N180 2.7 3RZ-FE 4WD Manual

N180 · 1996–19994WD

The 3RZ-FE is a 2.7 litre four-cylinder rated at 150 hp and 240 Nm. This US 4Runner pairs it with four-wheel drive and the five-speed manual, a combination that disappeared after the 1999 model year when the manual was dropped for 2000. Buyers who still wanted a four after that had to take an automatic.

STORY

The 4Runner began in October 1983 as the N60, built on the Hilux pickup, and North American sales started in 1984 as a 1984.5 model. In Japan the first four generations were sold as the Hilux Surf, whose first generation went on sale in May 1984. Later generations were the N120 in 1989, the N180 in August 1995, the N210 in August 2002 and the N280 in 2009. The sixth generation, the N500, was introduced in 2024, replacing the N280.
