Toyota Landcruiser BJ60 conversion, This is a very nice conversion onto a FJ60 frame and body of the same year. I bought the original BJ60 Turbo Diesel in Canada that had a rusted out frame and body, But has very low miles on exceptional running gear, ( only 132,xxx miles on it ). I had a clean FJ60 i purchased to fix up a bit for a hunting and camping rig, But decided to do a complete conversion onto the FJ60 rather than try to repair the frame and body of the BJ60. So the FJ60 got completely striped down to shell sitting on frame, With every thing out of the interior, seats, doors, carpet, dash, wiring harnes, seat belt, And the frame striped clean of all axles ,springs, brake lines, fuel lines. In preperation for cleaning, repainting, and installing new nuts and bolts where the old ones where worn. All the running gear from the BJ60 was installed onto the frame using new mounts, nuts, and bolts. Then the interior was all cleaned and the using the best of both was reinstalled into the new conversion.
The motor and drive train have only 132,xxx miles on them and are in great shape. It runs and drives great and is a lot of fun to drive, It gets 30+ miles to the gallon in the freeway, And in the upper twentys around town. The motor is a Toyota 3BT Turbo Diesel, With a 5 Speed transmision, with a manuel transfer case. It runs smooth and quite.Goes down the road super nice and straight, Very smooth with no problems
The frame is in near perfect condition, Just the normal dirt and road grime on it from 30 years, So it was cleaned and recoated with the spray on under coater and it looks nice and clean for the most part, I didn't go crazy on it cause it didn't need it.
The axles are out of the low miles BJ60 and were cleaned, sanded and repainted before reinstalling, they are in great shape with newer brakes. The hubs, rotors, pads, and linings all are in great shape.
The Cruiser has new Old Man Emu 3 inch lift springs up front that are the right ones for the extra weight of the diesel, It also has a shackel reversal kit installed up front, There are lift springs in the rear and a 2 inch body lift to clear the tires and what ever else you need to go over.
The tires are 33 inch BFG all terrains and the front tires have 80% to 85% tread, The rear tires a brand new, And the spare is a match and has 80% to 85% tread in it, And the spare is mounted underneath in the rear.
The body was in good shape with only minor dents and minor rust in the rear wheel wells, I do body and paint work so the repair on the body was easy with just a couple minor dent repairs, The rust was removed and refiberglassed, Its been completely repainted including the door jams, useing quality products, It has 3 coats of epoxy primer, 4 coats of urethane base coat, And 4 coats urethane clear top coat. It looks very nice and should hold up for years to come.
Over all this Landcruiser is in very exellent condition, ( 9 out of 10 ) with no problems and will be a lot of fun for years to come!

Scion pondering move upmarket?
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Scion is simultaneously celebrating its ten-year anniversary with the 10 Series models and trying to figure out what to do with itself over the next ten years. Once a go-to consideration for young, first-time buyers who wanted something cool and different, in 2013 it has a model everyone is still talking about in the FR-S, a model few are still talking about in the iQ, and three models in between in the tC, xB and xD that make everyone wonder, "What happened?"
Automotive News spoke to Toyota's North American CEO, Jim Lentz - he was the VP in charge of Scion when it launched - about the options, and Lentz said one of them could be a move upmarket to challenge the established luxury brands that are moving downmarket. "There's going to be a big need in the $25,000 range for a fun-to-drive, nice-looking, value-oriented product," he said, and the FR-S, which starts at $25,255, could provide the platform for Scion to climb up a notch or two in price and perception. An idea like this could conceivably work in tandem with a proposal to move entry-level Scion products over to the Toyota brand - but remember, this is all just ideas on a whiteboard at the moment.
As opposed to an "entry-luxury fighter," the brand could swing back to the other option that was considered when it was formed, directly challenging the Korean makes that have usurped its cachet with first-time buyers. Lentz said Scion could go either way, and the tone of the piece seems to indicate that the final direction is still a ways away from being resolved.
Toyota 86 most likely to get more power through more displacement? [w/poll]
Wed, 21 Aug 2013The Sydney Morning Herald has spoken to Tetsuya Tada, chief engineer of the Toyota 86 (our version of it, the Scion FR-S, is pictured above), and they've been promised that more power is on the way. We've heard a lot of speculation about a more powerful Toyobaru since before the standard model was even launched. The only question now is how the power will be delivered, and among the engine concepts we've already heard about - turbo, supercharger, twin-charged, hybrid - is a new one: more displacement.
Tada said that an engine with more displacement than the current coupe's 2.0 liters is being tested alongside a turbocharged and a hybrid-assisted motor. The SMH cites "inside sources" as saying the displacement option is the one likely to get the go-ahead, and suggests increased bore and stroke will see the engine grow to 2.5 liters, horsepower to about 250 - a 50-hp increase over the present car.
While that's apparently the betting man's solution for the long-awaited increase in gumption, what happens with the next generation could be more wide open than we suspected. According to the report, Tada "hinted that [a successor] could be a radically different car, potentially dropping the boxer engine altogether." He said once they've sorted out the concept for the second generation car, then they'll sort out an engine. That's where a turbo option could come to market, perhaps the turbocharged four-cylinder Toyota is developing for the Lexus NX crossover or a hybrid system that uses a capacitor.
BMW, Toyota outline new tech joint venture, new sports car
Fri, 25 Jan 2013Back in June, Toyota and BMW announced a "memorandum of understanding" outlining plans for the two companies to join forces on future products and technology development. On Thursday, they signed a more formal and binding agreement that goes further into detail about the partnership, and it all sounds pretty exciting. The two announced they will work together in four main areas:
Joint development of a fuel cell system
"Set up a feasibility study to define a joint platform concept for a mid-size sports vehicle"
