What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Did you buy it or fab it up?

 

I am not a fan of hunting automatic transmissions.
On our RAV4 and my new Tacoma, I use either ECT mode, or lock the trans into D3 for slow streets, and D4 for faster ones.
This is as close as I will get to a MT from here on out... I do miss the MT, but it was Unobtanium in a new model late in the year.

 

HUBBA HUBBA...

 

Its a 50 State K&N intake with the Airaid TB spacer and AFE exhaust. The spacer is the new contraband piece. So, like, .0003 HP.

 

The "hunting" makes me want to go full Negan on my own cranium.

 

Found a roll of it on Amazon. Used ton snips to cut them bend. Used the tw

Made it. The material comes in a 15 in roll similar to aluminum foil. Used tin snips and plastic hammer to form around piece of angle iron.

 

Thank you, Merry Christmas to you

 

I installed an HPS Intake tube to the factory CAI. With or without a performance gain, it’s worth the mod just for added space in engine bay with no resonator.

Super tough install. Been struggling with a good solution to have Kleenex readily available with such limited space.

my kids found these at Target and bought me a 3-pack. Should last me a year!

fit perfectly in the tiny cup holders.

(note the center storage bin has other stuff in it and best I can fit in there are the little travel packs and they are often a pain to get them when driving).

love this!

 

RUH-ROH ... those lookings skawy!

 

Work done on Christmas Eve.
Added a few nicknacks to the truck. Front emblem tint, grille badge, center console organizer and gas cap holder.

 

Personally, I experienced an improvement in acceleration.

 

This happened.


it is probably worth the drive.

 

I’ll take any improvement, that’s good to know. Thank you.

 

Yesterday was the oversized cup holder and today, the voltmeter/usb ports. If I’d have known that the voltmeter alone would take four hours, I’d never had ordered it, done now.

 

~Is that your 2 cents?

Why did it take 4 hours? Is it direct and not on the old cigarette lighter harness?

 

This thing makes me want to find something to replace the qi charging button with, and get rid of that pad I’ve used once in 3 years.

Make sure you have “her” with you!

 

I wish it was only $10…

 

Well, there’s a couple of ounces of adult beverage I won’t get back…..
