Northern Virginia Roll Call

OTT tune for 3rd gen review: If you are sick of the constant downshifting its a no question asked cheap modification that brings smiles. The overdrive lockout via ECT can be accomplished by going into "manual" mode and allows the ECT button to be used to a different throttle settings.
OTT defines their throttle responses in hot sauce labels: medium, spicy, race.

Ended up going with Spicy and Race via ECT button. My main thing was the annoying constant downshifting when cruising on the interstate which got fixed. Flashing the ECU took 10minutes so its a very quick modification. For those who were debating on it: DO IT.

 

Although I don't have this tune (I have the yotawerx tune) I will agree that any update to our tune is a vast improvement!!! You should seriously consider this for your next upgrade.

 

Morning all. I've done lots and lots of looking with not a whole lot of results but wanted to ask here. Do any of you guys know of a pick and pull type place in the NOVA area? I've been up here since 2019 and don't know of any places like that but maybe you guys might have a lead or two.

 

I'm pretty sure there is one down in Stafford/Fredericksburg off route 1. Not exactly NOVA but that's the closest one I can think of. I've never actually gone to it, just driven by it, so I'm not sure how good it is.

 

Do you know the name of the place?

 

Ah, disregard. Looks like it's called Pick A Part. I'm gonna have to keep that in mind! Thank you!

 

That is the one I was about to mention as it is not too far from our hood.

 

You ever been there before? How is it in terms of selection and whatnot? I've got a 2001 4Runner that I sometimes want parts for.

 

Oh dang a Vagabond on the east coast. Let's see more pics

 

There's one in Thurmont maryland too. I think it's called Chaz's. Not sure how many Toyota's they have though

 

That place on rt 1 is down the road from me and it looks like it's got a lot of vehicles. Isn't there one in manassas also on 234? I drive by it all the time. Speaking of, I need to tell my bud to keep any Tacos in the tow lot for me that he ends up towing! (redmonds)

 

No sir.

 

There is. It's down the street from me. I can't remember the name of it though.

There also used to be one at route 1 and Old Stagecoach road in Dumfries. But I'm not sure it's still there.

 

just throwing it out there and a drive from you..

This place isn’t to far from me (Hanover co.) They dismantle and sell the parts. http://www.bruceautoparts.com/index.html Trust me when I say do not search parts on your phone. Smacking your pee pee with a tack hammer would be less painful. Every vehicle ever made is listed. And you search by year, vehicle, item. A Whole vehicle search will not work.

There is also Chesterfield Auto Parts as well, which is an actual pick and pull. https://chesterfieldauto.com/

 

Thanks Bill, I appreciate that. I miss having a pick n pull nearby, but I'm trying to make due, lol.

 

Yeah man, No problem.

 

Toyotas & Coffee Sunday 8-10 in Frederick MD. Was a pretty cool event last month when I went. Thinking about going again Sunday. Anyone interested?

 

That's right! Just down the road from you!!

 

We went to a car show in Fredericksburg today and ran into
@Tactical_Panda. It was nice to finally see him and his truck in person.

 

Car show in f'burg? Didn't know about any.
