This may not be helpful depending on where you are in the project, but having done a 3rz swap, I’d recommend a 5vze instead. Parts availability & cost. Regardless of your choice, Best of luck.

I've thought about it but like the idea of the 3rz being a smaller package and a little lighter. It's mostly a trail rig so don't need a ton of power just more than the tired 22re
Toddler wheeling seat $150 obo
Had this made by BS Sand when they were local and bolted into my roll cage when my son was little. Didn't see enough trips and spent most of its life in the garage with stuff in top of it. It's set up to accept a 5 point harness. Has a bracket to fit my 4 Plus roll cage. Great seat to let your little one wheel with you. Let me know if you need specific measurements or have any other questions. Thanks.

Where did you get that spare tire carrier?
That’s from @Bellfab
I have done 2 3rz swaps in 1st gen 4runners, lots of work to swap a 4 cylinder for another 4 cylinder, but I wouldnt do it differently with either. Best things about the 3rz are that ecu will adjust idle so it pretty much never stalls when in dual low and that it runs just like a 22re but the power continues all the way until redline. If you buy a harness from ORS you can do the swap in a weekend. I had no problem holding 70mph up the black canyon city hill on 37's.
What I would not reccomend is a 2rz as they have a lot less low end torque. A friend of mine got a deal on a 2rz and went with it - he was not happy with the swap. It had less torque at and just off of idle than his 22re.
Both of mine were coil on plug motors, if you end up with an 03 motor I still have a toyota wiring manual and my harness build notes. Best advice I can give is buy the ORS harness though... Not sure if he advertises anymore, but he does still make harnesses. I may still have a few parts laying around too and I think marlin sells the g series bellhousing now.
Awesome man thanks. After @toy_tek comment I started looking at the 5vz again. Solely because my dad has a 96 Tacoma that was stolen and recovered a few years later after he bought another Tacoma to replace it, but I really do like the idea of the 3rz. They are just getting so hard to find. At least in my experience

They are in boxes and ready to go
Anyone have wheels/tires in the 33-35 range for an 80? Stock or aftermarket considered.
I'm debating selling my 35's. It's the ones in the pic. Vision wheels style 11. 17x9 -20 offset.
did I convince you to go 37's?
As much as I'd like that I'll probably get really tired of a slower ride

We are probably walking distance for each other. We could meet up over beer and some cutting tools and see if we can fit this bad boy on my 200.
Narrator: he's insane.
You are more than welcome to swing by and take a look, especially if you bring beer...
