Any update on this project? I'm trying to repair my device, but I think the LCD behind it all is so hammered it still will likely only have partial function once I'm all done.

First: THANK YOU! The detail and the pics are really WONDERFUL. Very much appreciated. Do you have any info the type of LED bulbs that you replaced them with? I'm doing the polarizing film replacement right now and figured I might as well replace the bulbs too. Hoping to get the right 'bulb'...

So I'm unexpectedly moving. This is both good and bad. I need to sell my Prado (bad), but I'm being deployed to a country that has lots of the Toyotas (good) that we can't get in the U.S. (South Africa). This is the LC Prado TZ with AMAZING air conditioning (which matters in AZ). It has both...

This just happened to me after 6 hours of strait driving on a 1996 Prado. It suddenly shifted out of OD and wouldn't shift back in. I found that if I cooled things down (turning it off for a bit, running the heater, etc.) that OD would start working again. Running the heater especially worked...

Do you think the shaking here is due to something other than motor mounts needing to be replaced?

Is that the effect of the higher pressure MAP valve? This is very good to know. It is easier to remove heat through the radiator than through the heads.

That is very helpful! Thank you very much. While those guys don't ship to the US, it looks like I can get that in the US. It looks like this one: GM 3 bar Map Sensor Kit TURBO 3bar 12223861 16040749 | eBay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/163953817837

I need to update that. I'm not in China anymore. I'm in Arizona, USA now. China was fine. Big differences depending on where in China you are.

I couldn't find any SAAS available on eBay outside of AU. I did find this one: W PRO 52mm 2 In 1 Boost PSI & EGT Pyrometer °F Exhaust Gas Temperature Gauge | eBay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/234210505614 that looks like it will work for less than shipping from AU. I grabbed this Boost Tee...

Any links to Boost/EGT gauge? I need to get one. I looked on eBay for the Boost Tee and they run from ~$25 to $100. Anything to look for when selecting? Also any alternatives to Unichip? Unichip tuners - https://www.tundras.com/threads/unichip-tuners.47932/ Thank you.

Ok. So I've been researching this as cruise control is very important to me. According to Prado Point all that is needed is the switch stalk: 90 series cruise control - Toyota Prado How To's, Technical Information & Reviews -...

I just purchased my second '95 series. This one is a 1996 LC Prado RHD from Japan. I think it will be happy living in Arizona.

This truck is now sold- 17500 fyi
