Talking TRD Sc 3.4l

Hello. I have a TRD SC (the gray one) that was off of my 2000 prerunner with 50k and had it rebuilt (evrything inside is NEW) by Magnuson (they build them for TRD). There was nothing wrong with it in the first place, I just wanted to to give the new owner a piece of mind. Have receipt from Magnuson. Comes with one year parts warranty effective the day you install it. It is still boxed from Magnuson ready to go. Asking $1250 shipped. Thanks.

How much did it cost you to get it overhauled?

I have a gray one that has 120,000 miles on it and I think it is getting do for one.

I wish I had the money...

Sorry man, I don't know why people aren't jumping on this.

The 1st gen and 2nd gen are basically the same unit. The HP and torque gains are the same, though some say that the 2nd gen gives a bit more 'cause it runs a bit cooler 'cause of the casting.

Remember we're paying to "liberate" Iraq from their oil too.

I can't speak for everyone else, but I would rather spend $1500 on a 300+ hp Vortec V-8... I know, I'm an a-hole for bringing it up.

Heck, for the price of a brand new one, (~3k) you could REALLY go wild.

But, there's something to be said for factory warrantee.

I think the word "rebuilt" scares a lot of people - in any situation. Take cars for sale for example, no matter what, when I see "rebuilt _______" in the description, a huge red flag goes up for me. It's just a natural reaction.

Maybe a little of that is going on here...

That is really a assinine thing to say. Why in the world would you say such a thing?

Any oil coming out of Iraq is being sold on the open market at current market prices and that money is going right back to rebuild Iraq.
