    Haha still very much an option. Tundra was to replace runner. this is to add to the runner. If I found the right tundra, I’d have a hard time not getting one.

    The 86 is going to be a daily/fun car. Anything that isn’t a trip or to snow. Found a couple good deals so all that is left is to decide on color.

    I’m a big fan of the 860 special edition, but with a couple upgrades, the base 86 would essentially be the same (if not better) car.

    I like blue, black, and grey. Need to choose. Seems like dealers I’ve been to are really struggling to sell so I’m gonna try to talk them down a bit more.

    Well. Definitely not joining the 86 forum... They act like that car is crazy expensive and anybody under 30 who owns one is being an idiot. It’s really not a crazy expensive car. Spent about 10 min on that site. Not going back lol

    ft86 club isn't that bad. I like watching the LS swaps.

    Also this build is pure sex.

    I want bronze next

    took a 20 second video but too lazy to figure out how to import it. Will get some good pictures later this week when I officially wire them up. Just connected them to my existing harness for the spots.

    I like that. Getting rid of the roof bar?

    I'm hoping when I see these wired up with the spots, it'll be all I need. Then for back up lights and I'm all good, hopefully.

    Anyone interested in some OME 60004 rear shocks? I bought the them locally but ended up using different suspension on my 4th gen 4Runner. They only have about 900 miles on them. $130 shipped to the lower 48.

    Picking it up at 1-2. Pretty stoked! That means 4Runner gets to be loaded down ready to go at all times.

    Getting base model, TRD Sway Bars, TRD Filter, TRD Spoiler, and Premium Audio/Nav.

    Pretty happy with it. Wish it had the intake too, but I can add one. The special edition TRD exhaust on that thing is so loud. Actually happy I don’t have that haha

    Bad ass dude! I test drove an FR-S before buying my GTI, and then again before buying my Fiesta. One day the stars will align and I’ll
    actually pull the trigger haha.

    At first I was underwhelmed test driving, but once I had a cool dealer who actually let me mess with it a bit, I really liked it. I don’t need 0-60 speed lol. Love the way that thing handles.

    Seriously only thing I might change aside from cosmetics like tail lights is to throw a cold air intake on it. Other than that, trying to leave it alone and just enjoy it so all my money can go into the runner.

    The N/A builds are cool and fairly cheap but probably dumb if you don’t track it. Light weight crank pulley, oil cooler, tune etc.
    It’s a nice car for sure, I just couldn’t put a bike inside of it so I keep buying hatchbacks. But now I have that e-golf that I can’t even drive to Phoenix hahahaha. I’ll probably buy a motorcycle
