Kansas City Tacoma Crew - 816/913

hey now! tbh that would help to get my heap off jack stands lol

 

man i want to do that with mine so bad how much was it?

 

Provide donuts and they will come

 

haha that or tacos im hoping to knock a lot out this weekend and maaaaybe get it on all 4s again but something im missing is the metal sleeve things for the bushings and idk where to get any for the energy suspension bushings...

 

^ this guy gets it

 

About the only thing you can do with them is intake, exhaust, tune, charger. Then it is suspension work. They are pretty well set up from the factory. It never saw taillights to the 60 foot line and very few would hang in the twisties with it. The 2012 was the last year they did the n/a V8 in the S5

 

This is what I used

once the vehicle is clean it takes like 20-30 minutes top to apply. Super happy with it. I only used a little over half a bottle for my Tacoma.

 

ahh i gotcha sounds fun thou

 

ill have to give it a go! do you need to claybar the vehicle first?

 

Sounds nice, but it's just not something I want to spend money on

 

i went through the steps of all the stuff you need it about 90 bucks for all of it ill have to give it a shot on the si damn white cars get coated in shit...

 

It was. That is why it is gone now and I have a Taco. They say that the S5 is governed at 155. I can say without a doubt that it is not and it is happy at those speeds. It was so happy that it made you happy at those speeds and that was not a good thing. Going down the highway and you want to speed up about 5 mph? The car says you will be happier at speeding up 50mph and then shows you that you are. The whole time it feels like you are running about 80. Look down and you are going 130. You think you want to change lanes? Nope you are already there. Very fun car to drive. Too fun. But not fun on the pocketbook. The front brakes are $1400. Battery $500. The sprayers for the headlights $700.

 

Not sure if I've ever posted on here, but here's a picture of my 2018 Tacoma SR5 out at Tuttle Creek (I've since gotten rid of the camper shell and went to a bed rack/RTT set up). I'm stationed out at Fort Riley, KS but I'm originally from the Overland Park area and will be moving back there next month after I complete my contract. Read some stuff about the KCTC on here. I've been on the Facebook group for some time now and have noticed that the group is super clique-ish and there is tons of drama. It'd be cool to do some meet-ups with some of the folks on here. Look forward to seeing your trucks!

 

damn sounds fun! well besides all the maintenance lol

 

welcome! and yup that club has had lots of drama i joined shortly after when it first started but was never active until later on haha ive joined and left a few times now (mainly to watch the dumpster fire its always fun) but its always the same someone gets mad at someone and everyone is friends with that someone the club splits bla bla bla it just got old.
