Selling my project! I will sell two different ways. 1) all toyota, no engine or trans. 2) with mounted Suzuki Hayabusa 1300cc motorcycle engine and complete harness. +* for the Ebay auction it is only Toyota parts included.* If you "Buy it Now" price, this will include all Toyota and all the Suzuki with eng mount.
Car is straight with new paint. It came with impact bumpers (gone) I have chrome y for rear. still needs front bumper. Seats are cloth reclining buckets out of a Hyundai Tiburon, dark grey. rear lower seat as well. Rear seat back is factory and freshly re-upholstered. Hat deck and door panels re-upholstered. Needs headliner. Has dash cap installed. Wheels are XXR 002 wide lip. brand new. Tires are brand new racing compound 235/50ZR-15. Sadly the rear tires were cut by fender lip when towing on dolly. fronts have zero miles. Still has factory suspension and I have factory drive line. To keep it Toyota, just need eng/trans of your choice and radiator. Asking Auction price start at $1750.00
The toyobusa ( buy it now price) comes with all the above mentioned. + I have a 1999 Hayabusa engine mounted to toyota mounting locations with custom built engine cradle (needs paint) Hayabusa curved radiator and oil cooler mounted. Wire harness installed and lenthened up to dash. Wired in with a toggle and start button (ala mc style) I also have a drive line coupler to mate to a custom drive line (4 bolt u-joint) Oil filter relocater included. I removed the Toyota clocks to install Hayabusa instrument cluster ( still needs mounting). Also included is a Brocks Stainless sidewinder Hayabusa drag exhaust system. throttle bodies come with fuel pump built in/on.
My calculations for this project complete adding nitrous should deliver 220hp and weigh around 1500lbs.
Asking $3800 for toyobusa - Buy it Now price-
to complete will need: Custom built drive line, modification to header pipes and lenghten to exit. finish mating harness. cooling hoses, oil cooler lines, cut clearence hole in hood for throttle bodies/air cleaner. strut and spring modification for lighter front end and tire clearence in rear. Again, my calculations for these finishing items approx $2500 if your having someone else build/modify.
When all complete it will be one fun and unique car with some crazy power. Only catch is there will be no reverse!
This car would not be hard to finish and will be worth way more than invested. I am selling due to divorce. I have no garage of my own to work on this or else I would keep and complete.
It is located in the Seattle area. I have clear title, however cannot seem to find hard copy. I will apply for new and can send proof of ownership. Buyer is responsible for shipping. I would be willing to assist with regional delivery. We could discuss those options. I will state again, the auction price does not include any hayaubusa equipment! Any questions , send me an email.

Legal approach in $1.2 billion Toyota settlement could impact handling of GM recall cases
Wed, 26 Mar 2014In the past, if an automaker did something wrong, they were usually prosecuted by the US government through something called the TREAD Act. Short for Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation Act, it basically requires automakers to report recalls in other countries, along with any and all serious injuries or deaths, to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Failing to report or attempting to conceal anything when there's been a death or serious injury constitutes a criminal liability. The idea is that this setup puts the onus on manufacturers to keep NHTSA apprised of safety related issues before they become a problem in the US, thereby allowing the regulator to better protect consumers.
In theory, it sounds like a relatively airtight set of rules for dealing with misbehaving automakers. That didn't stop the US Department of Justice from ignoring TREAD in its prosecution of Toyota's handling of the unintended acceleration recall, though. The result of this new approach, which charged Toyota with wire fraud, was a $1.2 billion settlement. Now, the wire-fraud approach could be used for the expected case between the US government and General Motors, based on the statements of Attorney General Eric Holder, who specifically mentioned "similarly situated companies" when discussing Toyota.
Toyota launches updated Verso-S in Europe
Wed, 14 May 2014Globally, the Toyota Yaris has bred more variants than we can shake a stick at. It's been known in different markets as the Vitz, the Platz, the Bella, the Vios and, to us, as the Echo. The first-generation model bred a small cargo van called the Yaris Verso - a mini minivan riding on the shortest wheelbase in its class - which was renamed the Verso-S for Europe and alternatively known as the Space Verso, the Ractis, the Ractis Verso and even the Subaru Trezia in certain markets. And now Toyota has launched a revised version of its Verso-S in Europe.
Arriving as a mid-life facelift after three years on the market, the new Toyota Verso-S has been reinterpreted through the "Keen Look" design language that's been distinguishing the latest generation of Toyotas, particularly in the European market. That means new projector-beam headlights and LED daytime running lights, a reshaped grille with chrome surround, more LEDs around back, a fresh set of 16-inch alloys and new color options.
The interior has likewise been spruced up with new trim and color choices, as well as a tire pressure monitor fitted as standard. There's a new touchscreen display with more connectivity options, upgraded nav and a rearview camera as well. Since Toyota's made no mention of engine upgrades, until we hear back, we have to assume the 1.3-liter inline-four and 1.4-liter diesel engines carry over unchanged with the buyer's choice of either a six-speed manual or continuously variable transmission.
Minivan market not what it used to be, but margins make up for it
Thu, 05 Jun 2014
Residual values for last year's minivans are higher than they were in 2000.
Much like the station wagon was the shuttle of Baby Boomer generation, the minivan has been the primary means of transport for Generations X and Y. Just as the boomers abandoned the Country Squire, though, those kids that were toted around in Grand Caravans and Windstars are adults, and they certainly don't want to be seen in the cars their parents drove.
