toyota 3.4 v6 are the junk like the 3.0???

[gas is on the right]

we are kinda lookin for a newer body 4runner and lots of them have the 3.4 liter just wondering if they are junk.........:corn: :corn:

 

[WHITE TRASH1]

Nope. The very first 3.4's out the door had issues with headgaskets but since then they have been a much better engine overall.

 

[fitbike33]

yea there better. alot of people swap the 3.4 into their 3.0 rigs

 

[Glenn]

The 3.4 is a much better engine than the 3.slow.

 

[mad chemist]

"Only" have 115k on mine so far, but others are getting 200k easy. 3.4L will be another long-runnning engine like the 22RE.

 

[Fullywrecked]

:beer: Brother in law has one with 240k (hard miles) and its still going strong!

 

[Mike G]

we have one and its has given us not trouble what so ever.

 

[Grommit327]

I'm at 180k or so on mine and the last 90k haven't been easy miles

 

[Dan]

had good luck with mine, decent power, never missed a beat in the 120k i owned it, not great gas milage but i made it work for its keep

 

[JACKED944RUNNER]

My wife has one and it is Good.:awesomework:

hmmm i wonder if it would be worth it to swap into an early pickup in exchange of the 22r? Poss better than a 302/350 swap?

:corn:

How's your fab skills? Lots of stuff has been changed over to the other side, such as fuel and exhaust lines.

You would have no problem then.

I always thaught a toyota 1kz diesel would be a great swap. 3.0L turbo diesel that sits in the same motor mounts as the 22re and bolts up to the trans as well. I wish these were more available here in the U.S.

 

[sly-yota]

ive never heard of that! diesel... it sounds like it would be sweet!
