165K+ miles and modding?

If everything mechanically is good, then preformance upgrades are fine. I would suggest making sure everything is working well with the stock stuff first. Give it a good tune up and go from there. I think adding preformace iteams onto exsisting problems makes things difficult down the road.

If your Toyota engine dies at 170K, then it wasn't properly maintained. I have seen several toys go over 250K and all they had to do is keep up with regular maintanece(sp).

If the engine's been well maintained thus far, do it!

thanks for all the great inputs. I think I'm gonna keep it around for another 60k or so. I'm be doing some maintenance work first than some light modding.

My first yota (91 3.0 2wd p/u) had 268k when I sold it and it was running strong. I just got a 92 4runner with a 3.0 and 157k. I'm starting the mods as we speak!!
