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

How many miles on this truck? Damn that’s clean.

 

Hey, I appreciate it. Approximately 150,000 miles.

 

Considering how vsc controls the throttle and the only thing controlling the throttle is the ecu id assume the ecu would be special to a vsc truck

 

Dang. You’ll have it for years to come

 

See, it's not always squeaky clean. There is dust in between the gaps on the rack n pinion boot covers.

 

But how

 

Dude, I commend you for taking this project on. That's impressive.

 

You mean to tell me that truck has 150k and looks like it rolled off the showroom floor yesterday? Damn.

 

Had to have polished it and soaked it in degreaser

Not in that order

 

lol..it's a sickness. I'm extremely ocd, and cleaning my truck is my stress relief. I purchased it new, and I'm desperately trying to keep her looking new.

 

Right. It absolutely is. ETCS-I trucks have an entire other harness right there in the middle of the ECU.

Someone said earlier only the limited came with VSC. I think it’s all tied into the ETCS-I bullshit. Maybe the diagram is misleading. Don’t know.

I have a 02 4Runner ECU. Might swap it in and test the difference.

 

You're right man. I polish everything I can reach!

 

I can relate but... like i wash my lawnmower for some odd reason but the interior of my truck... nah

 

Vsc was not limited only, it was an option for most higher trim levels I believe. Super rare in tacos. Not as rare in 4runners

 

Well Might I say it’s paid off well. That things MINT I think it’s cleaner than half these under 20k ones popping up on bringatrailer and what not.

 

It was quite common in 4 runners

Considering how the limited trim was the highest selling trim

 

Last pics of my OCDness......and yes, I can assure you it looks like this alllllllllllllllll the time.

 

I bet the rope hooks are rusty!!

 

Did you peel the silicone off the ecu harness flange or was that just mine

 

lol...negative. I'll post a pict tomorrow when it's daylight.
