Year:1994

Location:
Madison, Mississippi, United States
"Well sorted, dedicated track car - owned for past 10 plus years. No known damage, offs or excuses." I purchased this car from a friend that had shipped his car to Powerhouse Racing of Texas for a monster build. After many months he got the car back and did what most people do when it arrives back in their hands – looked for someone to sell it to as it wasn’t as interesting to own as it was to build. I took over this “drag queen” and removed the 6-point chromalloy cage, HKS triple clutch, huge turbocharger and high boost engine and started over. At least it had a brand new Toyota/Getrag V160 6-speed transmission and TRD LSD that were left over and kept. We used panel bonding to adhere the targa roof to the rest of the top and shipped it to Kirk Racing near Birmingham AL for a full DOM Steel roll cage including NASCAR bars on both driver and passenger sides and for the placement of the fuel cell. I asked for the “wife and kids plan” and got enough bars for two playgrounds precisely welded and reinforced shoehorned inside for a 4000 lbs car to crash at 100 MPH and hopefully walk away from. I then shipped the car to the famed Supra shop of Titan Motorsports in Orlando FL where Nero and his team mounted the seats, created the battery box, welded forced cooling plates onto the radiator and intercooler for maximum effect. They also did a nifty, low-drag cutouts job on the rear bumper, installed the J-spec gears in the diff, welded the steering column and mounted the battery disconnect. I then shipped the car to Performance Motorsports of Austin TX where Chris Johnson created a super sexy, high clearance and sweet sounding exhaust, custom brake ducts created, installed the catch can and modified the valve covers to accept larger crank vents to keep those high oil pressures from causing FMS failures. Back at home in Jackson MS is where the real work on taking all the base elements to the next level – fine tuning what was really needed to make such a beast thrive on some of the best road courses in North American. The engine was swapped for one with more torque and lower boost levels in mind, a smaller turbo sourced and a base tune on the AEM ECU. Track driving over the years has led me to change things that needed improvement or fixing including swapping pad combinations, creating a power steering cooler that would work and choosing the right fluids for the car. There was nothing more satisfying than showing up at a track day with your buddies, rolling the car out and almost never working on it other than swapping pads, wheels/tires and adding gas! Blasting by newer and more expensive exotics wasn’t too bad either! Hitting a “buck 70” on the back straights of Road Atlanta, smoking past full race car Porsche’s at Homestead or hanging with the Corvette gang at Barber is going to be missed but I’ve moved on to tracking motorcycles now … still it will be sad. I’ve got over $135,000 invested not including any maintenance. Don’t hesitate to contact me if I may be of help or to answer questions. I will deliver it in an enclosed trailer for FREE in a 400 mile radius with full payment.

Toyota to kill Scion brand [w/video]
Wed, Feb 3 2016Toyota Motor Co. said Wednesday it will kill its youth-oriented Scion brand, ending a 13-year experiment that attracted new customers but ultimately drained resources from the parent company. The FR-S sports car, iA sedan, and iM five-door hatchback will be re-badged as Toyotas starting in August for the 2017 model year, and the tC coupe will end production then. The C-HR displayed at the Los Angeles Auto Show will become a Toyota vehicle when it launches. Scion's 22 dedicated team members will be given opportunities to join Toyota. Toyota says it made the decision in response to customers' needs, noting it finds younger buyers want practicality in addition to the individualistic styling and features that Scion offered. Meanwhile, Toyota's own vehicles have gotten sportier, which the company says appeals to younger buyers. Scion claimed some successes, pointing to its average customer age of 36 years old, with 70 percent of its buyers new to Toyota. Scion sold more than a million vehicles since it launched. Its best year was 2006, when it sold 173,034 vehicles. Sales declined steadily in 2007-08 and then crashed in 2009 during the recession to 57,961 units, before bottoming out in 2010 with only 45,678 sales. "This isn't a step backward for Scion; it's a leap forward for Toyota. Scion has allowed us to fast track ideas that would have been challenging to test through the Toyota network," said Jim Lentz, founding vice president of Scion and now CEO, Toyota Motor North America. "I was there when we established Scion and our goal was to make Toyota and our dealers stronger by learning how to better attract and engage young customers. I'm very proud because that's exactly what we have accomplished." While Scion never recovered from its drastic sales decline, it served as a test bed for marketing and dealer tactics that helped its parent company. Scion tried out no-haggle pricing, a streamlined option plan (some cars had only two choices: color and transmission) and a pre-paid maintenance plan. "We appreciate our 1,004 Scion dealers and the support they've given the brand," said Bob Carter, Toyota senior vice president of automotive operations. "We believe our dealers have gained valuable insights and have received a strong return on their investment.
Toyota investing $30 million in Indiana for more Highlander production
Sun, 28 Jul 2013Indiana seems like the place to be if you're looking for work in a car factory. In May, Subaru announced plans to invest $400 million in its Lafayette, Indiana plant, creating 900 new jobs in the process and increasing capacity to 300,000 units per year. Now, Toyota has announced plans to invest $30 million in its Princeton, Indiana plant, 170 miles south of the Subaru factory, which also builds the Camry.
Toyota's investment will create an additional 200 jobs and increase the factory's volume by 15,000 units. Toyota announced an investment in the plant in February of 2012 that bumped volume up from 300,000 to 350,000 units. Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indiana, as the Princeton facility is officially known, produces the recently revised Toyota Highlander, the Sequoia and the Sienna. It employs 4,500 people, and this announcement represents Toyota's tenth production increase in under two years.

Watch a Toyota Highlander ram a house, twice
Mon, 15 Apr 2013Toyota has had plenty of problems in recent years due to claims of unintended acceleration, and now here's a video that actually catches such a claim on video. The driver of this 2010-2013 Toyota Highlander claims that the crossover's accelerator got stuck causing the vehicle to slam into the house twice, and resulting in damage to the Highlander, the house and two vehicles inside the garage. While we don't know when this accident took place, the video was uploaded to YouTube back in January.
It is impossible to determine what actually happened in this video, but what we do know is that a security camera captures the Highlander slowly pulling into the driveway before it lunges forward slamming into the garage. With the tires squealing and metal crunching, the driver then shifts between reverse and drive a couple times causing even more property damage before spinning out in the street and finally being able to shift into Park. Scroll down to see the video for yourself. Whether unintended acceleration or driver error, this was undoubtedly a harrowing ordeal.
