    Here's my build up of my Tacoma

    Here it is the day after I got it form the dealer.

    EDIT: oh snap I just noticed a Tacoma DC next to it. This was the last pic I took of the car before it was totalled.

    Another angle. We miss that car soo much. Notice the foglights on anytime mod too.

    I still own two POS Hondas though and some bicycles

    Next mods planned are 3000K HID's for the foglights and TRD exhaust and then I'll be done for a while.

    Enjoy! Sorry for the long post and picture whoring, I was bored.:D

    You're mostly right but the motor and drivetrain is the same. Only real difference was the bumpers, hood, hatch back, wheels, and some interior pieces. Almost everything I could swap out parts from a wrx or STi.

    Thanks for all the compliments guys. I loved that saabaru too, I just knew we would need something bigger eventually, it was hard sometimes getting all our gear into a compact wagon.
