Most of you already know I totaled my 3rd Gen 1997 4Runner a few months ago. Here is a link to that thread.
http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/75684-what-way-start-first-post-rip-vzn180-welcome-grn285.html
Here is the Pièce de résistance. 3.4 Liter 5VZFE V6 with a second gen TRD Supercharger, tuned with a URD Injector kit. I will elaborate on this later. The package will also include an Injen intake (CARB approved), TRD exhaust, TRD boost gauge in pod and a TRD Trans Oil cooler. I'll even include the radiator shroud since the CARB sticker is there. It will pass CA smog.
Price is $3000. Pick up in the Los Angeles / Orange County area.
I intend to sell this whole so don't ask me to part it. REALLY don't send me a PM asking me to part it!
However there might be some interested people who live too far from Southern California. For those who wants JUST the shippable items, (basically everything sans long block and exhaust) is an option. Price is still $2500
Some history of the motor. The 5VZFE has exactly 123,671 miles on the clock. I have religiously change the oil with Mobil 1 every 3000 miles. 4Runner was purchased new in February 1997. In 2001 I had the TRD Supercharger installed at a local Toyota Dealership. They also installed the TRD boost gauge and factory 4Runner gauge pod. I installed the TRD trans oil cooler which was also made specifically for the 3rd gen T4R.
In 2005 I blew a head gasket. This was because I was constantly running LEAN with no tuning and the head was essentially pinged to death. So a brand new head purchased from the dealer was installed, and the head gasket replaced. This was around the 90K mark. Since the motor was apart I also had the water pump, timing belt, new IK22 iridium plugs, wires, all drive belts replaced. I have all the receipts for this and almost all repairs.
Because I had no intention of pinging my motor to death again, I purchased a URD injector kit. Kit includes the following. Six 318cc Bosch fuel injectors modified to fit the 3.4 fuel rail and intake manifold, Walbro 190 LPH pump, URD Performance Calibration Unit and Tuning software.
The kit was professionally installed. The piggy back and the injectors are professional spliced into the harness. So I would prefer not to separate the motor from the supercharger for this reason alone. The motor runs great, and still does.
I will take a video of it running before I pull the motor tomorrow to prove it still boost and runs after the rollover.
PM me your number for details. If you don't want the long block, I have a couple of conditions.
Enjoy the pics for now.
TRD Trans oil cooler, specific to 3rd Gen T4Rs.
TRD Exhaust tip got mangled in the accident. But most competent exhaust shops can straighten the tip, or just replace it with a titanium one.
Gauge pod and gauge to show mileage. (I have 5 cars, this was not driven all that much)
