I bought my FJ in July of 2007 from North Shore Toyota in North Vancouver, BC. I wanted a Voodoo Blue with the 6-Speed Manual and the Rear Diff Lock. They managed to find me the only one in the province matching that description about 30km's away. I got the dealer to stip off the running boards and add rock rails before I picked it up.
Picking it up at the dealership
Current Mods:
- OME HD Lift
- ARB Front Bumper
- IPF Fog Lights in Bumper
- Hella 700FF on the Bumper
- 2008 Sunshades
- Rostra Heated Seats
At 7,000kms I decided (actualy finally had enough $$$) to put on the OME HD Lift and ARB Front Bumper. Also went for the heated seats at the same time:
2008 Sunshades also added as summer is comming up here.
Now to save up for a Winch, Rear Bumper, and CB Radio.

Finally, after 8 months, I finally have my FJ here in the UK. I made use of the space inside it to ship a few 'goodies' too as that meant I paid no additional shipping other than from the suppliers to the dealer.
So here he is, just 5 days after I collected him, complete with Toytec Ultimate...
NEWMAN
Bought Newman stock with high miles(about 200k) for cheap as I was looking for a rig that could get me into a tight spot or two in order to camp, fish and hunt rocks. I needed a short wheelbase and 4WD. I really wanted a Toyota. Tacomas and (sadly)Jeeps were on my radar, but Newman...
