hey neighbor.. There was a post on reddit a few weeks back but a former toyota tech who was opening his own place. No personal experience but might be worth reaching out to about the mechanical stuff. https://www.toyoworkshop.com/

hey guys, while I appreciate the advice from the 80-series legal team... I don't have the energy or time to try and pursue something like that. Like I've already said. I gambled and lost. Have to own it. I am going to contact the seller but don't expect a lot out of that conversation...

It does, and the Torque app was showing good readings according to the wave diagram in the FSM. But like I mentioned, after a 25 min drive getting the engine hot and turning the car off for a bit, once I restarted I got no reading from either of them, along with no reading on STFT.

Would not having cats present drivability issues like I mentioned in the first post? Based on the amount of rust on that straight pipe there i'd imagine its been that way for a long time.

Just walked out the garage. VIN matches there.

Thanks. Trying to stay positive. Was the seller a scam artist? Maybe. All the s*** wrong with this thing could have been from any of the 5 previous owners too.. And had I known more / paid closer attention to things I probably wouldn't have hit "accept". Not looking to start a witch hunt on...

Before the auction end yeah, but I think i had only 24 hours to accept the offer once it officially ended. Took a gamble and now have to deal with it.

@NeverFinis Thanks for pointing out those things, some I knew, some I didn't (The engine ground). I'm tending to agree with your assessment. Dash being out could explain some things I didn't mention, Speedometer is off, the flapper that controls air direction (floor/vents/defrost) doesn't...

1) I agree that I own it now, its my problem. 2) Agree. I expected to pay a premium, especially as these are like non-existent in the New England area. 3) Trying to go thru things. I think I need to pause and start with simple things just not throw parts at it. Yeah the sunroof looks s***ty...

Heard. No scrolling here, bought a used FSM on ebay, came with its own grease on the pages. Yeah not sure yet what it is, but it has some metal hold down clips that i'm guessing should have been screwed into something 100% Agree. I'm not sure but i'm going to wager they are of no help. At...

Thanks guys, trying to process some of the replies here.

Hi all, been mostly a lurker here for a bit, but finally starting my own intro thread. Story time incoming. I'm a long-time import car guy. My wife and I had our 15 minutes of fame several years ago coming from the Nissan Z world. I owned a highly modified 2009 Nissan 370Z and my wife owned a...

Not OP but i think i'm having a similar issue.. How would a normal working fan clutch react?

2 yr bump, any chance these will be available again?

No skin in the game, but bumping this as there's a recent FS thread by this person, which is too bad because its a nice looking truck. But not trying to buy something across the country from a known scammer. thanks OP for posting.
