If you guys can get any of these contact names/ numbers for me it'd be great. So far I am being told that there can be no modifications until after the 2nd o2. Even though I'm putting out 1/5 of the emissions as the 22re did 2 yrs ago. This just makes no sense.

I tried to get a direct number for the station but they would not give it to me. I called the SMOG REF CALL CENTER told them I had a lot of technical questions for the Ref and they put a message in to him, to call me.

number: 1.800.622.7733

Hey Mike, I was going through this thread, and while on the first page were you have listed the different Toy engines and their output, I've noticed that the 4.0 and 4.7 dont have engine reference numbers, like the 22RE or 3RZ. I know that the 4.0 is a 1GR but what is the 4.7??

boggerunner · « **Reply #242 on:** Mar 26, 2009, 10:12:04 PM »

im currently working on making a custom oil pan from the taco pan and a 22re pan. i will do a thread on it and post a link in here. i wall also be using the 22re and taco pickup tube to make 1 that works.

The 4.0 and 4.7 V8's are 1UZ & 2UZ... I believe? I think there's a 3UZ too?? All these numbers start giving me a headache after a while.

BUDDERS · « **Reply #244 on:** Mar 27, 2009, 08:08:16 AM »

Yes, there is a 3uz-fe too. I believe it is the 4.3 V8 with a aluminum block and VVTI and SEFI fuel injection. It replaced the 3sgte engine as toyota's Super GT power plant for their race cars. They were in the Lexus 430 series cars in the U.S.

The 2uz-fe is what is most commonly found in Tundras as well as Land Cruisers and 2004+4runners. In 2005, they started gettting VVTI and a plastic intake manifold.

I know the 1uz-fe is the 4.0 lexus V8 with a aluminum block and got VVTI in 1997.

Sorry, I ment the 4.0 V6 1GR form the Tacoma and FJ's. I forgot about the Lexus V8.

Finally finished my project. I have a couple cosmetic things left and AC things but its smogged, registered and gets over 20MPG.

Engine front

SMOG and fuse box in factory Tacoma positions

MAF and resonators

Side view; E-Locker switches that still need to be mounted

Passenger side view; Still trying to figure out the radio, no speakers, no sound. The Tacoma AC/heater and blower motor are under that dash.

Drivers side view; Tilt wheel works, Speedometer is 2 MPH off with Marlin signal converter.

The only 4-runner wiring left is for the rear window. The rest in all new from the 2000 Tacoma donor.

Exhaust crossover; driveshaft clearance is an issue with the HP 3rd

Front clearance; Electic fan was a must. There was 3" too little room for mechanical.

Rear is tight. Just like I like it. Harness in factory position.

85 4Runner
2000 3RZ
2000 Tacoma dash, wiring harness, AC/Heater system
Front Diamond Axle with 5.29 HP E-locker, Longfield 30's, Kongs Hi Steer,
Rear Tacoma axle with 5.29 E-locker, Front Range Off Road Full Float Axle Kit
Marlin Dual case, Marlin 4.7 gears in rear case

I have lots of questions for you about your dash swap. PM me if possible or email me vwfastg60 at yahoo dot com.

Holy crud, I thought I was looking at my Runner for a moment.

Great job.

TacoRunner · « **Reply #249 on:** Mar 31, 2009, 07:45:44 PM »

What kind of questions.

Russell_G · « **Reply #250 on:** Mar 31, 2009, 08:37:18 PM »

Im getting ready to do this swap myself. I have a parts truck and want to know how much more or less space i will have in a standard cab truck with the dash. I also am looking for any tips or tricks to making the dash go in smooth and have everything work. Do you have a write up on it or know of any?

boggerunner · « **Reply #251 on:** Mar 31, 2009, 09:36:53 PM »

what yr is your truck?

Russell_G · « **Reply #252 on:** Mar 31, 2009, 10:57:16 PM »

My truck is an 87 DLX and im cab swapping it too. The new cab is from an 88 2wd but is the same except the shifter hole, a few holes for A/c and a few brackets in the bay. the parts truck is 99 or 2000(gotta ask the friend im getting it all from again)

boggerunner · « **Reply #253 on:** Mar 31, 2009, 11:15:25 PM »

hope u get the mini header, the stock cast ones off the 96-99s? are junk, mine was cracked in half

Russell_G · « **Reply #254 on:** Mar 31, 2009, 11:46:10 PM »

i plan on doing that. Everything is new in the truck so the motor will wind up getting freshened up and a few aftermarket parts added for a bit more hp

TacoRunner · « **Reply #255 on:** Apr 02, 2009, 11:42:02 AM »

Mine cracked almost all the way around, but who cares. I welded my back together and it stopped. Plus I've dynoed both and they have the same output to the wheels. If you get a good motor for a good price and it has the cast one on it, dont spend your money on buying another stock one. It's just throwing your money away. Buy an aftermarket header.

TacoRunner · « **Reply #256 on:** Apr 02, 2009, 11:43:52 AM »

As for the amount of room the Taco dash takes up. Well, you got the pic's, what do you think.

As for easy of install. Make sure that you use the Taco cross bar behind the dash, so you are not making new mounts for everything.

Well, the cast manifold straight sucks. However, the mini-header is a very solid peice. Like many folks, my frame is too narrow for many of the headers. I can't justify paying $400 for an aftermarket header just to have to cut it all up to make it fit. The stock mini-header can be had for $100.

boggerunner · « **Reply #258 on:** Apr 02, 2009, 07:14:34 PM »

i got a stock mini header for $80 shipped to me

rockwalker · « **Reply #259 on:** Apr 02, 2009, 11:42:32 PM »

i have been having some problems with the stock gauges the temp and the oil are on before i even turn the motor over temp is at like running temp and oil is 3/4 up but when i start it oil goes to the bottom and temp just stays the same and sometimes goes the cold. So i wanted to drive it so i bought a aftermarket temp gauge to make sure it is running good before taking it on its first drive. The motor was getting warm and water wasn't moving in the rad so i turned it off. To check the thermostat to see if it was working and it is opening at the right temp. But the motor is still not cooling down or moving water in the rad, i don't know why it is getting warm.

your water pump take a crap?

rockwalker · « **Reply #261 on:** Apr 02, 2009, 11:49:05 PM »

i don't know maybe, pat was talking about some kind of air bubble that could do that.

kiyul4130 · « **Reply #262 on:** Apr 02, 2009, 11:54:34 PM »

im not sure what hes talking about. how can you tell fluid isnt circulating?

rockwalker · « **Reply #263 on:** Apr 02, 2009, 11:56:57 PM »

do you think its a water pump i think it very well could be but its not leaking or making noise.

kiyul4130 · « **Reply #264 on:** Apr 03, 2009, 12:03:50 AM »

you got the gauges all wired up right? what shows that its overheating? do you have the radiator cap off while its running and the fluid is just sitting there?

Thanks, I have yet to pull the taco dash out but im planning on using everything from the taco. My truck is going through a cab swap so while its all off im painting everything on the cab and didnt know if there was huge holes to cut or welding to do because i just dont want to paint it and then have to grind fresh paint to weld it. I will mock it up before paint then. This rig is being built for more of a winter daily/ summer camping rig then a full on crawler. Rust was an issue with the old bed so between the bed and cab im making sure they are 100% rust free and taking a bunch of steps to insure they stay that way.

yep cap is off and in tried with it on, i'm going to play with it some more today.

rockwalker · « **Reply #268 on:** Apr 03, 2009, 10:01:43 PM »

so today i tired to find out about the cooling problem, so i removed the thermostat and let it idle it got up to 220 so i killed it. So I checked the heater hose to see if the water pump was pumping good and it is. I think it maybe be a radiator and i need a shroud if someone has one.

are you re-using the same old radiator? If so, you need to replace it w/ a new one. You're supposed to replace radiators like every 10 yrs anyway. That old radiator is probably so clogged up...
