Up for sale is a 1994 Toyota 4Runner SR5 V6. This is a nice, inexpensive 4X4 that could be used as a daily driver or as the basis for a good off road rig.
The Bad: Truck has the typical rust starting in a few places, at tailgate along door bottoms and at rear quarters below rear doors. Not bad, except the tailgate as shown in the photos. There is a little of the typical oil leakage from this 3VZE engine. There is some seepage at the front differential. I believe the truck will need u-joints, as there is vibration that feels like u-joints that starts around 60-70 mph. Valvetrain is a little noisy, as is common with a lot of these truck 3.0s. The rear defroster does not work. The factory radio/tape/cd player works fine, but the display goes out sometimes when warm. Paint is faded on the hood and roof. There is a dent and small spot on the passenger rear door, but I have a spare door that is an exact duplicate. The front bumper is slightly tweaked and there are a few holes drilled down low on the passenger side front of the bumper cover near the bottom by factory fog light location. Interior is pretty clean, but seat fabric up front is a little torn in spots and the typical dash pad crack is there.
The Good: A lot good about this truck. I bought it at roughly 142K. Since purchase I have: done complete timing belt and water pump job with tensioner, etc., replaced washer pumps, wipers, complete tune up minus fuel filter, new front rotors and pads, flushed entire brake hydraulics, all new BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A TKO tires, new rear shoes come with it, replaced the knock sensor and wiring with new shielded wiring so there will never be an issue with knock sensors. It has one mounted in the lift hook, and a new unit in the block with the pigtail all ready. Currently the one in the lift hook is connected. Air meter has been re-clocked to reduce factory rich condition. EVERYTHING works in this truck except for the rear defroster. All else, works, the cruise, all windows, 4X4, lights, locks, keyless entry, AC has a new compressor and charge and blows ice cold, roof works smooth, engine runs excellent, good oil pressure, coolant temp., muffler/tailpipe was replaced at purchase, Aux. lights are Hella 500s and Blazer Explorer fogs, both actuated with illuminated switches at left knee panel and slaved to the low and high beams through relays. Sound system still sounds very good, power antenna works, truck drives quietly, with no clunks or issues, steering column seal was also replaced. Front CV axles replaced. Chassis is in good shape with no apparent rust at frame rails or other structures. there is some typical surface rust underneath as shown. All gauges work, all indicators, and the 4X4 light come on as they should. All roof racks intact and moveable. Truck has a good inspection until 11/13.
Please feel free to email questions about anything you think is important to know about this truck. Serious bidders only please.

Toyota restructuring US operations, possibly moving to Texas
Sun, 27 Apr 2014According to multiple sources familiar with the matter, Toyota is poised to announce Monday that it is restructuring its US operations, which may include plans to relocate some of its operations to Texas. Toyota Motor Sales has been located in California since 1957, and is responsible for North American sales, marketing, and distribution for Toyota, Lexus and Scion. According to Toyota literature, its Torrance operations presently employs 6,156 workers and represents a $2.3-billion investment.
Workers in Toyota's Torrance offices were abuzz about the possible relocation to Texas. One young offspring of a Toyota employee even posted to Twitter that her parents warned about the upcoming move, and she said she's refusing to go.
Rumors at one point had Toyota settling in Richardson, TX, just outside Plano. But Autoblog talked to Richardson Mayor Laura Maczka, who said she would be thrilled if that were true, but has not heard anything on the subject. Autoblog also emailed with Bill Sutherland, a city councilman in Torrance, CA, who said, "To date the only info I have is what I have read in the paper expecting a press release Monday."
Sports 800 is a progenitor of Toyota performance
Tue, 18 Nov 2014There's an automotive axiom that claims it's more fun to drive a slow car fast, than a fast car slow. If that's the case, then pushing a Toyota Sports 800 around must be one of the most exhilarating experiences behind the wheel in the world. With just 800cc of displacement from a two-cylinder boxer engine, the focus is on finesse over outright speed. Still, it's a fantastic page in Toyota's performance history, and Petrolicious takes a ride with a man who owns a meticulously restored 1967 example in its latest video.
The Sports 800 used the classic cost-saving strategy in the auto industry of taking parts from a standard model in the lineup and modifying it into a sports car. In this case that meant borrowing the engine from the plebian Toyota Publica, beefing it up for more power and clothing the whole thing a in beautifully shaped, wind-tunnel-honed body.
The look of these lithe, targa roadsters is the exact opposite of the rather dull styling sometimes associated with Toyota today. Everywhere you look there are louvers, vents or curves to draw the eye. Check out the latest Petrolicious video for a detailed look at the history of this rare model that's largely unknown on this side of the Pacific.
Ever wonder how to really pronounce Japanese automaker names?
Thu, 25 Sep 2014People tend to get very set in their ways when it comes to the pronunciation of words. Just look at the endless debates over whether or not to say the final 'e' in Porsche (which you should in terms of correct German enunciation). Or the argument about whether to follow the British convention and give the 'u' in Jaguar a special delivery or to say the 'ua' diphthong as more of a 'w' sound, as usually happens in the US.
This short video doesn't answer either of those automotive questions, but it does allow a native Japanese speaker to demonstrate the accepted pronunciations for several, major automakers from the country. One benefit is that it clears up the occasional debate over whether Nissan should be said with a long or short 'i' sound. Also, listen closely to how the female host says Mazda as Matsuda, the way it's actually said in the language. Even if this doesn't change the way you enunciate these brands, at least now you know the accurate way in Japanese.
