What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Noice!

 

Everything I’ve read indicates the 2.7L 2TR-FE is multiport injection (port) not direct injection so no catch can for me. I do run a tank of Shell mid grade or premium on occasion for the cleaning additives.

 

Toyota no longer makes purely gasoline direct injection engine anymore, they are either port injection or dual injection
of course, the Supra doesn't count as it's not a Toyota

 

Best read in the voice of Cliff Calvin

 

Under high engine loads the 2GR-FKS uses direct injection so a catch can might still be beneficial. It’s only in low to mid engine loads that it uses a combination of direct and/or port injection.

 

Only time the DRL come on, as DRL's is in "auto mode". When you put it into what you call DRL (Yellow) the DRL switches to just running lights. The "Yellow" is running lights. Oh and your fogs if you have them.

 

Where did you get the wrap?

What part of the country do you live in? Not many people have basements out there. I'm in New england.

 

I stand corrected.

 

You said you weren’t sure so not a correction just some input to clarify

 

What did you get hung up on? I'll be installing my UCAs in a few weeks and would love to learn how you overcame the issue.

 

Clavin?

 

They're talking about Cliff Clavin, the postman character on the 80s bar sitcom Cheers. He was the know-it-all guy we've all run into. Probably spellcheck changed Clavin to Calvin or they were typing too quickly.

"Interesting little article here. It says that, uh… the average human being only uses 17% of his brain. Boy, you realize what that means? We don’t use a full, uh… 64%."

- Cliff Clavin.

"Regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That’s why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

- Cliff Clavin.

 

Latches? Not touching those lol.

 

Thanks for the clarification. That’s what I was thinking. Calvin threw me off. Cheers (no pun intended) Ok, pun intended

 

The truck isn't even close to loud with the Nitto's, but there is a bit more highway noise than I prefer with how often I end up being on the phone while driving the truck, so I deadened the back wall with some Second Skin Damplifier Pro this weekend. I've used a few different brands in the past and this definitely has the thickest foil and it is incredibly sticky. I only notice a small difference in road noise so far but I am able to run the radio at a lower volume with just this one panel done so it must be helping (usually 35+ and today was 25-30). I have enough leftover to do the rear doors with this kit too it looks like, but I am waiting for some replacement door clips to show up before I yank those panels off because those clips love to break. Should have them done before the week is done so I'll update in my next post how much both sections helped (then again when I do the front doors - need more deadening).

With 1 sheet on:



Done @ ~4.5 sheets:



EDIT:
Finally got to drive at speed last night and I will say the difference at 60+ is much more noticeable than I was expecting. Even more excited to do the doors now.

 

I think he's talking about the long bolt on the uca.
We had to do some trimming and pounding to get it out.
Talked to my tuner Paul after and he gave me the secret.... buy new uca bolts and just cut the head off if the old one and pull/reinstall from the other side where there's plenty of room.
