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

what kind of finish is that on the calipers?

 

Wow that thing is built very nicely. Nice score.

 

Not sure really that’s the way they came. They tripped me kind of a translucent finish.

Thanks! Dude that built it did a great job clean work everywhere on everything he definitely knew his shit. Got like five boxes of parts with it and front and rear cbi bumpers too

 

Gotta be getting close to 151 hp now with the blue.

 

Jesus. Score man.

How many miles? What did you pay?

 

Wait a minute, was the red one on KSL?
Gotta be

how much for that stock skid?

 

Took delivery of another beater to keep miles off the Toyotas. But this one gets the Tacoma's parking space.

 

That bad huh?

 

102xxx Dam it it was up there. Bug me more and I might slip out what I paid. But it was more than the parts list he sent me for sure.

Timing belt was replaced when the supercharger was installed at 92K miles. Only factory Toyota parts. (Original owner replaced the belt at 56K miles.)

Yes it was. Had my eye on it from day 1 Hustled hard to get it. The Skid is in your future if want it. It’s not going anywhere. There is a trans skid to.

 

Oh what an LED strip can do

 

Just tedious... I'm glad I did it, I'm glad it's done... would prefer not doing it again.

 

Ooof haha a lot. A lot alot haha

But cool truck man.

 

Really awesome looking truck. Looks like we have identical rear suspension setups, can't say I've seen any other trucks with the same setup.

 

I only know of two others that had the TC kit installed..not that's "everyone" that has but yeah.

 

Mainly just meant the ADS / TC combo, but even just seeing the TC outboard kit alone is pretty rare.

Speaking of, do you still have a kit laying around? Still planning on installing it?

 

AH. Yeah there was one dude that had ADS double bypasses with the TC kit. Not very active though.

And I do and I think so yes.

 

Igor?

 

Yeah that's my plan anyways.

 

I jus need the tin can front two, unless the trans skid is fancy

 

Hmm, I don't recall seeing that truck.

Right on, I've been very happy with the outboard setup.
