hilux

After many years of adventures, it's time for my old 1986 Mini Truck to find a new home. I purchased this truck in 2008 bone stock. I am the 3rd owner. First owner was an older gentleman who bought it new at a Toyota Dealer in Palo alto. Second owner was a college kid who owned it for a short...

Doesn’t look like much, but it’s got it where it counts and everything works. I mean everything! I got this truck a couple years ago and have been going through it since. Selling only because I have a chance to upgrade to a Land Cruiser and can’t keep both. Originally sold in Durango, CO and...

Hi all, I bought a 1992 hilux surf with the 2lte last summer. Lately the engine has been a dog on any decent hill and misfires on start up with lots of smoke out the exhaust but runs ok once warmed up. Truck has decent acceleration on flat. Pedal to the medal the truck will only do 30/km/h up...

Hi all, For the past few months my friend and I have been rebuilding a slightly modified 3L with a CT20 turbo and 2LT exhaust manifold +intercooler in a 1990 LN106 Hilux crew cab. Some time in March the truck broke down while on the highway. After a compression test, the compression numbers for...

What you are looking at is a 1996 Toyota Hilux Surf, the SUV version of the Hilux pickup which is known around the globe for its reliability. It is a sleeper JDM vehicle because it does not have a gas engine and instead the far superior 3.0 liter 1KZ-TE Toyota turbo charged diesel engine with an...

I have a 1994 Hilux LN106 3L with 160,000 km. When I changed the oil two months ago, after ~6,000 km and one month on new oil and filter, I borrowed a funnel from a friend to pour used oil from one container to another, and when he put the funnel into a bag he always uses after oil changes, the...

Time for another build :D Introducing my new 1978 Toyota Hilux I just picked up! It is a quality unit with no engine, or bed... For real though, it was $300, has very little rust (mainly some surface rust on the frame) and came with a title. Dude had to hack off the middle of the bed for...

Hi guys, been on the forum on and off over the last couple of years, previously I had an LJ78 landcruiser that i did a few engine mods on, most notably the Holset HE200 turbo Conversion. I have a post in the forum about that. Since completing my apprenticeship as a diesel mechanic, i decided...

Hey y'all! I just bought a 3L Hilux (no turbo), recently imported from Japan, two weeks ago, it's my first diesel and I already made some mistakes. I was driving out to Colorado and ran out of fuel on the Penna Pike (4 miles from the non-gouging station, because I didn't know there was no tank...

Gday all, just thought I’d flick up a couple pics of my project of the last 6 years, now mostly at a point I’m happy with. It’s come a long way as obvious! Has anyone got pics of one of these old girls ‘period correct’ modified? I’m aware mine is not. Any 90’s Pickup/Hilux would be interesting...

Gday all, I’m new to IH8MUD, and have a question about my Fram filter. The vehicle is a 1990 LN106 Hilux wih the 3L motor, plus turbo. The 3L is currently being assessed for cause of cracked piston (that’s another story), and while checking through the empty engine bay I found dust in the...

Hi everyone, I'm in the middle of changing the cooling system up in my hilux, It has a 1jz vvti out of a jzx100, Currently using a slightly modified v6 4runner rad with 2 Spal 12" pusher fans in front and is just not doing the job! I've found a 2000 MR2 Spyder 3 core ally radiator that with...

Hello Everyone, I decided to join the community and post about my 1989 Hilux I bought a few years ago and am finally getting around to restoring. I am the lucky guy that managed to find a JDM Hilux in the USA with a owner that was not much of a car guy. He just knew he saw Hilux's in Iraq and...

This is an FYI to anyone with an 89-95 US-spec 4x4 pickup. Many of the rear suspension products that @Ironman 4x4 USA have specified on their website for these trucks do NOT fit. The part numbers are below: The u-bolts are about 1/2-3/4” too narrow to work with the factory lower plates that...

Ignoring the large machine gun in the back of this one...I love the graphics on this Hilux. Kind of reminds me of mountains. Has got to be a Middle East-spec model. I've never seen those graphics before and they're my most favorite I've seen. Love that color scheme...very early 1980's. The...
