    No one does it like Mr. Larry Chen.
    Video, audio, photography, still shot,
    action shot, doesn't interrupt builder,
    gets down to the nitty gritty without rushing & best editing ever. This is why
    builders are willing to do interviews & this is why Larry's fan base keeps growing. Wrench, burning the midnight oil, build, destroy, repeat !!!

    We had a white '89 doublecab Hilux as our family car. My dad bought it new the year I was born and kept it til 2006. The engine went through a couple of rebuilds but it had something like 350,000km on the clock by the time he sold it. It came with bench seats front and back and a badge on the tailgate that said proudly, '5 SPEED'. My dad had the front bench swapped for buckets, power steering installed and the front drums changed to discs. Eventually it got too expensive to maintain and he sold it off, which I now regret. It was just so clean. I'm sure it's still driving around somewhere in Pakistan today. There's an absolute abundance there of used, smuggled and stolen car parts, and labour is dirt cheap so you can basically keep cars running forever.

    can confirm these trucks hook up like no one would ever guess. stock ls1/t56 in mine ran 12.8 quarter mile on cheap all seasons stock leaf springs. built the motor to roughly 500hp and so far ran a 12.1 on drag radials but was spinning 1st and 2nd. caltrax should fix that this year

    Theres a 91' longbed I see everyday in the mountains east of Fresno cali. Ive been thinking about a toyota build like this for awhile. I think id like to build a single cab 96 tacoma they are such good looking little useable trucks. Ive owned 4 toyotas. A 1985 4runner a 1984 4runner, a 1996 Tacoma and currently my Daily driver work truck a 2003 Tacoma thats supercharged with a 2'' pulley making 300 whp 310 tq which has got to be around 400 crank hp with all the loss being a 4wd and the spilt rear driveline.. Its zippy and quick and so much fun on mountain roads but still slow compared to what it could be. but I know the 5vz can handle so much more power! I'm just under 300k miles and know a guy that did over 480k before head gasket issues. I think he has 640 k on his supercharged 97 tacoma now. he raced a trx for fun last year I'll link the vid in the next comment,* he now has it on a haltec ecu making an additional 60 hp through the whole hp/TQ curve

      I am also confused, Scrappy. 900 to the wheels with that weight technically it should be low 9's. 600-650 at the wheels gets mid to low 10's at that weight. Either way congrats on the build Ken .

    Not trying to discredit a beautifully made truck, but 950hp? I'm confused by the power claims VS the times. 950whp in a light truck would trap a TON More that 132. And 18lbs won't get a cam only 5.3 anywhere near 950whp. I've put together at least a dozen of these. Are you taking it easy and ran it on low boost and cranked it up at the dyno?

      UZ can do it. Can go well north if 1k whp. Building one now myself. However, it’s about 3-4x the expense to make 900hp in a UZ than an LS platform, which is why you don’t see them as much. The UZ is far superior from an engineering perspective, no arguing that. Just expensive to build.
