    Unlike some of the others, I have heard of the Trekker. Looks even better than the 4Runners so far, and I like the 84-89 4Runners so that's a big deal for me!:D Will that engine fit in a 1988 4x4, because I may just have to say screw the 22RE and the turbo, get that and the supercharger instead!

    Awesome work man! Keep posting!:waytogo:

    i do not recommend a turbo on a 4x4..turbos need to be moving to get best results for boost. but superchargers get it sittin still..just my .02

    thanks bro ...

    thank you .. I'm a "super fan" of the older,rounder body lines .. just love em' i'm also a fan of the 84-88's .. also love that style ..
    5v-ZFE will fit into a 84-88 style .. some work is needed to make it fit , as it is not a direct replacement .. but it works .. and with the supercharger .. what can I say ?


    TRU dat !! ..

    got that right, that definitely is something worth drooling over, it's like an emperor's seal for the citizens of Japan, you MUST bow to it as a sign of respect. I can't wait to see this Trekker done! Especially since I have never even seen pictures of one before this forum! Keep up the beautiful work dude!:bow:

    yep .. it was a bit of a challange .. but once I figured out the "body computer" or "integeration relay " ... it went together fairly easly .. That is the 2000 4Runner guage cluster by the way !!!!
