    Might sound dumb but anyone know of any good threads for some cluster swaps, sounds easy enough to do but I haven't seen anything on it. Lookin for some ideas

    Thank you sir. I agree the stock (puckish) green that came from Toyota doesn't look that good.

    I been wondering if this setup can give 3" of lift. Most websites I see these on are 2.5"

    After watching a video over the stock acceleration from a 3.4, this upgrade will make it to where there's a V8 inside that hood.

    Yeah if you crank the coilovers you could probably get 3". But the amount of lift is not most important.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    The A340 really has a hard time getting the shift at high load and high RPM. Sounds good but lets it run away when its off torque peak.

    I've owned both a 3.4 supercharged 7th injector and 4.7 V8. It's definitely not a V8 but a lot of fun to be had. Well worth the money if you're sticking with a 3.4.

    True but I wanna make my front level with the back once I put a new leaf pack in. Same as putting slightly bigger tires.

    More of a reason why I wanted a standard in my truck than an auto. Maybe someday I might have someone convert my truck to a manual.

    Is the 3.4 with the 7th injector still slower than a Toyota V8? I did race a possible 6.2 GMC on 35s and won not by much but some.

    My bad I just saw a video of the stock 3.4 acceleration. Compared to my truck this is slow. But that wouldn't be a bad idea for someone to do on here and post it on youtube (cough, cough)

    Keep in mind I had a 4runner so it is heavier than t taco but I feel like my 06 4.7 Tundra could smoke my 4runner. I still have a hard time not chirping my 34" heavy tires on my Tundra.

    Pulled my seats and console to deep clean while my transfer case is trashed. Did some research and ordered some floor sound deadening from https://www.sounddeadenershowdown.com

    Having solid metal transmission mounts puts a lot of driveline noise in the cab, so I use earplugs on long trips. Hopefully this helps enough. Planning on spending around $80

    After the shopvac I used a steam powered carpet cleaner and took a gallon of black water out from just the floor carpet. IMG_0303.jpgIMG_0304.jpg
