What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Now you're talkin!!!!!

 

Looks so excellent!!!!

 

There's always a showoff in the bunch!!!! That's hot!!!!!

 

Yea, them are the special ones. The sleepers. I like going fast!!!

 

That's super clean there! Nice job!

 

I agree. I own 3 nitro r/c boats and there is a lot of stress and vibration on those high rpm motors. We have always used the red but sparingly as well.

 

I did mine last weekend, same as you and I'm enjoying the results a lot, especially when I play CDs

 

That really does look excellent.

 

Lots of CF, Ohlins, Yes, I like it.

 

The devils horn emblems don't snap in like the OEM. They have screws to fasten them on. Somebody would have to remove the grill to get it.

 

Derped bumper caps. Probably should have done them in place. I broke so many clips.

 

Painted center cap emblems matte black!

 

Today my old but trusty Yakima Outdoorsman 300 towers received another upgrade, bringing them up to version 3.2! I've been using these same towers for the last 15 years, on three different generations of Tacomas! When I got my 3rd gen, a local fabricator welded on a new base plate to match up with the bed rails. However, I took the cheap route and painted it myself...bad idea. The quality of my work was pretty poor and it started rusting pretty good. So a year and a half later I broke it all down and sent it out to get sand blasted and powder coated, and I couldn't be happier with the results!

 

Very nice! I have the "tall guy with a bad back version", an '09 FZ1. I could only stand about 15 minutes on our R6 we had...loved the thrill of high RPM's on those though!

 

Have any side view photos of you tires and rims???

 

My DD is an Audi A4. Fun to drive and pretty damn good mileage...

Edit: This was a trip to LA including stop and go traffic.

As opposed to my avg mpg in my 3rd gen.

 

Toyota gave me a hat today

 

Damn good is an understatement! That’s like my wife’s Corolla! Nice!

 

Yeah... as you can see from my average speed, that was a trip to Los Angeles in stop and go traffic. Usually get around 35 mpg without traffic.

 

Pressured washed undercarriage, washed truck, clay bared, finishing polish to remove swirls, Jetseal. Makes for a long day but done till fall.
