This is a very nice, original FJ45 that is daily driven with 178K on the clock. I searched long and hard to find this truck, and I sincerely hope somebody that truly appreciates them wins the auction. Mechanically, it needs nothing that I`m aware of and I drive it regularly, sometimes daily. I will say that at one point last month after driving in downtown traffic for almost an hour of stop and go, I think I felt the clutch slipping in 3rd gear. I have driven it more than a few times since then, but have not noticed it. I did order a new clutch (stock) from Cruiser Corps. and it will go with the truck. If you're familiar with these, you know how difficult it is to find a left hand drive late model truck like this in the US that isn't rusty. My best guess is that this truck was rust proofed at the dealer when new, because the frame and floors are in excellent shape. The body has a few places here and there, but as far as FJs go, this truck is nice and is definitely not a "rust case" and never has been. The engine is strong, transmission (4-speed) is great but if you're looking to go to the drag strip you might want to consider another vehicle. The steering is tight, brakes are great and everything works as it should (even the dome light) The BFG all terrains are in great shape, with far more than 50% tread life.

This will be my second time in ten years selling a vehicle on Ebay, so if my ad/format reads goofy, my apologies. I will gladly accommodate shipping to any location you choose (on your dime) I doubt any sensible person would want to drive much more than a few hundred miles in this tank, but schedule permitting I will pick you up or meet you at true airport here in Atlanta.

This FJ was imported originally from Canada, but has been registered here in the south for many years and has current tag and registration. In Ga. they don't need a title on anything older than 1986 and will be sold with a bill of sale. If your state requires a title, let me know and I'll do my best to work out getting one for you.

How to fix a $4,000 hybrid battery problem with vinegar and baking soda

Wed, Feb 18 2015

This is one of those 'Don't try this at home if you don't know what you're doing' DIY tales. Two weeks after imgur user "scoodidabop" bought a used Toyota Camry Hybrid with no warranty, he got the Christmas Tree dash display with warnings like "Check VSC System," "Check Hybrid System," and the Check Engine light. After some Internet sleuthing he figured it could be a faulty brake actuator, assuming the hybrid system warning was a false alarm. But it wasn't the actuator, it was the battery, a Toyota dealer telling him that his battery had "gone bad," and he'd need $4,457 to replace it. Then he had a brainstorm: it could be one of the cells that's gone bad, not the whole battery. Scoodidabop has some experience as an electrician, so he figured he could test it and replace any bad cells for about $45 apiece. He removed the battery unit from the trunk and over the course of two hours tested all 68 cells four times. He found nothing wrong. So he devised another type of test and checked every cell again. He couldn't find a problem with any of them. Turns out the problem wasn't in the cells, but with the dirty and corroded copper connectors at the ends of the high-voltage cables. He pulled the 34 connectors and their steel nuts, soaked them in vinegar, gave them a light steel wool scrub, soaked them in baking soda and water to counteract the vinegar, applied an anticorrosive and reinstalled them. That took an hour. When he replaced the battery, the warning lights had all gone out and the battery worked perfectly. Skill level: experience. Cost: less than $10. Perhaps it's time for hybrids to be able to test their own cells individually. Dealers, too.

Watch this video diary of a 900-hp Toyota Supra build

Sat, 08 Jun 2013

If you've ever looked at a car with nearly 1,000 horsepower and wondered why anyone needs that amount of thrust, you may want to take a look at the video below. In it, one gentleman details his descent into Toyota Supra madness, starting with a pristine factory example and stumbling down the rabbit hole of modification. What makes this particular clip interesting is just how honest the owner is as he explains the evolution of his car. He doesn't just prattle off a list of parts like he's reading the menu at an IHOP.
Instead, he painstakingly pulls us through the car's growth, detailing each iteration and what pushed him to the next stage of the build every time. From this point of view, it looks less like someone walked into a shop and lit a massive stack of $100 bills on fire and more like a quasi-logical progression of events. Or at least it does to me. You can check out the build in the video below, complete with plenty of Fast and the Furious references and racing. Win, win, win.
