RE the Tach...
A club member just did this swap in his 94 4Runner - see some info here:
OK, I'm all finished exept for the SC. I still have to replace the 22RE fuel pump with the 5VZE pump and then I'll be ready to go.
I would highly rcommend this swap. The power gain is incredible.
I made my own adapter harness by getting a wiring diagram from the donor vehicle (1997 4runner 3.4 with a 5sp) and one from the recipient vehicle (1994 4runner 22RE with a 5sp) Then I matched eveything up. Basically there is only one plug on the 3.4 computer and two body plugs that have to be spliced. I got male and female plugs from both trucks so I can unplug the adapter at any time and remove it from the vehicle if it needs to be worked on.
The only wires I had to re-run were to the speed sensor on the t-case because on the 97, the vehicle reads the speed from the ABS, which the 94 doesn't have.
As far as the AC goes, yes, you need the 97 AC amplifier. Then get the little harness it's plugged in to and adapt to the 94 harness.
For the cruise control, I didn't have to do anything except hook up the cable because it is the vacuum type which doesn't read the tach.
For the tach, I got the guts out of a smashed cluster from a 94 3.0 V6 and soldered on the 10k Ohm resistor--works great.
Exhaust, I used downey headers and had a crossover made into my existing 22RE cat back system. It crosses over in fron to the crossmember. I also had the shop install ball flanges on the headers so I can take them off at any time for service.
Crossmember, transmission, tcase, driveshafts and frame motormounts all come form a 89-95 3.0. it sits 2" foward from the 22RE.
Pilot bearing, clutch and pressure plate from 3.4 (get a reman from the Toyota dealer--it's the cheapest). Throwout bearing from 3.0.
If your 3.4 came from an auto, like mine did, you'll need an ECU & wiring harness from a 5sp 3.4, a dipstick and tube from a 95 t-100 with a 3.4, an oil pan from a 4WD 3.0, and tranny torque brakets and inspection plate from a 95 t-100 with a 3.4.
That's all I can think of for now.
Later.
