Hey there!

Just picked up a KZN130 1994 Hilux Surf SSR-X Limited 4wd 5speed with the 3.0L 1KZ-T. First time Toyota owner, and its legal here in the states! 142,000km and zero rust!

Welcome to the forum. Nice Surf. Curious as to how much it cost over there?

[Stormhelix]

I got mine for around $15k USD, but there are local surfs with much higher miles and automatic for up to $30K usd.

That's about $21k AUD. Bought my '92 LN130 here in Australia about 20 years ago for $18k AUD. It's been off the road for a few years now awaiting some TLC. Surfs have not been imported here for many years now.

Quite a few years ago when the Aussie $ was up with or even better than the US$ I was selling timing belt kits to Canada and the US. Most went to Canada as the Surf was quite rare in the US at that time.
