Edward, if you like the airbag suspension, then budget 3k for all the undercarriage suspension parts. This is 4 airbags, and most of the bushes that need replacing.
Ideally, a celsior with clean interior, and really good paint is what you should be after. Always budget for suspension work, these puppies need lots of TLC after 20 years.
Once you replace the airbags, contol arm bushes, steering rack bushes, trans and engine mounts, the differnce is chalk and cheese, and the parts replaced are good for another 20 years.
RB toyota in NZ is the place to get your bits from. Otherwise, Toyolex in USA. Forget about local stealerships. AU$1500 for one airbag? Try AU$490 plus shipping from NZ.
