Dream rig-My runner, sas, exo, 3.4, chopped, bobbed, and a removable soft top so its like a first gen.

Dream CAR-Either 240sx hatch, sr20det swap, silvia front end conversion. Or a Datsun 510 with an sr20det swap, a lowered but stock looking sleeper.
Either one would make me happy

I'll tell you when I get done building it...wait, you're never done building your dream rig because no matter what you do, you can always think of something else you need or want.

Ok... my dream truck.

Starting with the 86 4x4 longbed I have now: Currently with 5.29's and a rear truetrac, 30" tires...

-Find and swap in a similar year double cab, Mexico is nearby and there has to be SOME way to import one...

-TC Caddy long travel kit and a truetrac for the front as well

-4.3 Vortec Chevy V6 with aluminum heads, (for lighter weight) upgraded for about 225hp - on 87 octane gas.

- SM465 4spd mated via adapter to the stock transfer case **edit: I take that back, advance adapters has an adapter to swap in a NV4500. I'll go with that.**

- 35x12.5 15 Truxus Mud Terrains

- (AFTER getting way better at welding) Homemade front and rear bumpers

- 6k lbs winch

- bob the front of the bed so the wheelwell lines up with the rear tire


SO, does anyone know of anyone that's importing old toyota Double Cab's to the US?

dream rig is my truck for rocks and another 89-95 yota for jumping and another heavily improved stockish yota for daily driving.

first yota would be a rock build
1993 toyota pickup tube chassis, 5.3 chevy v8 stock bolted to a munsi? 4 speed, rockwell 2.5 tons, arb air lockers, extremely ridiculously low gears, only a cab, tube bed, 49 inchish rubber all the goodies.

second for jumping
89-95 yota idk much about long travel yet but either a homemade total chaos style rig or a heavily modified ttb set up with a supercharged 6.0 or...if theres a new spra out by the time im making money that motor. build it to be koh type race ready, practise like crazy go race koh get stomped go back a year after and start getting better haha. i want only toyota enthusiasts to be able to look at this truck and say "hey that used to be a 93 toyota pickup"

my daily driver for up north and all that fun stuff and just the cool factor.
roughly 3 inch sas with stock built yota front axle
custom bumpers front and rear
lce 22re
double tcases
5.29 gears
37's
all new interior
custom flat bed

idk i could go on for hours but thats my dream list right there just not too detailed. my dream rig could never be one truck

That FJ cruiser is sick and I love the hilux double cab!!! One day I would love to SAS my 1998 tacoma and run 35's or 37's. Or get an FJ cruiser like the red one. I'd pull them to Moab with a 2004 supercharged v8 tundra. The tundra would have a moderate lift, wheels, 33 mud terrains. Front bumper. Hopefully I can do this one day....
