ABANDONED Toyota Pickup - TURBO 2RZ swap - Part 1

In this video I take a beautiful 1988 Toyota pickup and completely transform it into a tire roasting turbo street truck. This old work truck started life as a carbureted 22r base model that had no options, with no power steering or air conditioning, no fuel injection, no radio, and no passenger mirror from the factory! I swap over the entire 2rz to the pickup. In an attempt to fix it I couldn't find an afforable stock replacement, but found a wrecked 1999 Toyota tacoma for $500 and figured out exactly what I wanted to do with the pickup. I completely stripped the tacoma down to a bare shell and started transferring everything possible to the 88' pickup.
by the end of part one I have both trucks stripped and I've started the long process of fitting all the new parts onto the old chassis. come along to finish the swap, boost the truck, and take it to the dyno and track!

Dude, that incredible you got mad skills. I never knew a 99 tacoma Dash would fit. I thought it would be a little bigger. I can't wait to see more on this 😁

[@dandorris8531]

Explanations on the process would help this channel, especially the final fitment of pan issues and motor mounts along with trans mounts.

[@redlineranch.]

There will be a part 2 and possibly part 3, I go into depth about the process

Not many people would go through(so far)what- you are doing. My best.. of luck on your project, I will be checking it out to the end. Are you real- ly doing all this alone? I work on my projects, at most of the time alone.. Well, w/my repair books & tool helping out!!!.

[@redlineranch.]

I’m completely alone, and wanted to make sure I did things proper for a comfortable swap!

[@emigdiocastillo9131]

The 88 is a Hilux pick up?

[@redlineranch.]

In the United States, it was marked as the “Toyota Pickup”

[@evanspeigel1518]

Did you keep the 80 heater system or did you take the Tacoma heater??

[@redlineranch.]

@@evanspeigel1518 I used the Tacoma wiring on the 88 pickup heater box/ fan, and routed the Tacoma cables to the pickup blend doors

[@evanspeigel1518]

@@redlineranch. thanks for the reply!! My 87 heater is gone so hopefully I can retrofit the 98 system in🤞
