1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

the waitress i was chatting with at the gaybar during lunch on Monday was interesting, she was from Florida and I think is just a drifter waiting to move on westward to the rockies next

i told her to drive though SD and not my state coz boring as heck, it is

 

oooh you get the good shit? Or just the high dose Ibuprofen that doctors like to hand out when they think the DEA is watching

 

Meloxicam

 

I totally get that, it sounds like they were some really painful years.


On the other end of the spectrum I was "friends' with a lot of people who just always made me feel like shit and drug me down so my HS experience was also shitty. I would never go back

still thinking about that King Ranch

 

Ah, anti-inflammatory...no fun. But works well for joint pains

Yeah I remember having some friends like that at the school I ended up graduating from. High school years are rough man, I swear I felt like I was getting out of prison the day I graduated haha. Although I ended up spending twice the amount of time trying to get a bachelors degree than I spent in HS. But that's another long story

 

hmm...doesn't pass CA smog it says, wonder how he can sell it then without it being a parts vehicle. Not sure what "has to be referred" means but I guess it's a way around it

 

I think that's a typo, it has to be approved by the smog rep inspection.


In CO they only do a no CEL check and sniffer dyno test on OBD1 vehicles so I wouldn't sweat it here

 

I'd be afraid it has something to do with the 3.4l swap and maybe they didn't hook up all the emissions related stuff. Guess it wouldn't be that hard to do though. Hopefully they used a motor out of a newer vehicle otherwise it will never pass in CA

 

Would've finished the install all within an hour and a half or so.

Had to push it to today because I left my power tools in my storage; had to trim the speaker panel for the oversized magnet and basket on the new speakers.

 

Says it's a 2000 4runner. I thought you had to go to the CA referee after any swap so they can verify that all the stuff from the newer vehicle is in place and give you a sticker or something so the regular places can test it

sounds like he hasn't done that yet

You should know, right?

 

lol I wouldn't know for sure I've never done an engine swap. I do know that you can only use an engine from the same model year or newer, can't use one that's older. At least as far as gasoline engines go, I think there are different rules for diesel ones.

The fact it doesn't pass now maybe means it did and it just has a CEL or something, could be anything really. Nice T4R though

 

Must be flu season; whatever's going on in 3rd gen spread over to 2nd gen - https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/shawn-mecca-if-a-dick.630136/

Good thing us 1st genners are immune

 

Reminds me I need to get a flu shot...I've never gotten one before but with the wife being preggo it's more important that I do

That thread is about some dude on the TW FB page that's always stirring up crap, I don't think he has an account on here. I think him and @JKO1998 are real life friends though

 

If you had moved to my little school you've had been voted most popular. It was a small school and most of the same kids had all been together since 1st grade. They were all so tired of each other.
So anytime somebody new moved in, especially from out of state, they would instantly become the new star.

 

That sounds like Opposite Land...although it makes sense for a small town where everyone has known one another their whole lives. We were always in the suburbs of big cities where my dad's company was located

 

just like an exchange student that spoke a weird foreign language!

 

Yep. We had a few. So many of us wanted to learn their language -- whatever it was. We were culturally starved and we knew it.

 

Pulling a @GQ7227 and cleaning the underside of my truck; swapped the Fox rears back in as well.
