TRD 160 degree thermostat

I wanted to help throw some info out their that may help out. The TRD thermostat for the 3.4 is no longer available. It was too expensive anyway. But I'm almost positive I found the company who made it for TRD. I have also found the generic part number, and it's far cheaper than the TRD one was. It's a motorad part number 281-160. Hope this helps.

Awesome! Thanks! I did find the 170 thermo also part number 281-170.

I'm finding that all of the TRD supercharger items for the 3.4l are being discontinued. In addition I was told by Bob the TRD product specialist that Toyota and TRD have abandoned all current and supercharger products and will no longer be offering them.

Wow really?! So all those people who have bought toyota vehicles and have spent thousands on upgrades through TRD are now going to be treated as if these products never existed? So much for loyalty to your customers. Thats pretty low.

That is what I was told on Monday this week. I have his phone number in a previous thread.

I was hesitant to say anything and stir the pot up.

Toyota is moving away with the TRD superchargers, but the company that originally manufactured the superchargers will still be making them. Minus the TRD logo though. They can be found here: https://www.lceperformance.com/Produ...Code=7015249-1
