wow a cup holder , unstoppable plastic dash squeaks and air bags to unexpectantly slap the hell out of you while you offroad....cool :crybaby:

Call me a pursit but I dont like it, the engine is cool though !
 
Are there airbags in it?

Thanks for the pictures!


you welcome

ill try to get more pictures if i could get hold of my friend. this car was brought for finalaizing the car and going on test drive in UAE with hot tempreture than reached 40~50C


it went perfect
 
:eek::eek::eek: that dash is very very bad it makes me sic is looks like they stole it out of the landrover defender
I think if they wanted a round dash they should be using the round dash out of the 94ish sx prados

Is that the v6 they use from the hilux's ??
cool cup holder but

Thanks heaps for the pics mate really awsum to see the new gear

not Hilux, here hilux only came with 4v , but that engine is 100% same as FJ Cruiser Enginer and the Land Cruiser 200 V6,

i know its smaller enginer but its more powerful than the old one and higher tourqe and HP

fj cruiser ive only seen one in italy once i dont know much about them Aus didnt get them and our 200 series come with 4.7 petrol v8 or diesel 4.5 tt v8
so dont really know much about them but power sound good

i guess you fellas will have to design new turbo kits for the v6 utes see heaps of 4.5 turbo petrol utes on youtube driving on two wheels:D
 
TRD is already have a Supercharger made for those kind of Engines.

FJ Cruiser already release in middle east on 2008

i have some new picutures of the Land Cruiser with all the new functions , ill try to get it once i get my laptop back


as far i know the new land Cruiser will have a new Engine as well 4.6 V8 VVTI Engine. the trunk door is controllable with remote now and comes with 3 Cameras for parking assist.. more like the new LX570
 
That is the same engine from the Tacoma, 4Runner and FJ Cruiser here in Canada and USA, Really nice engine, plenty of power, crappy mileage, hope they don't stick the 6 speed manual tranny from Tacomas in it though.

edit,

Even with those goofy stickers on the side, I would trade my Tacoma for that truck in an instant. :P
 
its amazing , but i like the 2008 side stipe stickers more than this new ugly one. i have the pic of 08 on my album

hopyfully not, because its still 5 M/T
 
Whats wrong with a 6 speed
 
Whats wrong with a 6 speed

Nothing if its a genuine 6 speed.
If its just a 5 sp with an extra gear in the middle with no difference to the overall spread of ratios,then Ill take the 5 sp.
Ask a Navarra owner:D
 
What Rosco said. I test drove a 6 speed and didnt like it one bit, so I got the 5 speed auto which I actually like a lot.
 
We get that engine (1GR-FE) in the Hilux, Fortuner (sort of bargain basement 4-Runner) and the 120 Series Prado. It is known as a very smooth, durable and relatively economic motor.

i know its smaller enginer but its more powerful than the old one and higher tourqe and HP
The 1GR-FE V6 does produce higher maximum power than the 1FZ-FE (4.5 inline six), but not greater maximum torque. The 1FZ-FE actually has significantly more torque at low engine speeds than the 1GR-FE. I would reckon that the 4.5 would be the better engine for offroad use.

So would the 6th gear be good to drop the hiway revs and better fuel??

1GR-FE
does this mean they will be called a GRJ-79 series for the utes
