The last dyno run showed 325 ft/lbs of torque to the wheels with a perfect A/F ratio.

I can't wait to take this baby out and see what she can do. I think the first mod will be an upgraded VB followed by powder coated rims (too much bling.)

More PICS

 

Couple motor shots...

 

daaang. you sir are one lucky mofo. great score yoda! was that a local rig? and what were they askin?

cant see any more moddin' possible to that thing haha...

 

wow that thing is beautiful. good snag! gonna wheel it!?

 

Nice... NOW I know what that engine pic was for!

 

Holy crap that thing is awsome!

I retrospect I should have gone with a LC and held out for a dual factory locker model.

 

Thanks all! I'm pretty stoked.

It was in Shoreline, near Seattle, so I had to do a little driving to get it.
The rig was actually built and maintained by Toyota of Seattle (they were trying a new market). The owner used it for a while, then the General Service manager bought it. Every little item that has been done to it was performed by the dealership and documented. He gave me two, 2" thick folders with all paperwork, reciepts, dyno/tuning runs, etc. At dealer cost they easily had over $15,000 in extra parts alone.

He was asking $21,000 when I found it, and I got him dowm to $19,000. It booked out at $14,125, so I basically paid for the turbo and got everything else for free. Heck it even came with 6 matching wheels and tires. Tires only have 3000 miles on them. Tranny was also replaced at 60k and is still under warranty.

For modding it defintiely needs a VB upgrade, (and I thought the 4Runner autos were bad.... sheesh) and the bling wheels have to go. Besides that, I'm pretty set with how it is right now.

I plan to. It needs to get dirty SOON or it may end up like my 4Runner, too pretty to wheel. I should just go key it and get it over with. The first scratch always hurts the worse.

 

Niiiiiiice :bounce2:
Gonna take it out amongst the Tamerack soon?

 

Hopefully this weekend, if not sooner. The local ORV park is calling my name....

 

sweet find! so with that long-range tank... you can go..... 400 miles?

...just kiddin. looks like a very nice vehicle.

 

NO LIKE 425!!!!!!

Its pretty funny that you said that because that was the first thought I had.

Land Cruiser + $800 "long range" fuel cell = $125 fill ups to barely make it accross town SAWEEET!

 

looks sweet but please ditch the chrome wheels and put some tint on it
