proud owner of a 1992 runner!
hey guys after reading these forums religiosly for the past 9 months (when I frst got the yota bug =P) I managed to save enough money to buy the right Toyota at the right price. She's got ur typical yota rust and came with new 31" tires, Bluetooth support , iPod hookup and even a plug in cooler! Best part I only paid $1000 its a 1992 v6 4x4 auto 3.0l with 266,000km , drives like a beauty too
First thing I wanna change is the rusty muffler and tail pipe, any suggestions on what to get?

Welcome to the Wide World of YOTATECH!
Exhaust choices are endless...I've owned ultraflow(dynomax) with my 3.0 and flowmaster with my 3.4 and like them both. There are a bunch of videos demonstrating the sound choices but it's always best to hear it in person....

Borla turbo muffler sounds amazing on the 3.0 sounds nice and throaty. youll like it. theres vids on youtube you can hear it but they dont do it much justice. then just have a shop run the new pipes, i think 2 1/2- 3 inch even would be ok if you keep your cat on, without the cat id go below 3 inch to help keep back pressure.

BC is the place to be! heres a bit of an update, made some fender flares out of landscape edging and got a hood visor. I also bought a spare tire carrier from a 1992 4runner (the toyota made ones) 100$ at a junk yrd. Gonna put fresh paint then put it on after i install a steel backing plate into the tailgate~
