    Everything but the driveshaft. B03A - 410
    I drove by tonight and the price is back up to $2.13 per gallon. Somebody must have screwed up on pricing last week. Oh well. Back to the grind.

    Well the majority on here will suggest tundra brakes when you *probably* dont need them. If your truck is a daily driver, doesn't tow much and not on huge tires, stock brakes are more than enough. A good set of Ceramic pads like Akebono and a good blank rotor from Centric or Brembo followed by a good flush and bleed of the fluid will be more than adequate.

    The C battery is a standard size of dry cell battery typically used in medium-drain applications such as toys, flashlights, and musical instruments. As of 2007, C batteries accounted for 4% of alkaline primary battery sales in the United States.

    So essentially the same as me. I like my stock brakes. Certain members on here will say Im full of BS and that I need Tundra brakes in order to stop safely, but I just ignore them.

    For the record, Oreilly's is still running a 15% off brake bundle deal right now (pads and 2 rotors/drums). Ive done a few brake jobs on other peoples cars using their stuff and its done well. Their ceramic pads are made by Bosch, or so Im told. With the sale it brings the price down to about what you'd pay on RockAuto once their stupid high shipping prices are added in.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Found a full-size matching spare in the IS300, looks like it hasn't been used. Tire says made in Japan and has a date code of 2002. Thankfully it has been outta the sun and weather so it's pretty decent.

    Also found out someone put really nice speakers in the car but just never amplified them or installed a head unit worth a damn.
