Default Re: V8 fj

no more FJ Cruiser. thats why I bought a 2008, I had traded my 2007 FJ on a 2007 Tundra Double Cab, but decided to sell the Tundra and get another FJ, and BTW, I already have another Tundra, so with two tundras it was ok to get rid of one.

I got a killer deal on the 2008 FJ, $24,700.

and I got the Tundra for $27,500, they took over $5k off the price, and 0% interest, so when I sold it, I did not get taken to the cleaners, I did quite well.

The 4.7L will bolt right up to the 5 speed automatic, you can use complete off the shelf parts, throw in a supercharger, but seriously all you need to do is bolt on a supercharger to the V6

the Lexus GX470 aka Landcruiser Prado is where the Frame for the FJ came from, the frame has been in production over 10 years now. and you can swap all of the lexus drivetrain parts over to the tundra, including the CPUs and wiring harness if you are willing to spend that kind of money or just bolt on the TRD supercharger to the V6.

What I would like to see is the 4.5l variable vane twin turbodiesel V8 used overseas and in australia, some people are importing the landcruiser over with that diesel v8 to the US, I have found them on ebay from time to time.

I want one of these
