StAndrew's Build

4runner has coils, not coil overs. You can do a linked coil rear suspension like the 4 runner but not sure why. If you're going to link it, do it like a bad ass

So Monte, you pretty much have the same plan I do then. Win the fucking lottery; dream in the mean time

 

True, I know what your sayin......Coil + over = sickness!

 

4 runner is a 3 link and not enough travel.

I go big or go home be all custom.

All link setups use coils no leafs. Via coil over or coils with separate shocks.

Yea basically haha

But really the linking and cage will happen for certain. Then power mods probably.

 

Raman and PB&J's will be your best friends...

 

Already are. And the cheap totinos party pizzas.

 

I use a flip phone, no data plan, no cable/sat TV, and cheapest internet package.

 

I...don't pay any of that..haha included with rent..well..internet anyways. No cable for me. netflix phone is off my family still.

 

Ahh, the good old College days... Wait till they start collecting college dept. My old roommate got threatened to have his car repo'ed...

 

Not a single loan...so far.. was close this year though..only one left.

 

I bought one that uses a tial spring and diaphragm that has a 3 year warranty so I'm not worried.

 

Ron, next weekend won't work for me Weekend warrior duty (reserve duty)... Damn damn damn... So many projects, so little time.

 

Thinking I will go tial wg eventually. Just seems so expensive for what it is. Does it really affect performance that much? Or is it more of a reliability factor?

 

Reliability factor. WG regulates your boost. If it ends up failing then your motor will pop because of it not opening up when it should. Guys over at ls1tech, theturboforums run a lot of china products, turbos included. They say it's fine to cheap out on BOV but the WG is something you don't want to cheap out on.

 

Pretty much. Also much better machining for no leaks. A leaky waste gate will increase turbo lag.

 

I'll definately keep that in mind. I'm guessing it's not too big of a pain to swap out wastegates. Even with the stove sealer. Maybe just tap it off with a hammer after you pull the downpipe off? I'm pretty strapped ($$$) for this turbo build. Really would like to get it right the first time though. If you really recommend a tial I will go for it.

 

Precision turbo makes a nice one as well. Cheaper than the tial and comes with variety of springs. That's what I'm running.

 

You can also find them used on eBay. I got a decent deal on a used Tial that way. Inspect the diaphragm if you go this route.

 

Where we at Chris? Been a while since I've checked the build

 

Not on fire yet. Knock on wood. Slow with new job and third kid on the way

 

Will soon be in the front yard wit a fo sale sign in teh window
