Thank you guys for watching. If you guys want a signed print for your wall I print all of them myself from my large format Canon printer
Props to Papadakis for this build. Swb RAV4 is a really cool underrated off-road platform.
What an absolutely lovely little off-roader. He really built one heck of a vehicle out of a car I had never considered could look this cool. Homie really has a great eye for builds and it's so cool he had this vision to showcase this setup as an option. I wish I had known more about these before all the good ones disappeared!
Papa everything he touches turns to gold. He has a golden touch.
TLDR; 98 Octane in Japan == ~93 Octane US
Love the old RAV4s. Incredible AWD system from Toyota!
German & English
The two door 1st gen Rav-4s are super cool. Can't own everything I like but a manual one of those would definitely be cool to have.
Rav4's are extremely popular in Australia
The RAV-4 5S-FE is a common block used for the 3S-GE head. It's a decently strong block with a good oil system 🤘 edit: the JDM only RAV-4 had a 4th gen 3S-GE engine rated for 170hp, they're decently quick for a light SUV.
I’m impressed with the swap and the fact he got AC still 👍🏾👍🏾
It surprises me not many companies have done aftermarket suspension kits for these. They're everywhere in Australia. Great little vehicles. Thanks for sharing lads 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Hell yeah. My old parts manager did this swap and lowered it, and put 20x10s on his. Instead of a hood scoop, he shimmed the rear of the hood to raise it about 2" to try to solve the heat issue. That thing ripped.
I started watching the build a papadakis channel then it just stopped. Thank you for the last two videos of this thing.
Very nice! The price on these first Gen RAV4’s are about to soar
Just hearing Stephan talk about parts is so nice.
Due to the weight.. That car is literaly surfing the dunes👌
The 1st Gen RAV4s are overlooked capable performance/rally cars. Most folks aren't that heavily informed about the RAV4s development. The RAV4 is actually related to the Celica GT-Four and was designed in close relation to it, which is why the engine(3S-GTE) drops right in. Similar to the Lexus SC and Supra MKIV. The GT-Four drivetrain and tranny(E-154) will also drop right in to the RAV4..and I'm curious if Papadakis will go with that swap in the future, that tranny is beefy. Since the Celica GT-Four has a rally legacy and that technology behind it, the RAV4 was the brother to the WRC Celica, but was just neglected and throttled back for production and was never raced. The US RAV4s actually came with a 3S-GE engine, which is the NA version of the 3S-GTE. While they stopped making the the Celica GT-Four, the evolution and continuation of that cars lineage is the AWD Turbo Caldina, which is where Papadakis pulled the 5th Gen 3S-GTE engine from. The US never saw the Caldina, and most people don't even know what it looks like or what the hell it is. Look forward to seeing more of this build.
Larry Chen and Stephen Papadakis together! PapadakisRacing videos are great if you have never seen them.
That looks like so much fun. We all need to get out of our comfort zones and get out there, explore new things, and push ourselves past our doubts.
