    i've seen a lot of people recommend blackhawk lt something, i'm running those, they seem pretty ordinary to me, but they seem to have a good amount of brake dust

    If it makes a difference I swapped out to ebc slotted and dimpled rotors and ebc pads. Pads wore out a month ago and I was lazy so I went to auto zone and got a set from them. Haven't noticed a difference yet

    Forgot to share this one with yall. This is one of our advisors at the shop. We talked her into modeling in the box. She's about 5' 1" tall and had plenty of room left. Just shows how big this box is.

    I'm thinking maybe EBC stage 4 kit? I see a lot of good reviews and several people on here using them.

    Thanks guys! K9, I've got the house to myself, it's even in on base housing which is even better haha! And yes I know you prefer GSDs over huskies lol, I've always wanted one. If I didn't have the ability to get a husky, I was thinking a golden or a german.
    Yeah Mike haha the yard right now doesn't have a fence but I can put one in. But it should be fun haha
    Thanks there rattle, yup that was me lol

    Anyone run premium in your Tacoma? I tried it this time and I don't know if it's just a placebo effect but it seems to be running smoother/quieter.

    I only run race fuel. Pure race fuel. Makes my truck faster. Plus a pound of it is lighter than a pound of regular fuel so it's helps with weight reduction for more speed and stuff. Yup, true story.
