Flygtenstein

Well holy cow. As one of the first to doubt since there were no engine pics, I will say well done.

Vato Loco

Damn! Thats all I got to say, any 1/4 mile times?

TeamShiftPoint

thanks Flygtenstein.

Vato Loco, I just brought my 4runner (grey one) to the track this Sunday...
90 4runner with trd s/c stock boost. nothing in the truck, except whatevers stock. I ran only 16 flat.... I expected high 15's


my cousin drove my truck at the track. he said the smaller pulley that he has really does make alot of difference. I'm gonna get my smaller pulley, and I'll post some better times.

we haven't brought his car to the track yet, his car is heavier then mine, brush guard in front, 2 sub system and amps in the back.
we weighed mine at the track and it was close to 4600 with 1/2 tank of gas.

TeamShiftPoint

depends who's doing the labor. all of the labor was done ourself. pulling the old motor, dropping in the new one. we wired it, so we didnt need to purchase a harness. exhaust we did.

motor, parts, etc... will cost whatever the market price where you live. we got good deals on the 3 motors that we used. all of them where complete swaps with all the accessories, taken out of the donor once we paid.

new parts (mounts, seals, etc..) we got from Champion Toyota (previously Jay Marks) in Houston.

very cool, thanks a lot make me wanna swap my engine out. nice job looks like you have a nice workshop.

TeamShiftPoint

yea....look at the tranny build pics...got the shop just to build the trannies. the walls and ground were still bare. I don't even think we had a tool chest or lift in there yet.

the 1st 4runner swap was done in my cousin's driveway!!
the truck was done over at my friends airplane hanger...
my 4runner was mostly done on my cousin's driveway....and wired up and exhaust done at my shop.

the grille on the white 3rd gen is sweet... how is that done?

Yoter

What he said! My jaw fell to the frikkin floor man. Nice nice nice.

fiveofeen

i wouldnt put a blower near these 3.0's headgaskets are not fun to replace

TeamShiftPoint

its my cousin's uncles 4runner. I believe 00 or 01. it use to be maroon/red color. it was wrecked pretty bad by the previous owner but it still had a clear title. got it for really cheap with about 60k miles. limited 2wd auto.

we fixed and got it repainted pearl white w/ PPG paints. came out to under 10k total for the parts, repair labor, and the cost of the truck itself. replaced rear quarter panel and part of the roof, passenger fender, grill, etc...hookup on bodywork and paint.

isn't that grill the stock one??? we bought the grill from an aftermarket body parts place.

Why dont you come pick up my truck and bring it back with a powerplant like yours

TeamShiftPoint

the superchargers were regular internet price for forum sponsors (carson toyota in cali.- tundrasolutions sponsors, i think they are on ttora also.)
i think it was 2070 shipped for the s/c with trd boost gauge and pod. 2nd gen s/c with the autotensioner for the belt (not the old gray colored TRD s/c)

rimpainter.com

First of all, great work! I have some questions though...

What type of fuel/timing mods have you guys done? Especially with that 14psi truck...

TeamShiftPoint

all 3 trucks run very well, no pings, no problems with fuel. replaced stock fuel filters. stock injectors.

the motors and ECU's we used are all from 99 4runners and tacoma, the model year in which toyota had already fixed the issue about fuel with trd supercharger.

we are also using denso iridium spark plugs per the recommendations of TRD if there was pinging. we werent pinging but we used the spark plugs anyway.

the red 4runner has walbro 190lph fuel pump (only got that cause of the problems Gadget had, my cousin was doing his first swap so he didnt want to encounter any problems, he had to go with recommendations of ppl who had problems)
stock injectors, he does have a Apexi S'AFC but its not currently being used to control fuel (he thought he needed it once he put on the 14psi pulley but he hasnt used it yet)
my cousin said that that fuel pump and split second, and whatever Gadget had reommended along time ago was not needed.

93 truck, stock everything (injectors, fuel pump, stock ecu fuel maps)
same with my grey 4runner.

we hooked up the our OBDII laptop software (autoenginuity) to monitor the fuel and everything...there were no problems.

96LtdYota

no, i dont think that grille is stock.. i want it

kevin444

alll i can say is impressive. Ive bet the 1st gen with a supercharged 3.4 can be quite quick!.

TeamShiftPoint

its the stock one from the 01-02 4runner.
the 96-00 is different, not sure if you are able to do a grill swap...

TeamShiftPoint

that 87? truck that i posted pics of...its quick...also geared correctly.
had stock 22re turbo. he swapped it himself, custom-made motor mounts.
thanks to Todd, gave us alot of useful technical info on the swap when we were doing our first swap. shared several tips with each other also.

That grill is from an 01 or 02 4runner. It's a direct swap to a 96-00. I have one in red. They come in chrome, red, black, green, silver, and pearl white. About $110 from your dealer. You'll also need a front oval for about another $40. The earlier ones won't fit on this grill.

You can't see mine for the lights in front of it, but here's one on Brian's 00 that he put on there when he was de-chroming it.
