Toyota Hilux**1988 Model year
I've put a lot of love in this truck, I don't want to sell it but I'm starting a new business and need the capitol.
This beautiful truck has been fully restored, carpet and seats removed the floor was coated with POR15, frame was in great shape but had under coating on it so we put it back a black stock style.
Wheels are the original JDM wheels which are a very think steal, layered wheels, lugs are extra long aluminum lugs, tires are brand brand new BF Goodrich All terrain KOs.
* Rear axle is 2004 Tacoma with push button Electric locking differential converted to 4.10 front and rear
* Front and rear axles just received a fresh Amsoil diff fluid
* Tacoma Axle is wider so front has received wheel spacers
*Turbo kit from 2l-TE received so it looks stock on the 3L motor. The 2lte had head issues, 3L does not have any of those issues and has a lot of power with the turbo added. Its a CT20 available anywhere state side or over seas.
* Any part can be found at the US Napa or Oreilly's due to the 2L diesels coming into the states years ago
*ARB front winch bumper with 8000 WARN winch, all less than 2 months old 2000$ set up ordered from Australia
*No rust and a new color coded paint job 4 months ago
* The 2.8 3L motor was getting about 25 MPG but was slower so I added the turbo kit, still getting 25mpg but now I have loads of power.
* Comes with seals kit, fuel filter, all gaskets for the whole truck, oil filters, two timing belt kits, tools, book, air filters ect..ect. ect.
* Never had a problem with the truck, they say its a 500,000 mile truck with no maintenance and I believe it!
* all new suspension all around, rancho shocks and steering stablizer all found at Napa auto parts, oreillys or auto zone ect. fronts are 86 Toyota and back struts are 84.
* Solid front axle with swivels just like the older models, discontinued on the Toyota Hilux in 1997.
* All terrain Jack, painted to match
* New spare tires All Terrain KO
* Fresh oil change, air filter, valve cover gasket.
*** The truck gets amazing mileage, It has about 160 Horsepower and at least 240 LBS Torque, you can get more power by turning up the gas knob and you can get better fuel economy by turning down the gas but I have it at a happy medium and it has loads or power as is and can tow, climb or anything! This is a very unique truck you'll never want to sell this truck and it will not depreciate like new vehicles.
---- AC--- The truck has the factory AC as an option but there is no compressor at this time, you'll have to source one if you want AC.
Paint is fresh, PPG high quality paint, base with clear coat, no rust before or now, there's one or two small scratches nothing you'd notice right away. Call me if you'd like more details.
Feel free to give me a call on the truck, you'll receive a clean and clean US title upon purchasing the vehicle. I have a huge investment into this truck, I don't expect to get all of that back but if you want the ultimate vehicle that can tow your boat, be used as a daily driver, last forever this is it! My number is 612-964-7609

Question of the Day: Ever consider driving a minivan?
Thu, May 12 2016Since I'm supposed to know something about cars, it happens all the time: friends and relatives ask me advice about what kind of vehicle they should get. Very often, the only type of vehicle that can check every item on their wish list (e.g., hauls lots of people and stuff, gets good fuel economy, has great crash-test ratings, can take four Great Danes camping, and so on) is a modern minivan... and, of course, nobody wants to hear this. I'm not a minivan person, they will wail, and so they end up with a cramped, fuel-swilling SUV or a not-so-space-efficient minivan-in-disguise CUV. So, is it worth becoming one of those minivan people in order to get the incredible usefulness of these masterpieces of vehicle engineering, or do you hold your head high and drive something that doesn't quite meet your needs?

Vice chronicles Okinawa's illegal street racing scene
Mon, 10 Mar 2014We all know that street racing is dangerous, and that motorsports are best left on the track or drag strip. However, that doesn't mean that there still isn't some outlaw allure among enthusiasts of racing on public roads. In this video, Vice Japan profiles Eikichi Nagayoshi of Japan's island of Okinawa. He is a used car dealer by day and an illegal racer by night.
Nagayoshi has a deep love for his highly customized Toyota Aristo (better known to us as a first-generation Lexus GS) that he claims produces over 1,000 horsepower and has hit 205 miles per hour. He races his car both on drag strips and in drifting competitions, but says that he often has to ship the car to mainland Japan to compete. In the absence of those opportunities, he sometimes gathers friends and takes the racing to the public roads. While we're not down with street racing, this Vice video is an intriguing personality piece, as well as a look into Japan's fabled underground racing scene. Scroll down to check out the video, but make sure you have the "CC" button clicked, because several portions are subtitled.
