First Thing I must say ive owned this Land cruiser for about 2 years and have been slowly fixing it up . I have two other fj40s and would like to make space for them.

4 new wheel cylinders , shoes , drum , hardware , calipers , pads , rotors
Also has power brakes and steering with brand new ball joints all around
Smitty built 8000 lb Winch with warn winch plate works perfect with controls that run inside
Last year they came with the rounded grill
Fully redone Interior !! over 2000 alone was spent With Tan and light brown soft leather
The front seats are recline able  and all in practically perfect condition And the the door cards an even the dash has been redone as well all in Leather!
Paint and body work is about a month old , looks great but has some minor flaws over 1500 spent

Frame is solid as they get, body all rust has been removed and repaired with fiberglass except mentioned spots ,where the hard top meets the body on the inside could use some minor rust repair but I have put silicone and painted over you cant tell unless you look for it
The Toyota runs Very good . No smoke or knocking . it's very fast and tranny is as tight as you can get no leaks  
 Has rare factory Auto locking hubs ,4x4 works perfect , 4wd on the fly !2H,4H,N,4L
All original axles and suspension in great shape and has rear end locker,  2 inch Shackle lift kit

Also has new door gaskets all around so when you shut the door its solid no rattle  and rear ambulance style doors in back as well
Very clean and it's the neck breaker where ever you drive . its an old school japan 4x4 but chevy powered whats not to love                                              Has brand new Tachometer ,oil pressure, temp, volt Gauges working perfect. Gas gauge works but has bad sending unit , Spedo dosent because the auto transmission, but you can get an external mph gauge to use with the turbo 400.

All the lights work perfect , even the turn singals work,high beams, License plate ,have upgraded to 2006 jeep wrangler headlight conversion for better lighting and rear led brake lights as well. The rear quarter panel marker lamps need redoing I just have the lenses on right now .

It Also has a new custom steering shock ,FJ cruiser oem 17inch steelies with 75percent tires w nitrogen ,

Due to the location the previous owner put the chevy power steering box the front left shock would need a bracket made for the top of the shock to bolt to. I have a brand new shock for it and have a diagraph of the bracket with specs and location of a fabrication shop , the cost would be from you but I can have it done if its detrimental. I drive it all around town and the suspension is heavy duty you can barely tell ,

I reserve the right to stop the posting if the vehicle is sold local . My name is Daniel give me a txt or call 954-439-2576 if you had any questions

Toyota brings TRD Griffon GT86 to Goodwood [w/video]

Fri, 12 Jul 2013

In the midst of the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed, there's a particularly special Toyota running up the hill. This special entry is a GT86 (the cousin to our Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ) that's been poked, prodded, and tweaked by the minds at Toyota Racing Development. The result of TRD's fettling is a nearly race-ready car.
Starting with the body, the hood, doors, trunk lid, and wings are all made of carbon fiber. The lightweight treatment doesn't end there, though. The bumpers, fenders, and diffuser all feature carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic, while the windows are now made of polycarbonate plastic.
Under the hood sits the same 2.0-liter boxer engine found in the standard GT86, but its six-speed manual gearbox features a shorter final drive ratio for improved acceleration. The coilover suspension has been firmed up, and a TRD mechanical limited-slip differential replaces the Torsen unit. The TRD Griffon rides on TWS 18-inch wheels and Yokohama Advan tires. To bring proceedings to a stop, TRD has fitted its own mono-block caliper kit, complete with more robust racing pads.

Toyota makes $100M investment to boost Indiana Highlander production

Mon, 25 Aug 2014

Toyota has announced that it will be making a $100 million investment in its Princeton, IN factory in a bid to increase production of its popular Highlander CUV. The move will create 300 new jobs by 2016 and increase the total number of crossovers the plant can produce by 30,000.
Toyota currently builds the Highlander, alongside the fullsize Sequoia, at Toyota Indiana's West Plant. The additional capacity, though, will be sent to the East Plant, which is currently responsible for production of the recently refreshed Sienna minivan.
"The Highlander has been a great product for our plant," Toyota Indiana President Norm Bafunno said in a statement. "Establishing Highlander as the 'bridge vehicle,' as we call it, between the East and West plants increases our ability to meet customer needs for our outstanding products. This exciting news is a true testament to the capability of our hard-working and dedicated team members."
