    Roger that. I work Saturday night so probably around 2 would be the time I'd be aiming for. (Pun intended):D I'll let you know if anything comes up before then.

    So... anyone in Austin have a supercharged 1st gen that would let me take a look? We just got back from a climbing trip to Wyoming and the truck is pretty pokey fully loaded going up those passes. After the seats and the RTT might as well throw more money on the bonfire.

    There's a guy we know, lives in south east Austin. However, he's not on TacomaWorld.

    His truck IS insanely epic.

    God that does sound epic.

    I should probably introduce myself. I've had my 2004 TRD 4x4 MT Extended Cab since 2005. It currently has a camper top with Rhino Rack bars and a James Baroud Grand Raid Evo XXL. Back in 2008 I installed Icon Extended Coil Overs and their billet UCA up front and their reservoir shocks in back. Stock leafs still... that's going to change this fall. Some teflon coated 15" alloys that I think are American Racing. The tent is recent within the last year and the last thing I did to the truck was install some Corbeau GTS II seats and retrofitted factory cruise control. Oh yeah, and I extended the rear diff breather and installed a cheap single DIN stereo. It is our camping / climbing vehicle, used to be the DD but the extra height of the tent made parking at work difficult.

    When the truck was newer to me I spent a lot of time on ttora but never posted much.

    Other cars:
    I've got a 1988 M3 project car... spun a bearing, decided to DIY the rebuild: https://s14net.vbulletin.net/forum/...t-cars/1229852-engine-rebuild-and-scope-creep

    Finally, I share a Lotus Exige S with my brother and I daily an E63 wagon.

    Ha! Well that won't give me a feel for what a stockish truck is like with a SC.
