Yup, the stock springs on 4Runners are notoriously soft. I bought the TRD Pro trim because I don't like making vehicle modifications, but even I had to toss the "TRD-tuned" springs for stiffer Eibachs. It made a huge difference. I love the ride now, on and off road.

Coudnt hear shit

Rly nice, imho 60k isn't all that bad for what this is. If you have a shop it's an insane advert if you bring it to a lot of events, but even as a particular, this is heading straight for unobtanium status within about a decade, all you gotta do is hold on to it and keep it clean and it's value might very well shot up to the moon.

What is your crankshaft set to when doing this? The manual calls for 60* BTDC to remove timing belt and pulleys, and to remove the cam shafts (section cylinder head removal) it refers to EM-16 timing belt removal at *60 BTDC. If I then set my cam gears to TDC while my crankshaft is still at *60 BTDC that’s obviously a big issue so I’m very confused on this part. 2jz-GE VVTI

Hi, did you also plug the exit line from the right valve cover? Where the smoke gets there from?

Can you share the Link or the PN for the block ?

how hard is the swap?

nice video, my 81' has quit...

Good Day, what transmission u running, is the front end heavier?

45k for a full on race car is not bad

8k for a gr86?? inportugal its about 30k🥲🥲 and the gt is around 50k even more expensive than a factory built...

Did you keep the same differential??

7k for brakes . Could have not spent 2k on headlights. Bam saved you 9k in 3 seconds. All jokes aside. Not many people can say they have really built a car to this level. That alone deserves respect. Not many people know the other side of the build where you finished what you started and can now enjoy the fruits of your labor. If you never build another car in your life this experience imho was 100% worth it. You are a smart guy and money will never be an issue. If you would have just bought a 911 or turn key car you would get bored of it and be in a continuous loop of buying the next thing. Instead you have something that will ALWAYS be a point of conversation and engagement anywhere you go that is car related. And that is priceless.

Hi there, if my speedo is reading slower, could that same kit possibly do the fix?

MARTIN BROOOHHHH FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS PAPA!! Espero todo vaya de maravilla, nos vemos en abril que estamos por allá con la flia. Abrazo enorme!!

If your gonna wreck it, total it! Bummer man. Cars come and go. On to the next.

Vacuum cleaner salesman??....

Looks great! Hoping to do this on my Mazda 6 wagon soon.

Thank you man, you've done a ton of work, you've got an interesting experience and you just answered all my questions!!😊

Noooo que triste hermano, estaba viendo tus videos y me doy cuenta que sos argentino, justo estaba pensando hacer el swap de mi 86😊

Did you experience any issues with low fuel?

I bought my 1985 380 SL 5 years ago w/ 72,000 miles, and the high idle issue. The replacement electronic box under the dash was the most expensive part I have had to replace at $325. I have changed the accumulator, belts, plugs, wires, distributor cap/ rotor, tires, injector seals, drivers window switch, battery, antenna, driving light bulbs and added a universal stainless steel exhaust with new cat and 02 sensor ( no muffler or resonator required). Cheap enough to maintain, fun to drive, and it sure turns heads with the black pearl over black interior.

Great video!

That’s cheaper than busing an MK4 and an MK5

What transmission

It’s an off road vehicle of course it’s going to have soft suspension. And yea it’s not the best on fuel but then again it’s a heavy vehicle but much more reliable than any dodge you can buy

Hey como lograste que el cluster funcione tengo ese problema estoy haciendo un scion frs con un 2jz pero quiero que todo quede funcionando

Did you have to make any modifications to the engine bay (cutting or welding) to fit the engine and transmission?

bro said 🤑🤑 hyyy one day Ill build something like that, thank you for sharing 🙏🏽

Thanks for showing the bolts inside the bell housing access cover. From working on other cars I knew those must exist but even the factory repair manual seems really vague about them.

Awesome video!

This isn’t a swap cost video…this is a build list for that EXACT setup plenty of way to save here 😮 kinda of clickbait

What’s the difference between a VVTI and a Non-VVTI?

What’s the difference between a VVTI and a Non-VVTI?

Does the paddle shifter still work

Whats your whp?

Im trying this method as the servive manual says, however when i try to oreintate the cams for the the 4 o clock and 8 o clock position, the valves feel like they're interfering with the pistons?

Anything that brings you joy if you have the expendable funds and most importantly isn't hurting anyone is worth it!!! ✌🏽❤️✊🏽😁

You’re a joke how do you crash you were automatic transmission too even more embarrassing lmaoooo

Too bad the car has no style reps and all smh

glad you're back on your feet and moving forward man, much love .

Just when I thought we were going to see how to change the blades ... ZOOM!

Amigo suerte y que puedas volver a subirte en tu sueño. Yo tengo uno armado he tenido un par de problemas pero nada grave. Aún no logro comprender cual fue tu error o que paso para que accidentes

It’s a great video for anyone that’s is new to the four runner family… All the comments will help a new owner make a wise decision base on what they like.

oh no, l just came across your channel. Your build and story was inspiring

HEY! would love to know the name or brand of the orange tool you used on the sump pan :D

Ofcourse you wear gloves while getting gas 😂. This all makes sense now.

I'll take it off your hands bro. It deserves a home where it will be appreciated.
