1995 Toyota Land Cruiser Base Sport Utility 4-door 4.5l on 2040-cars
Leesburg, Virginia, United States
I have a 1995 Toyota Land Cruiser (FZJ-80, Locked) for sale. I have owned the car for about 3 years. I bought it form a wholesaler in Leesburg as a project/daily driver, with no service history. Over the last 2 years I have brought the car up to good standards, fixed all the things that were wrong with it. Most of the issues were due to the age of the car, and fairly typical for a 20 year old car, with some specifics to 80's. The complete list is below. I have been driving the car for 3 years and have no reliability issues with it. Starts and runs with no issues, and all the bad stuff has been fixed. If you look at the list of things done there is several k$ of work there, if you were to price it at a shop. Things that were done since I bought the car: - Replaced front diff output pinion seal - Replaced front oil pump gasket (this is a common problem with FZ motors) - Replaced front main crank seal - Replaced all front brake components (rotors, calipers, pads) - Complete front axel service (major seals, minor seals, bearings, knuckle bearings, outer seals) - Replaced shocks (all 4) stock monroe - Replaced steering linkage joints (all 4) - Replaced steering damper - Replaced power steering pump, flushed fluid - Replaced power steering pump drive gear - Replaced power steering gear box, and u-joint - Sealed the roof rack for leaks - Replaced Front diff oil - Replaced transfer case oil - Replaced dome light - Flushed brake fluid - Replaced rear diff oil - Replaced stuck emergency brake drum lever (driver side) - Fixed front passenger power seat worm gear assembly - Replaced coolant down tube gaskets - Replaced coolant hose - Replaced rear brake shoes - Replaced battery - Replaced rotor and plug wires - Replaced and filled AC system (evaporator core, Compressor, Exp Valve, Dryier) - Changed oil regularly around 5k miles - Installed new head unit and speakers (kenwood, I think) Full Disclosure: - The car has an odometer that reads 76k Miles, but the real mileage on the car is approximately 202k miles, someone obviously either changed the dash or rolled it. I had the car fax pulled when I bought it and the last note was at 193k, so adding the mileage I used, its at about 202k right now. - Rear windshield spray does not function, the motor and 3-way valve works, but there is a blockage in the line somewhere - Everything else works, including the lockers Family life and other responsibilities take up most of my time, and I am kind of over the project. Would love this car to go to someone who would be able to finish it, and give it a good home on the trail, or some overland adventure somewhere. . .. If you know these cars and see the work that went into it. . . compared to what is out there. . .. its worth it, but I am open to reasonable negotiation. Call or email if you would like to discuss, will share any info or knowledge I have on the vehicle. MIKE 7034593705 mta0202@gmail.com |

Toyota Auris gets new Touring Sports variant
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Toyota showed off the Touring Sports version of the Auris next to the newly introduced Auris Hybrid at last year's Paris Motor Show, but didn't say much about it. Six months later, just ahead of the Geneva Motor Show, the company is crowing about that wagon going on sale with the Hybrid Synergy Drive, creating the Auris Touring Sports Hybrid.
The hauling version of the exceptionally popular Auris hatchback doesn't just add a hybrid wagon to the compact segment, Toyota says it offers class-leading load capacity of 1,658 liters with the Easy-Flat one-touch rear seats down. With the rear seats up, it offers 530 liters. The little big gulp is possible because the hybrid batteries have been placed under the rear seats instead of being in the luggage area.
It looks the same as the hatchback save for the fact that it's 285 millimeters (11.2 inches) longer behind the C pillar, has a redesigned tailgate and a lower load floor. Engines beyond the hybrid will match the rest of the lineup: 1.3-liter and 1.6-liter gasoline engines and a 1.4-liter D-4D diesel. There's a chance we'll see it in Geneva, if we don't there's a press release below to tell you all about it.
Japanese spark plug giant NGK pleads guilty to price fixing, to pay $52M fine
Wed, 20 Aug 2014The ongoing investigation by the Department of Justice into price fixing in the automotive industry has nabbed one more company breaking the law. Japanese parts giant NGK Spark Plug Company agreed to plead guilty to a felony count of pricing fixing and bid rigging in the in the US District Court in Detroit. Its punishment is a $52.1 million criminal fine and to continue to cooperate with the DOJ's sleuthing into the problem.
According to the DOJ, NGK conspired to fix prices on spark plugs, standard oxygen sensors, and air fuel ratio sensors on vehicles from major automakers in the US, including the former DaimlerChrysler, Honda and Toyota, in a scheme that ran from at least January 2000 to July 2011. The charge claimed that the company and its co-conspirators held meetings where they agreed on bids and price quotes that were submitted to the automakers.
With the latest plea, the DOJ has caught 28 companies and 26 executives for price-fixing and bid rigging in the auto parts industry, and they have collected $2.4 billion in criminal fines. In 2013, the feds brought nine Japanese suppliers down at once, to collect $740 million. Scroll down to read the DOJ's complete announcement of the case.
2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Ultimate Edition
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Introduced at the end of 2006, this is the last year for the Toyota FJ Cruiser, the reincarnated FJ40-series Land Cruiser that will shortly journey to Takama-ga-hara, the Plain of High Heaven. In its first model year, we drove it to SEMA and found it, shall we say, coarse. It bobbled on the freeway and droned in the cabin, its boxy interior providing four bounce-boards for unpleasant frequencies. Tall mirrors helped one work around the eclipse of vision aft of the B-pillars, but navigating traffic required forethought and technique. Its turning circle was measured in kilometers. For the first two years of its life, it needed premium gas. It may have been fun to look at, but we couldn't wait to get out of it.
That's not the case anymore, and now the FJ Cruiser is poised to join a long list of vehicles that got better and better, then got axed.
