I have owned this car for over 10 years and have modified the engine and drive train to make it more fun to drive. The body is straight with only a couple of dings, and the interior is in exceptional condition with the piping on the drivers seat being the only upholstery problem. The Dash has a crack in front of the speedometer cluster, and one crack in driver arm rest. I rebuilt the engine when I purchased it about 50,000 miles ago and used ross forged pistons, ACL bearings, and a Cometic 2.o mm head gasket with ARP head bolts. It had a to4B turbo on it when I bought it, which made 425 rwhp after a bit of tuning and supporting modifications including; Aeromotive FPR Stainless tubular exhaust manifold RC 550cc injectors Tial Blow off Valve and wastegate Walbro 255lph fuel pump wired independently of harness GReddy Profec B spec II Boost Controller SAFC-2 air/fuel control piggyback Innovate LM-1 Wideband a/f meter Custom intercooler piping Cartech FMIC Lexus AFM Tanabe Hyper Medallion exhaust system RPS 3200# clutch Fidanza aluminum flywheel Eibach Sport lowering springs Tokico illumina TEMS compatible shocks Supra MKiv TT wheels with very low mileage Firehawk wide ovals 245/45/x17 on front and Nitto 555 285/40x17 on rear I have since that time added a genuine garret G3582r BB turbo to improve performance and driveability. Having a wideband allows one to adjust fuel on the fly and I have not gotten a dyno run since the new turbo about 3 years ago. It has the usual old car miscellaneous minor leaks, but has been a daily driver for years. Non smoking car with icy cold A/C. Not a car for someone without mechanical aptitude and ability, but a great car if you feel the need for speed. I am now retired and Just don't have the inclination or energy to play with this one anymore.

Toyota SEMA concepts promote active lifestyles, rallying [w/video]

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

Toyota has six vehicles that it's bringing to the Specialty
Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show next week, all of which were developed by and for people who live active lifstyles. Four of them are the result of the Toyota Dream Build Challenge, which tasked a team of athletes and vehicle customization shops to build Toyota sedans, pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles in seven weeks that would enhance performance in their respective sports.
We'll lead off with the CamRally Camry, developed by NASCAR driver Parker Kligerman, Kyle Busch Motorsports and Mooresville, NC shop Detroit Speed, Inc. for the Dream Build Challenge, because it appeals to us gearheads (sure, call us one-sided). It was totally transformed into a rally vehicle, and it has to be the most badass Camry we can remember seeing. The sedan is always a bit flaccid-looking in stock form, but the CamRally's wide body and other exterior upgrades and the turbocharger make us forget about that, as do its stripped, painted interior and Sparco race seat.

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).

Toyota gives a free RAV4 to 50-millionth customer [w/video]

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

Not surprisingly, the 50-millionth Toyota product sold in the US was a Camry, but Toyota had a big surprise in store for Michael Dee, the buyer of said milestone vehicle. Toyota group vice president Bill Fay showed up at Dee's house to not only personally thank him for the purchase, but also completely paid off that brand new Camry, presenting the owner with a clear title.
But that wasn't all. As you can tell from the image above, Fay had one more trick up his sleeve. The group VP brought along a brand new 2013 Toyota RAV4, which was also presented to Dee in appreciation. The best part is that Dee's genuine amazement was all caught on video, which is posted below.
