, ( only 132,xxx miles on it ). I had a clean FJ60 i purchased to fix up a bit for a hunting and camping rig, But decided to do a complete conversion onto the FJ60 rather than try to repair the frame and body of the BJ60. So the FJ60 got completely striped down to shell sitting on frame, With every thing out of the interior, seats, doors, carpet, dash, wiring harnes, seat belt, And the frame striped clean of all axles ,springs, brake lines, fuel lines. In preperation for cleaning, repainting, and installing new nuts and bolts where the old ones where worn. All the running gear from the BJ60 was installed onto the frame using new mounts, nuts, and bolts. Then the interior was all cleaned and the using the best of both was reinstalled into the new conversion.
The motor and drive train have only 132,xxx miles on them and are in great shape. It runs and drives great and is a lot of fun to drive, It gets 30+ miles to the gallon in the freeway, And in the upper twentys around town. The motor is a Toyota 3BT Turbo Diesel, With a 5 Speed transmision, with a manuel transfer case. It runs smooth and quite.Goes down the road super nice and straight, Very smooth with no problems
The frame is in near perfect condition, Just the normal dirt and road grime on it from 30 years, So it was cleaned and recoated with the spray on under coater and it looks nice and clean for the most part, I didn't go crazy on it cause it didn't need it.
The axles are out of the low miles BJ60 and were cleaned, sanded and repainted before reinstalling, they are in great shape with newer brakes. The hubs, rotors, pads, and linings all are in great shape.
The Cruiser has new Old Man Emu 3 inch lift springs up front that are the right ones for the extra weight of the diesel, It also has a shackel reversal kit installed up front, There are lift springs in the rear and a 2 inch body lift to clear the tires and what ever else you need to go over.
The tires are 33 inch BFG all terrains and the front tires have 80% to 85% tread, The rear tires a brand new, And the spare is a match and has 80% to 85% tread in it, And the spare is mounted underneath in the rear.
The body was in good shape with only minor dents and minor rust in the rear wheel wells, I do body and paint work so the repair on the body was easy with just a couple minor dent repairs, The rust was removed and refiberglassed, Its been completely repainted including the door jams, useing quality products, It has 3 coats of epoxy primer, 4 coats of urethane base coat, And 4 coats urethane clear top coat. It looks very nice and should hold up for years to come.
Over all this Landcruiser is in very exellent condition, ( 9 out of 10 ) with no problems and will be a lot of fun for years to come!

Toyota GT86 engineers explored shooting brake and sedan variants, are they still in the cards?
Wed, 13 Mar 2013According to the Toyota UK blog, engineers for the automaker were so excited developing the GT86 coupe that they investigated producing a whole family of models based on the rear-wheel drive sports car. And at least one engineer - product chief Tetsuya Tada - still hopes it can happen, even if not everyone at Toyota is onboard. Tada: "Actually we tried to do this secretly but the executives found us out. They said: 'What are you doing? Will you please focus on the coupe.'"
Those mooted variants included both a four-door sedan and a shooting brake. Why? Aside from the pure excellence of a lightweight, brilliantly handling hatchback, Toyota was keenly aware of the fact that it may need to spread the cost of development out across several models. Tada says that's part of the reason why it was so easy to create the convertible. The company knew from the outset that a softtop version was in the cards, and built the machine's structure to accommodate having the roof sliced off.
Tada also made mention of the already-announced collaboration between Toyota and BMW. The engineer said that the GT86 was particularly helpful because it demonstrated just how successful a product conceived and designed by two different companies can be. While he didn't say exactly what Toyota and BMW are up to, it's clear the two are looking into a number of possibilities. It's an interesting read with a lot of
2015 Toyota Camry set to circle NASCAR track near you
Mon, 13 Oct 2014Toyota recently introduced the all-new 2015 Camry for the street, so it follows that it should want to promote its new bread-and-butter sedan by putting it out on the racetrack as well. And that's just what it's done here with the release of the new Toyota Camry for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.
The new Camry represents the first reskin of the standard stock car chassis since the Gen-6 model was introduced in 2012. Toyota's Calty Design studio worked closely with series organizers to determine which parts could be redesigned to more closely resemble the new production model, and what you see here is the result. Since it is based on the same control chassis as all the others, the Camry's skin is applied over a steel tube frame and powered by an old-school 5.86-liter pushrod V8 mated to a four-speed manual gearbox.
Although the idea of a Japanese automaker in American stock car racing didn't initially get the warmest reception from some of the good ol' boys when it first entered the series back in 2007, it has by now become a staple of the NASCAR circuit. After all, it's hard for even the most patriotic of racing fans to argue with the US-built Camry's ranking as one of the most American cars by content on the market.
Toyota unveils two new small displacement engines
Thu, 10 Apr 2014Toyota introduced a pair of brand-new engines in Japan today, that it says will eventually spawn 14 different variants by 2015. Where these two engines stand out in today's world, is that neither mill boasts direct injection, and both are naturally aspirated.
The larger of the two is a 1.3-liter, while the smaller engine, a 1.0-liter, was developed in collaboration with Daihatsu. What makes these two unique is that they both use the Atkinson cycle. Now, we aren't going to bore you by explaining just what this is - there's Google for that. Suffice it to say, Atkinson engines are highly efficient, but that efficiency comes by sacrificing power. That's why they're so popular in hybrids, which can offset the power losses.
This focus on fuel efficiency extends throughout the new engines, which also benefit from tweaks like a cooled exhaust gas recirculation system and a trick intake port, while the 1.3 employs Toyota's iE variant of variable valve timing. Both engines can be fitted with stop-start tech. According to Toyota, when fitted with stop-start the 1.3 should provide around a 15-percent bump while the 1.0-liter will increase economy around 30 percent, when they arrive on the road.
