Manual transmission Fan Club and BS thread (All Generations Welcome)

I'm also ready to buy, but I think I'm gonna hold off and let my warranty expire first

I'll be doing 4.88s myself but the time was way easier and cheaper and actually fixes a vast majority of the trucks root issues. The 4.88s will be a nice added touch to the tune, or in your case vice versa.

 

Hahaa yeah for sure ,,

 

Do we get a tw discount ? Resistance is futile ,,,

 

I don't think so. But I haven't read every page from his thread. It's somewhat out of control lol

 

This is how I adjust the rear drums on my VW Bus about every 5-8k... Guess I'll be doing the Tacoma here soon too.

 

pics of bus plz

 

this should help you.

1st gear @ 10 MPH = 1879rpm
2nd gear @ 20 MPH = 1908rpm
3rd gear @ 30 MPH - 1870rpm
4th gear @ 40 MPH = 1879 RPM
5th gear @ 50 MPH = 2007rpm
6th gear @ 60 MPH = 2040

6th gear @ 65 downshift to 4th gear:
2210 rpm increase to 3069 rpm

 

I used to look at the tachometer and I've made it a mission to stop looking at it and solely rely on my hearing. I've been having less problems doing it this way.

 

I just don't even double clutch.

 

sound, vibration, and feeling of inertia/momentum is all you need. you gotta stop the thinking and mental processing and simply tune in to your senses. it's the greatest thing about the MT trucks. these things are just crazy fun to drive if you let yourself get into the feeling of it.

 

no we're just trying to get you happy. you spent what, 35k or more in your truck? you are entitled to enjoy it without compromise.

'yota cannot detect the tune as stated. the developer has the same tools the dealers have so they know for a fact what can be detected.

 

Well, you definitely worded it the way that I wanted it to be expressed. I feel like I've clicked with this truck and it is an extension of my body. haha.

 

Anyone use cruise control on the highway for better MPGs?

 

that's my experience every time i drive. i actually didn't expect how much fun is on tap here.

 

Almost 100% of the time.
