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

If you see one for $1500-1700 please post a link if you don’t mind. I never see them for under $2000. Hell, some dude just hawked one with a dynamic tensioner, 7th injector kit and thermostat for $3500 on here.

 

Will do

I've been kicking the idea of an SC for mine... but I've been too busy doing everything else to it this year.

 

Put this in my tranny tonight

 

Im putting something else in my tranny tonight

 

Make sure you pump it well.

 

I think I'm around 3.5 - 4 with mine maxed and the SPC in the usual setting. I don't have much lift in the front anymore though .

It's pretty easy to dial in camber with the SPC. You should be able to get it less than a degree.

 

I hate to say it, but whoever bought it sure was dumb. Brand new ones go for that much.

Next alignment I'm gonna try and do it myself that way and see how it comes out.

I'm sure my shits a little tweaked, but as long as it's not stanced out and drives all right, I'll be happy.

 

Yeah, I saw the thread with the $3500-firm price so I watched it. Posted last Friday, sold Monday. I mean it had those extras with it and some maintenance parts (oil, belts etc) but still. Couldn’t believe it myself.

 

Not with the 7th injector, those kits go for nearly $1,000 brand new. But depending on it's condition it still seems a little steep

 

Did you ever use the software to dial your 7th back in? I was pretty sure I gave the VM to you, but if you still need it lemme know.

 

Speaking of pre runners for scorching deals, I got this one for $1200. 270k KM’s on it. Around 160 k miles? The guy and his wife told me they had 100+ phone calls in 15 minutes of the ad going up. I was first! And the look on their faces when I drove away was hilarious! It needed a MAF sensor, front O2 sensor, and the frame has some issues. I could tell they were expecting me to turn around and ask for my money back!!

 

That's crazy low priced. Might be the cheapest price I've seen paid for a running, driving double cab tacoma

 

Little did they know what you're capable of

 

It well could be. And it drives beautiful now. It's getting a 4x conversion shortly, and becoming the wheeling rig.

And man, did I get offers from people when I showed it off on IG and local groups. All lowball of course

 

Yea, this has gotten out of hand!! All I wanted was a convertible!!

 

Lmfao... well, you got one.

 

Haven't attempted it yet I'm afraid, you did send me a link to the Windows VM though awhile back yes. Between that and the exact 7th injector maps I received from another member with the same setup as me, I should be able to get it where I want it.

Its been better since I learned to keep my RPMs at 2500 at least to avoid ping under load when I hit boost. Since I got used to that I've been revving out each gear longer to keep RPMs from falling below 2500 when I upshift. The custom maps another user sent me should give me a little more leeway there though

 

I got mine fore $600 bucks. Just needed rebuilt. Then I spent all the monies on getting the parts to mount and use it. So total was around 1200ish.

Nice.


I passed on a black 03 Limited TRD with sun roof and a TRD blower for $4500. Had 330k on it. Was in clean shape though. So...much....regret.

Should have grabbed it.
