    is there anyway to beef up the 3.4?

    Yes it will rub at full turn. Get new wheels with an offset of at least 35 if I remember right. I had a fully rebuilt 1uz that was 1 week from going into my runner but then I had to sell my 4runner. I still have the motor but now it has twin turbos, new pistons, cams and injectors and is...

    Ok, One Final Goodbye

    If you're referring to the fact that there's and auto shifter in the pic its because I couldn't get rid of that stupid auto tranny so it sat in my shop for almost a year and then a guy from yotatech offered me $600 for my r151 so I threw the auto back in the runner and sold the r151. I sold the...

    is there anyway to beef up the 3.4?

    Seriously, everyone who owns a 3rd gen 4runner should no the electric fan swap. It will shock you how much of a difference it makes. That belt driven fan takes so much power away from that motor I'm honestly suprised that Toyota didn't use an electric fan as standard. The whole swap can be done...

    Ok, One Final Goodbye

    Wow, I havent talked to you in while. How's the runner doin? This isnt my Lex but here's basicly what I did and what I used. The armrests, center consol lid and door panels are all real leather from a limited runner then dyed black. Changing my interior from tan to black (pix included) - Club...

Some of the stuff I cant give away...

    Front Speaker install - Spacers?!

    Great choice on the subwoofer! To be honest, i wouldnt really worry about all of that. Its just a waste of time and money. Just drill the new hole, it wont be a problem putting the old speaker back in if thats what youre worried about. If you have any questions let me know. Im an ex-car audio...

    Ok seriously, it took me about 20 mins to find a picture of your 4runner without a busted front end. Your avatar looked awesome and I wanted to see some actual pics of your runner. Anyways, you have quite possibly one of the sexiest 4runners I've ever seen on this forum. Maybe im just a sucker...

    No, not really. I had close to $12,500 invested into it (not including the 4runner itself) They're too tall. The slightes gust of wind will almost blow you off the road. Plus I got an amazing deal on the Ram Van. It blue booked for $13k and I got it for $5k Sorry it's already been sold, but...

    Dim the lights, take a bow, it's time to say goodbye

    To everyone, this will probably be one of my last posts on T4R.org because my 4Runner has been sold. It wasn't something that I really wanted to do, but I had to. For all of you who knew me as Matt Starr then you know that I'm the drummer of Glass Delirium and being in a band requires some...

    I Found The Cure For T4RSS (Toyota 4Runner Snob Syndrom) lol!

    the hitch might be aftermarket but the nuts and bolts aren't. It's hard to explain how I know, I'll try to take a picture. Your's must have been changed out cause the hitch on my 4runner has either 4 or 6 bolts (i can't remember) and they were all 19mm

    I Found The Cure For T4RSS (Toyota 4Runner Snob Syndrom) lol!

    I can't speak for modern American vehicles but after working on this van I can see the difference in how cars are built between Americans, Europeans and Japanese. The Japanese and European way of building a car is very anal-retentive. Everything has to be precise and as close to perfect as...
