Vehicle Detail
Hello All, I bought this car almost 2 years ago. If you are serious about this type of car search 1ZZFE oil burning. Anyway, I bought this aware of the issue due to its terrific body and condition. I had the motor completely rebuilt. This included new bore, pistons, rings, oil pump, timing components, crank polish, all bearings and wear items, A valve job was done also. This was at approx. 71000. After completion, it runs perfect. I drove it that way for 1000 miles or so, and noticed it revved excessively on the highway, so I looked for solutions. I bought a brand new Toyota 6 speed trans that is an exact replacement. You can research this on Monkey Wrench Racing. This includes a Limited Slip Differential. It made all the difference. It is much more relaxed on the highway now and is now 6 speed with all genuine Toyota parts. I changed the clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing, slave cylinder and surfaced the flywheel at that same time ( approx. 72000 miles) using OEM parts. Within the last 1000 miles, I replaced all brakes and struts. The tires are getting near time for replacement. They have ample tread, but are getting old. I don't remember exactly how old the tires are, but I think they are over 5 years old. I did not list each and every maintenance item I changed while working on it, but rest assured, if it was a wear item, I changed it. This car is extremely reliable and so much fun to drive. It is very light, so it handles great!! I really enjoy this car, but it is one of many vehicles I own, and storage and insurance are becoming a burden. Every item works as it should, and it recently passed NJs stringent inspection testing. I recently purchased a hardtop for this, but did not yet buy the mounting kit. It is on there with 2 of the 6 hard mounting points. It will not harm it being on there as long as it isn't driven without the mounting kit. The top has a value of approx 2000, so the buyer can recoup some of the price if it is sold. The top was shipped to me from a friend in England. This is a Toyota factory top ( ROW got hardtop option) and is in excellent shape. I have also bought a new Clarion stereo with Sirius and Bluetooth for this car, but never installed it. It is new in box. I bought it so I can talk on the phone when I drive. I will include these with the purchase. If you have any questions email me or call at 800-421-9494 X7128 M-F 11-8 Eastern Rich
