    I have a 2000 Tacoma with a 3.4L so I know about the motor but a guy at work is selling his 2000 4runner.

    This is what I know....

    3.4L with Supercharger
    190K
    timing belt changed recently
    All records
    Original owner
    Limited

    Also what are problems that you all see in the SC, I know nothing about them. This will be my wife's DD and we would be getting rid of a 2004 Rav4 with 145k.

    He said $4500 but I might be able to get him down to 4K.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    If it runs well and you can get him to 4k...go for it. Offer him $2500.

    Stock as Stock can be with duratracs and a roof rack
    Supercharger usually requires valve body upgrade for the auto transmission and 7th injector or supra (high flow) injectors with an upgraded fuel pump

    Also gas has to be premium

    If you don't have the upgrades you can destroy the transmission easily if you drive it hard
    You may also ping

    If you don't already know
