Hello Everyone,
Picked up this cruiser last week in Okinawa, I'll be here for another 2 and a half years so may as well ride in style. She's got north of 300k on her but runs like a top. Fresh paint and a new set of 31"s and M/T rims to top it off. Not gonna build it too much until I get back to the states. I've had Toyota's before in the states, but this one is my new pride and joy. Any feedback or ideas are welcome. If you're in Oki too lets get together sometime!
To do in Japan-
-Apple Carplay touchscreen head unit
-Eng-Tek diesel tuner - Does anyone know what the LED's mean? Left-most one just blinks green.
-3-way front speakers 4"
-Driver underseat sub
-Black steering wheel
-EGR delete kit [Vanlife] w/ pyrometer + clean intake manifold.
-Butterfly delete? Does anyone notice anything? I'm not sure if these have a dumb or smart EGR system.
-High flow thermostat + drill 3 small holes on outer edge.
-3" downpipe + exhaust, hard to find an exhaust shop to do this here.
-Boost gauge
-Vintage KC lights w/ Toyota covers
-Factory Brushguard - Does anyone have one for sale here?
-Figure out lighting for the dash - Dash lights work perfect, some of the switch lights are just burnt out I presume.
To do in US-
-120 series 1KZ-TE head
-Larger turbo
-35"s, regear?
-Rear e-locker
-Front axle refresh
-Tow hitch
Some pictures for your enjoyment!
