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

Got it mostly cleaned. Plenum and TB too.

 

these motors can take the rev's so don't worry about shifting high when needed

sounds similar to when my truck was stock on 31's.

 

When I had a 3RZ I'd let it sing. Getting on the highway, 4000+ RPM, around town I dunno, 3000-3500. If you don't get near its peak output RPM it seems slow.

 

this

gotta let 'er eat

 

It ain't a 22R-E, DOHC is license to rev and it has a redline for a reason, anything under that is fair game anytime... They're not fragile

 

I will say that my latest oil analysis did show more wear in Al and Iron. I've been increasingly harder on the motor since there had been no change in oil samples, and I guess I found where the safe limit it is for my motor. That interval it spent a good bit more time on limiter and sustained high rpm heavy loads climbing large grades at high elevation. it was a 9k mile interval too so I'll go back to the standard 5k changes

 

The kits are kits.

 

Its on my to do list to go swap my horn relay on my 1999, anyone do one recently?

 

I haven't done one recently but it is under the hood in the fusebox, super easy to get to.

 

I… uh…

It’s also a Dually? Haha

 

Suicide doors cuh. Sickkkk

That'd be the ultimate flex on the trail

 

I thought the horn relay was in the dash fuse box area. Good to know!

 

That poor thing. There’s a squatted 1st gen I see around town that just makes me sad to see.

 

You're totally right it is on the back side of the relay panel in the dash. I was thinking of the headlight relay.

 

There is a Tacoma on Maui that has red bumpers silver doors green bed and black cab. I’d still rather that than the dually

 

It's appropriate that it has the 98-00 front end. I can't tell if that's a dually or just a super wide tire

 

Those whitewalls are just too far

 

Look at the passenger side. Definitely a dually.

 

Needs a stepside bed too

 

Nah some fiber glass flared fenders.
