  1999 Toyota 4Runner has a brand new 2.2 liter Kubota V-2203 direct injection engine installed. Has about 4k miles on the swap. Runs perfect, had a brand new automatic transmission replaced in the truck 10,000 miles before the swap was done, so has roughly 14,000 miles on the tranny now. *(I have 5 speed manual swap avail, see below)* The tranny has been modified to be shifted manually now. No, there is no clutch, it is still the new automatic trans, you just move the gear shifter from 1st, to 2nd, to D, then OD. Runs down the freeway at 70 mph and gets about 40+ miles a gallon. The best I've gotten from a tank was 49 miles a gallon. You can google Kubota V-2203 engine, you will see why I chose this of all options to choose for a good swap. It is used by John Deere, Bobcat,Carrier, Kohler Gensets...ect. They are a "Continuous Duty" engine built to run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Everything on the engine is mechanical, the simplicity of these engines are fully responsible for how long they run.  They are typically pulled out of service on reefer trucks with over 30,000 hours of run time,  if you averaged 40 miles an hour of driving speed, thats almost 2 million miles of service!  From the manufacture, glow plugs are only required in sub artic conditions, negative -32 degrees.  There is a set on the head, installed and new, but never had power to them.  Last winter I started it at just below freezing after sitting all night long outside, and fired right up instantly, as if it were 90 degrees out. I do have listed for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction early. 

***INCLUDED WITH BUY IT NOW***
 I have a very nice 5 speed 4x4 factory Toyota transmission, with T-Case, pedal assy, slave cylinder, with slave master, interior center console trim, all with 45k miles on it, came from 3.4 V6. new bosch clutch kit with throw out bearing.  And if bought, and paid in full, will install free of charge, and will have it completed within 7 days of payment received, or I will just give you all of it, if you wanted to sell it, and keep it an automatic.   Probably worth $2k as a complete swap for someone looking.  Will also deliver to anywhere on the West 1/2 of the United States free of charge.  Feel free to email me with any ?'s at Craig.craig11@yahoo.com  These are the "Buy It Now" price only offers.  Thanks for looking,

The outside of the truck is in nice shape, paint shines up still really well.  interior is really nice, clean with small rip in drivers side seat seam. All lights, airbag system, new tires. 4x4 works. has aftermarket oil and boost gauge.  I'm going to get some videos up soon of driving in traffic so you can see how well it performs. The exhaust in the video sounds a lot louder than it really is in perfect.  Really quiet in the truck driving.

Toyota confirms i-Road electric trike for production

Tue, 08 Oct 2013

The wacky, three-wheeled Toyota i-Road we saw in Geneva earlier this year will be heading to production. But before you run down to your local Toyota dealer looking for one of these all-electric "personal mobility" vehicles, chances are, you'll never actually see one unless you visit Japan.
Announced at the Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technologies (CEATEC) expo last week, Toyota said that the i-Road would be used as a part of the Ha:Mo car-sharing system in Japan. Weighing in at around 661 pounds, with a 28-mile-per-hour top speed and a two-passenger seating arrangement, the i-Road seems more like a fully enclosed scooter than a car, but it does offer a 30-mile driving range and has a nifty articulating front suspension that leans into corners. As for Ha:Mo, Toyota says that the number of cars in the program will increase from 10 prior to October 1 to 100 by the middle of this month, and the number of stations will almost double from 13 up to 21. Toyota has more details about the car and Ha:Mo in the press release posted below.

Hi-po Toyota GT86 to get KERS?

Fri, 09 Nov 2012

We happen to like the Toyota GT86 - and, it of course goes without saying that the same applies to the Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S, as well - just the way it is. Yes, that includes the standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder boxer engine and its 200 horsepower at 7,000 rpm.
That said, a little extra power never hurt anybody, right?
The most obvious way to add some punch to the GT86 would be with a turbocharger, and that has indeed long been rumored for an STI version of the BRZ. Will Toyota follow suit? According to Top Gear, the answer is no. Says GT86 chief engineer Tetsuya Tada, "I think 300bhp with a turbo and 200g/km of CO2 would be tasteless in this day and age. And a turbo would mean the loss of the GT86's uniqueness." Perhaps a bit harsh, but there you go.

Despite slow sales, no new Scion models in near-term pipeline [w/poll]

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

According to a top Toyota executive, the Japanese automaker will not be introducing any fresh Scion models in the near future, Reuters reports. As of August, Scion sales for this year were down 1.6 percent from 2012 and accounted for only 0.3 percent of Toyota's overall US sales. And last month, Toyota Motor Sales USA Senior Vice President Bob Carter informed the 1,000 dealers who carry Scion that they can drop the brand without penalty.
However, never fear - Carter has assured that, while nothing new is coming for at least six months, the company is still very committed to the quirky Scion brand. Toyota launched Scion, which targets the youth market, in 2003, and sales peaked in 2006. The brand currently has five models, with the 2013 best-sellers being the FR-S sports coupe followed by the tC sedan and xB hatchback.
What do you think about Toyota's decision to hold off on introducing new or refreshed Scion models? Are they heading in the right direction, or does this spell doom for the funky Gen Y brand?
