The Toyota Land Cruiser 79 is a living legend, but let's face it, it's hard to live with. The awesome folks at US Cruiserz decided they might be able to improve on this age-old formula, and build something special.
With a revised turbo and management, power is up from 151kW to a staggering 350kW, with torque nearly doubling to 880Nm. But the big news is an Auto-swop, which until recently is something Toyota has never offered from factory.
Additional nice touches include a 13-inch touchscreen with android auto and apple carplay, as well as modified elbow-rests with cupholders and even USB ports! Certainly beats the after-market radio that the car comes fitted with as standard.
And then of course there is the new front-end treatment which totally modernises the look of the vehicle
We absolutely love this conversion and we salute the folks at US Trucks for pursuing their vision, and we have no doubt this is going to be a popular conversion for Land Cruiser lovers in SA.

Cool it's about time that South Africa has a proprietary modification shop for certain cars like how BMW has Alpina and AC Schnitzer and Hartge and Manhart and such , and how Ferrari has Novitec and so forth would be great if a company can focus on certain brands and build quality parts for those certain brands

Okay, just as I was thinking about this and my issue was that manual gearbox.. Then bam.. There comes an auto... I'm super happy... 🎉🎉🎉🎉.... Definitely going to check these guys out.. If they do everything in house, even suspension lift.. That's dope.. And you can service it at any Toyota dealership... ❤❤❤

Nice, I used to thing about the Dodge Ram that you drove last time and how much money it needs to own in South Africa. But the LandCruiser is here, its a nice reliable V8, available parts. To me the LandCruiser is a cheaper and more reliable alternative to the previous Gen G63 AMG, It comes with a beautiful sounding V8, its perfect off road, parts to customise it are all over the country. Brabus has G63 4x4 squared and the raised Brabus adventure pick ups. The only other cars that can get close to all Brabus Adventure Off-road trucks are this Toyota LandCruiser trucks and SUVs. Good job buy the US Cruiser guys, A smart move also, how about we enjoy trucks that we get in our country than keep importing unreliable US truck that costs millions to get them here. please make more videos of all your LandCruiser offerings. We need to know more about south African tuning Companies and most of the local companies never show their stuff on KZfaq. Please do more videos. Enjoy your car man.

I agree.. Local aftermarket car tuning companies need to put most stuff on KZfaq so that we know about them... We are a bakkie nation after all, right?
