    That's ambitious!

    There's a supercharged flathead on BaT right now that I'd love to hear in person. It's a V8 though, not an inline 6.

    Mostly stock, just getting it to my liking, just happy to have had the taco and now my 4Runner.
    Personally just want the drivetrain from it for a 240z swap. Get that old metal moving real quick like with a new Nissan heart.

    I don’t get it either other than the motors are apparently bomb proof and can be built to outrageous horsepower numbers and not grenade.

    That would be a nice swap although I’m pretty partial to keeping an old 240Z pure. I had one which I built up the original motor and it held its own against 5.0 Mustangs back in the day.

    In between Tacomas at the moment.
    Likely another reason they aren't for me. I do enjoy a car with a lot of power. But in a practical sense, it doesn't do me much good. I have a 'zippy' little sports car, but I can't really 'unwind' it much (where I live). Sometimes on some quiet secondary highways, or the occasional fun acceleration up to speed. But I mostly have it for the amazing driving experience, as opposed to straight up speed.
    I also have an SUV with over 400hp. It's going to get converted into a fun Overlander (that I'll actually use as one) - so it's got an actual purpose. But I certainly don't need that much power. It's a constant battle, while driving, to keep that thing from going WAY over the speed limit.

    Speaking of “zippy” sports cars, I picked up this turbo BRZ back in February and it is now my daily driver. It continues to put a smile on my face every time I have to go to work. :D

    That’s a damn good looking Tacoma behind it, too!

    The closest I ever got was a new ‘80 Mazda GLC Sport 5 speed. I added KYB shocks and purchased one of the first sets of 235/60/13 BFG Comp T/A’s. It rode well and got good fuel economy was about it.

    I meant this seriously by the way. Not just because of the dirt but that gold color was a pretty rare option in ‘63.
