So eventually my 4runner is going to need the engine rebuilt or replaced it has been knocking for a good 20xxx miles and is going to blow any day i feel. i found a shop locally called Japanese Auto Engines in Tacoma Wa and they seem to have the best prices as far as labor for install and price of engine. just wondering if anybody has used them before or would recommend a place to get my replaced or to buy a re man at. i would prefer to have the engine installed by the shop due to my work schedule. any suggestions would be great thanks. I forgot to mention it has a 22re in it.

Don't know where you are in WA but NW Team Yota is great in my experience.

I live in puyallup and ill have to check them out their website isn't working on my phone for some reason. Did you have them install the engine?

I didn't have them install an engine but they've worked on my truck and seem to do a decent rebuild/install business. I'd trust them to rebuild and install personally but that is just me. Their website uses Flash so it won't work on an iPhone.

I got a reman 3.slow at Japanese auto awhile back and so far so good the mechanics have lots if experience with yota engines and they have a good warranty.
Okay thanks for the info they seem to be the best price out of every place I called so far. How many miles do you have on the engine?

I had them install it. I'm not that mechanically inclined they tune it and flush everything and its my dd so I just wanted it running again. I got reman everything cause my head Had major scoring and was just blown out and not usable again.
Ya I can't decide if I wanna attempt to put in my self or just pay them and just get it done that way I don't have to think about it. But thanks for the info I appreciate it.
