Hey People,
I really like my 4Runner for it's off road capabilities but it's power and fuel economy really suck. Because of this I decided to build a new vehicle that will do what I need, and have the power and economy that I want.
So why does the 4Runner get such bad mileage? The aerodynamics and the motor. So how do we fix it? Replace the motor and improve the aerodynamics. The way I decided to do this is by dropping in a VW TDI AHU engine and replacing the body with a '94 Integra.
Here's where I'm at now.
It's been about a year, and it will be another year before it's on the road, but I'm enjoying the build so who cares about time.
If you want more info check out my site
Toyota Integra TDI
There's over a dozen build articles and over 500 pictures in the gallery all in high resolution.
If you have any questions you can ask them here or on my site. I'll be updating this thread as the project progresses.
I've enjoyed reading some of the builds on here and I hope some of you will enjoy reading my build.
