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

Not a particularly safe way to tell but you can either spray water and listen for slurping sounds or you can use some flammable spray like starter fluid and see if it revs up more. Is is the grey or the black supercharger?

 

Ha that'll be the day...

 

When you get there, start making the damn trucks small again too. Can't call em mini trucks any more at best they're just smaller than a full-size and not by a lot.

 

Usually a vacuum leak would give you issues at higher rpms right? What have you done for fuel mods if any? Could be a vacuum leak though. Can you rev it back up and have it run fine again at higher rpms?

 

Does anyone even manufacture a "compact" truck anymore? I don't know if the Ranger is still in production still but that's the only other compact truck I can imagine.

 

With no load he wouldn't experience any of the 5vz pinging issues under boost. But his idle is suspiciously high.

 

I sure as hell wish they were bolted. They're pressed into the knuckle with immense force.

 

Not in the US but in other counties they still do

 

Ranger is coming back at a reasonable size, but otherwise no not really. Gotta make these ones last until another gas crisis when people freak out about driving small vehicles (no matter how poor on mpg they may still be, it's all about looks)

 

The Nissan Frontier is as small as it gets from what it looks like here:

Come to LA the gas crisis is real - I thought I was on something when I looked and saw the price of gas in AZ lol

 

Grey blower. No fuel mods, 7th injector on order. If I give it gas it tries to respond but won't. There's three mystery vacuum ports that I can't figure out one on the back of the blower. It's a 90 degree elbow turning left. The second I believe is the PCV valve. And the third comes off of the intake tube.

 

California is just nuts haha. I paid 2.17 at Costco and filled my cruiser for like $35 haha

 

Dumb question. They're all hooked up right? Maybe take a pic of how you have it set up?

 

I completely forgot about the Nissan Frontier. Funny I actually have a Gentex 313 rearview mirror out of a Nissan Titan.

 

I feel like another gas crisis would just cause a surge of popularity in fully electric cars. You know electric cars have been around since the 1900's? Battery technology just wasn't there.

 

I already heard the bad news, I just want manual hubs on my truck!

 

Wait what's have to do with the UBA?
Manual hub conversion isn't that bad. All you need are new steering knuckles and CV's.

 

They made both an electric car and a gas car at the same time. The guy driving the electric car just couldn't get any chicks in it, so there you go.

 

The three in question aren't hooked up. There were no ports for the intake tube and PCV valve tube. There was no tube for the port on the back of the blower. I already headed home. I'll have pics tomorrow.
