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

You can join me in August!

 

Eh. Idk how well that'll work really. Hopefully we'll but not worth the wait. He knows the market is super small for that. I doubt he is in a rush.

I'm looking to turbo one of mine this winter. I think it'll be great. These motors will push 350hp easily and 400ftlbs with the right tweaks. The blower just will never get there.

 

Does it start yet

 

Yes and no. I know what's wrong. And working on a fix.

 

Well now I’m curious

 

From what I understand he’s not releasing any tunes. He’s releasing the software that allows one to tune it. I’d have to take it somewhere to get it done.

I just want the ability to tune timing based on gear and the torque converter lockup solenoid. That in itself you’d allow me to cut back on a lot of the timing retard I have in the map.

And Yeah the blower sucks really. I just don’t have the time to get into all that. And I really don’t trust the SCracing manifold enough to feel confident I won’t have to deal with leaks or cracks. But I would love a project single cab to turbo.

 

Not sure what one thing has to do with the other. But, you run a sway bar if it makes you feel better.

 

corroded bolt and melted the fuse box to a main fuse.

Im looking forward to a 300hp turbo awd single cab v6 Should be the most fun DD of all time far as im concerned.

Well hopefully it comes out. Not holding my breath. The blower is reliable and good for a small kick in the pants. coupled with a regear it quite awesome.

 

That crack drives me nuts.
Looks nice if tints you’re thing

 

I see the goods that come from it, I just driving to much at night to get anything that’d actually be worth it

 

I miss having tinted windows. Effing CA and it's laws strike again. I realize most people here get away with it but I got popped for it on my last car, so I'm going without it on the truck until we move.

 

Did a thing today

 

like...at all? no registration at all?

 

Ha I need to at least take off work 2 1/2 weeks to make that happen like I had to for Moab. And even then half that time would be spent driving. Sucks being on the wrong coast.

 

Wire it into your vss sensor by the throttle body. I can take a pic later if you need where I tapped in

 

Saved my ass yesterday. Engine caught fire right before emissions. Minimal damage.

Put the word out....

Old OE alternators are known to catch fire especially the older they are. This is fact now per mechanic's and databases in the industry. Many cases of the shielding and or harness shorting. Mine had 198k original miles

 

I still will never understand the whole covering your plate thing

 

Piss someone off online and you may find out. We had a vendor rip a ton of people off with an LED group buy years back... The amount of information you can get on-line and the ruining of lives you can accomplish... Name and address are pretty easy with a license plate. If you know the right person, DoB and phone number as well.

 

I can literally get more from just your name than I can with your license plate...

 

Ah fair enough. I did that with Frank. Got pulled over for it haha
