Here is your chance to buy the legend. 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. 1982 - one of the most coveted years for FJ40's ever!! I can't believe I'm actually selling this bad boy. This may be one of your last chances to purchase such an awesome machine. These vehicles continue to climb in value and are getting harder and harder to find, especially in this type of condition. 

It has the original bulletproof inline six cylinder 2F motor with 134k original miles. It has an Aqualu aluminum tub that was installed about 8 or 9 years ago, according to the previous owner. Last year my Cruiser mechanic and I went through the entire motor and rebuilt and replaced a huge amount of parts. We replaced the front and rear motor mounts, radiator fan, all new heating, cooling, and emission hoses, rebuilt the carburetor and distributor, new spark plugs and wires, fuel pump, fixed all oil leaks and replaced gaskets and seals, replaced the clutch master cylinder, replaced the heater blower resistor (to enable the low fan setting for the heater). All OEM Toyota parts were utilized whenever possible.

In addition to the engine work, we also reupholstered the front seats with Cruiser Corps covers, provided a new dash cap cover, installed a new radio delete plate, replaced the brake, gas and clutch pedal pads, overhauled a new (used) set of 5 OEM Toyota rims with Toyota OEM paint and OEM Toyota chrome center caps, installed a brand new ARB front bumper with an overhauled Warn 8274 winch that works great, including new bumper gussets, installed a Man-a-Fre rear swing out tire carrier with cooler carrier, hitch and Hi-Lift jack attachment, aftermarket mirrors, OEM fuel cap, OEM rear seat straps, OEM Toyota emblems, rear heater lines, and jack and jack rod clips (I realize they were not ’82 specific but work and look great nonetheless). Tires are 31x10.5x15 BFG A/T with excellent tread, although the spare is fairly worn.

The Cruiser starts and runs great. The only known issues with the Cruiser are that the hardtop does have some spots of rust and needs a new headliner. I have a brand new headliner ready to install that will go with the Cruiser. The white on the hardtop is not OEM Toyota and will need to be updated to match the wheels and bezel. There is also a leak in the front driver side knuckle and I also have the rebuild kit that will also go with the Cruiser. I just didn’t have time to install. There is also a small leak between the transmission and transfer case that is very common with the FJ40’s.

I also have a lot of extra parts that will be included with the sale: Aqualu tailgate for when the ambulance doors are removed, fuel door cover with retainer bracket, bikini top with sunroof with all hardware, additional OEM radiator, aftermarket chrome front bumper, extra Toyota brown jack (for all you purists out there), OEM spare tire carrier (gray), radio antenna, aftermarket cup holder, Toyota touch up paint, and a box of additional nuts and bolts.

All in all this FJ40 is in great shape and turns heads wherever it goes. I have additional photos that I can email upon request. It is a 30+ year old vehicle and is in used condition and is being sold AS IS. I am only asking what I have invested in the Cruiser and it is a no reserve auction. Don’t miss your chance to own the last of one of the greatest vehicles ever made. Please email any questions prior to bidding. The vehicle is located in Northwest Colorado but could be delivered to the SLC or Portland, OR for an additional shipping fee. Please confirm prior to bidding. Please take care of my baby!!

Gazoo heads to the N"urburgring with Lexus LFA Code X

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

You'd be forgiven for thinking just because the Lexus LFA has ended its production run (it's been over a year now) that Toyota would have ceased its development. You'd be forgiven, but Gazoo Racing is here to tell you you'd still be wrong.
One of Toyota's many works racing teams, Gazoo is returning to the 24-hour endurance race at the Nürburgring this year with a trio of entries. One is based on the Toyota GT86 (which we know as the Scion FR-S), and one is essentially the same LFA that it's entered in years past. But the third vehicle is dubbed Code X.
It's also based on the LFA, but its 4.8-liter V10 engine has been bored out to 5.3 liters, raising its output to untold levels. It's got a full carbon-fiber chassis and a range of other enhancements that Gazoo isn't telling us about just yet, but they should turn the LFA Code X from a road-going supercar beyond a racecar and into a rolling research lab. Considering that Gazoo has been racing at the 'Ring since 2007 and fielding versions of the LFA there since 2008, it'll be interesting to see how the Code X version fares.

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.

2016 Toyota Mirai Fuel Cell Vehicle likely to get 60 MPGe

Tue, Nov 18 2014

Toyota isn't talking about the Mirai's fuel economy just yet, but that doesn't mean we can't make an educated guess. And we do so by looking at the competition and knowing that the DOE says that "One kg of hydrogen is roughly equivalent to one gallon of gasoline." For now, the Mirai's H2 competition means the 2015 Hyundai Tucson Fuel Cell. It can carry 5.64 kg of hydrogen and has a range of 265 miles. If we do the division there (265/5.64) we get 47 miles per gallon equivalent (MPGe). The DOE says that the miles/kg values are 49 combined, 48 in the city and 50 on the highway while Hyundai lists the official MPGe estimates as 50 combined, 49 city and 51 highway. The simple math gets us pretty close to these official numbers. Or take the 2014 Honda FCX Clarity. With a range of 231 miles and a max of 3.92 kg of hydrogen on board, division gets us to 59 MPGe. Officially, it's rated at 59 miles per kg (combined), with 58 in the city and 60 on the highway. In other words, simple math is a reliable way to calculate rough MPGe. So, we know that the Mirai can hold five kilograms of hydrogen on board and that the car has a 300-mile range. We don't even need a calculator to figure out that the Mirai is looking at 60 MPGe. Interestingly, that might be what the next-gen Prius will get.
