The SR thread, let's see them!

I don't seem em stopping the DCSB V6, now maybe only selling them to fleets yes, but not stopping production.

 

Yep I got it
Lasted a week and a day before I broke down and plasti dipped rims, they are still drying in the driveway while I'm cooling off, and then I'm gonna hit them with a few coats of glossifier, may have to roll them in garage over night to dry completely. I tinted windows and shaved badges and plastidipped the Toyota emblem also.

 

Looks great man!

I am going to be bummed if they decide not to sell the DCSB to the public with a V6,

I have proof they are selling them as a fleet truck through.

Although an SR5 would get dem nice Dark Satin alloy wheels

 

Thanks, I was torn I wanted those dark alloy wheels but all they had was a white sr5 and red sr5 with them and I wanted black, and part of our deal with employee pricing I have to buy car on the lot, they won't even dealer trade for us....well some dealerships will just depends what your buying.

 

Keep your eye out and a set will pop up soon enough.

Downside is you'll need different wheel sensors.

But they sure are good looking wheels!

 

I'll stick with my 25$ plasti dip wheels for now. I'll probably wait till I need tires to look for rims.

 

I would totally do that as well,

Looks sweet all "Murdered Out!"


What percentage is your tint?

 

5% on back doors and back window and 20% on front doors, I live in Ohio so it's illegal as shit(Ohio legal is 50% not even worth doing in my opinion) but I spend most my time in West Virginia and their legal is 35% I've had this on my camry and my tundra and my wife's highlander had 20% on fronts and never had any issues.

 

10-4,

That's EXACTLY what I would do on mine too.

It's good to see a reference though.

Just gotta be sure and have an in somewhere to get my State Inspections done, lol...

 

Well I luck out in that aspect, my County in Ohio has no inspection, Ohio doesn't anyways but some counties do e-checks. It's kinda nice, to not have to worry about it, I had a 95 Trans Am with a glaspack in place of the cat and straight pipes rest of way out.

 

Almost a month old. 2017 SR 4x4.

 

Anybody know how much these wheels weigh? I was told the TRD OR wheels are 25.5lbs which I think are a bit on the heavy side. In comparison, I was told the steelies are around 30 lbs.

 

OK drove in rain for first time today, gonna have to do intermittent wiper mod, annoyed me all the way home from work.

 

I felt the exact same way. Didn't think it would be an issue until a 20 minute drive in light rain changed my mind. Thankfully the mod is cheap and easy.

 

Yea, is there a cheap place to find the switch or do they all cost about $125 just glancing on Amazon that's what I saw.

 

If you are patient and search the part number on ebay, you can find them used and off wrecked vehicles for less. I got mine off a wrecked '16 Camry that had 8xxx miles. It is in great shape. There are a number of parts brokers that sell on ebay. If you have a junk yard nearby it might be worth a call as well. Many will tell you that $125 is well worth it for a new one as well. You do you.

 

I may hit up junk yard near by but yea if it's $125 it'll be worth it, I'm just trying to be cheap, same reason I bought an SR in first place,well that and the all black.

Thanks

 

Funny about the wiper switch as I was pretty determined to get rid of my base 4cyl 5-spd 2015 and I removed and sold the switch.
Missed it every time it rained.

Turns out me may keep it after all, SO I am hunting the version that is best for my truck again, Lol...



I am excited to see what the SR models bring to the table for 2018, Since V6 trucks have the trans cooler standard and TSS which means cruise somehow activated and setting changed with steering wheel controls. Also LED tail lights seem to be a standard now. Guess if your pushing safety all the way it makes sense.
