What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

I'll just be starting college next year so, you're ahead of me.

 

Just dip out early one week. Pretty sure RT usually starts on Wednesday or Thursday and runs until Sunday. You could still make it if you left Friday even.

 

its such a better time to be in moab though. Will be nice.

yeaaaaa...only washed him like..i think im finally up to 10 times haha

 

15x10 with 3.75" BS looks like?

 

I could. Itd suck to miss my Calc 2 class though...I could leave after class at 2:30 though...ill have to give it some deep thought

 

Be a bit wide for sure. But plenty of run wheels like that. All a person pref though. Would stick out about 1-1.5'' i think with 12.5'' wide tires. Some photos of rigs with them Hell i think Jerrys on IFS was the same setup.

 

wow thats more poke than I'd expect. *cue "thats what she said jokes"

 

hot damn. Thats a lot haha

Pretty much what i have but with 15x8 3.75'' BS and 1.5'' spacers.

Thats a lot of poke!

 

Finished installing my headers last night, got back from the exhaust shop this morning to weld a two bolt flange on the cat and she purrs like a kitten!

Here's a sound clip of what she sounds like after install.

I skipped class all the time my first two years and I turned out alright!

 

Think mine are 4 inch BS. Gonna go to shop to confirms. Need another rim after bending one last trail run.

 

Damn thats wide.

 

They really do change the sound for the better. I need a set of headers at somepoint. My stockers are getting leaky anyways.

 

Nonesense

 

Not a first gen, but still 4x4 and Japanese. I finally got a chance to operate on something other than my taco. This is my buddies. I wish it was mine Getting to these down pipe bolts is a PIA. It reminds me of getting to the two top bolts on the bellhousing on the 5VZFE.

 

Definitely a lot smoother to drive... Loving how it sounds!

 

Absolutely! 100%. I also love how raw the car feels when driving it.

 

This one is a 09. What year do/did you drive? I know the later ones drive a lot smoother. The shifts are very pronounced (even when slowing down), the suspension is very stiff, the car seems to await your input and reacts well.

My god... that power. I have never driven anything fast. I had a 2wd danger ranger (97 ranger) before I got the Taco. So I was giggling like a high school girl when my friend took me for a drive in the GTR. When those turbos spool up... I get the biggest smile on my face. It just tosses you back.

 

I love turbos for that. Every turbo car I've been in does that. DSM egale. Plymouth laser. Wrx. Supra. Always the same.

Puts around town fine. Floor it. Goes fast. Then. Whoooooossshh!!! His smile on your face and bam gear change. Repeat. Fuckin great.
