Yep, its expensive. If thats in your money consider bringing in a clean 3 litre from the uk.
That one is top dollar for a late (94+) 3 litre here

Thanks it's manual, put 33's BFG MUDs and 30mm spacers due. Got 5 rims power coated and getting a service and clutch plate. Should I fit a lift? Mostly for the look with mild off roading

Well done, good choice the Jap version. Lots of little extras and the electric fuel pump makes it a nicer drive.

Best of luck with it.

Where did you find it??
