    New ones are pretty close but some of the optional Toyota stuff is standard in the Lexus. In my year you got a car phone built in, some softer springs and shocks, and special LX wheels that look almost the same, of and some trim that you cannot find anymore so LX guys steal Toyota interior pieces.

    iHOP is a place you go to for breakfast.

    Conversely, you don't go to Denny's. You end up at Denny's.

    I always expect a giant Lego man to be behind the wheel of them.

    They do look badass when built up though.

    Alright who wants to write my letter of recommendation to the Compton School of Hoodrat and Ghetto Shit? I just used a generic 19mm 12pt socket and hammered it onto my locking nuts on the cruiser to remove them and it worked for all four. This is of course after I broke the $35 extractor that didn't work at all.

    I didn't really wanna bust out the welder, plus I think stick welding is the only type that would fit. But I was so surprised this worked, I can see why locking nuts are pointless. That was easier than trying to make the extractor do its job.

    This guy I know did a v8 swap on one and has it on 37’s watched it go over things so easily i almost pissed myslef in excitement.
    And that is why locking lugs are a waste of money. If they want your wheels they will take your wheels.

    I like US Egg, local Phoenix chain but has huge portions for cheap. Denny's charges you 13 for half an egg and a sausage haha

    Denny's tried to class it up and that's when they lost me. Lucky for me we have plenty of dive casinos that have that old Denny's feel with prices to match. Otherwise those local breakfast establishments are the best even though a little pricey.

    Nations is the shit. It’s sort of like a diner. They have pies, burgers, things like that. Their pies are the best.

    It’s a very very local chain though. I doubt there are any outside the Bay Area.
