  • The Toyota Prado Is The Coolest SUV We Never Got In The USA!

    The Land Cruiser Prado is a Toyota truck that is very popular and known worldwide but in the USA.

    For reasons unknown to most Toyota decided that the Prado will not be part of it's line up in the USA and I feel like that was a mistake as it is easily one of the most iconic and coolest trucks they make!

    In this video we take a tour of this super cool 1997 J95 Prado! Hope you enjoy the tour as much as I enjoyed having this truck in the shop and working on it!

  • Building a Brand New Toyota Engine from Scratch

    We build a brand new Toyota engine from scratch. The engine we're building in this video is a first generation 2AR-FE 2.5L Inline 4 engine.

    This is the only way to get a brand new original long block from Toyota. In boxes and some assembly required.

    The car this engine is going into is a 2010 Toyota Camry SE which is greatly loved by it's owner. The original engine suffered oil loss and sent metal debris throughout requiring a complete engine replacement. The owner of the car requested that we build a brand new long block for their beloved Camry and so we did!
