Better than a pic... Here's my YouTube user ID.

Yo whitenslow, there's a bell housing adapter available from THESE GUYS that lets you bolt your '84 Toyota drivetrain to a 4g63 turbo engine. I know the 22R's run forever (330,000 miles on mine when I sold it), but when you're ready for that sort of power, holla. One of my boys is putting that combo (RWD) in a Hyundai Elantra 4-door with 24" slicks and an Explorer rear axle.

that's what I love about these trucks.... you can put anything in it from a 464 to a b18.. it's all just a matter of getting someone to put the bellhousing together. To be honest, my plan for the truck is probably to paint it and sell it and get a 96+ 4 runner as a replacement :hs:

I miss my '85 Xtra-Cab Deluxe (2wd) 5-spd. :cry: It was my first "car", and the most trouble-free vehicle I've ever owned. I put 1040 watts and 11 speakers in it with 3 amps, active crossover, 10-disc changer, tape deck, radar detector, alarm with motion sensors, dynamat, custom-upholstered interior, wheels, tint, loaded with every option. All it ever needed was 1 clutch, oil changes, tires and wiper blades.

12 years later I totaled it rear-ending a Volvo wagon at 10 mph. My bumper was lower than theirs. It destroyed the whole front end and fixing it wasn't in my budget at the time. Sold it for $600 and it got a new lease on life in Mexico. Occasionally it pops up in one of my dreams. I think I'm destined to own another one, especially since discovering that adapter... but it's hard to improve on perfection.

Edit: How do you put a B18 in 'em? They spin backwards? Who makes a trans for that? :thinking:
