1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I'll even give you the advantage. You can keep the micro tires and I'll help you take every bit of weight off your truck. And I'll keep the 35s and all my full usual weight tent and all. But I really don't think you want that. I firmly believe you would prefer to live in a world where you can keep posting that video and claiming you stand a snowballs chance. But hey I'll be down in the southwest in a couple of weeks if you want to pop over to line them up you'll have an even bigger advantage then cuz I'll have all my camping gear. You have such a less than zero chance at this the only way I would be concerned about it is if I had to do it with flat tires. You wouldn't be arguing with me at all if your ego wasn't just as fragile

 

Phoenix for xmas?? I'll be there but in the van tug of war?

 

We could do Tucson at some point, they have an actual drag strip and the owners put on all sorts of fun grudge matches

 

jesus christ fellas save some puss for the rest of us

 

You can have them, I just came for the dick swinging competition.

 

The nerd in me is doing a new playthrough of Link's Awakening



Wife bought it for me some years ago when it came out and I just had the urge for some retro gaming

 

Fine piece of equipment you’ve got there. I’m playing sekiro while I wait for my injectors to show up from motorwest. Haven’t thrown the controller through the window yet lol

 

Way too high of a learning curve for me to mess with

 

I had a 1998 3rz a340 2wd 4 runner

The cruise control on it held 70 better than in my 01 limited v6 auto 4x4 4 runner despite the 3rz having 90psi of compression on all cylinders

The 3rz felt like it had more midrange, lesser top end end and no low end compared to the 5vz

 

The forerunners came with better gearing for whatever reason. 4.30 and 4.56 were much more common.

 

My 3rz 4 runner had 3.90 gears... threw some 4.10s on it and it felt like I gave it 30 hp

 

This one was a 4.30 truck. Somebody pulled the diff and then left it on the ground lol.

My 3RZ Tacoma also does surprisingly well at highway speeds--as long as you're on a flat. It'll hold 80 comfortably but you'd better downshift the moment you see a hill ahead of you*.

*Disclaimer, I do spend most of my time at or above 6,000ft and many of the "hills" are extended 5+% grades. All things considered it does pretty well as long as you don't mind giving it some beans in 3rd or 4th.

 

Add a pinch of weigt to my 5vz Tacoma and 4 runner and they would downshift to 2nd cruising on the highway... like why the fuck are we damn near redline to go up a 40 foot tall hill

Now I own a manual trans versa, zf5 swapped my f150 and have gotten the manual swap parts for my d150

Idk what I'm going to do when the manual goes extinct

 

Now thats a deal. 100$ more over the saw base price gets you 2 12ah and a charger

 

We have a strip here at a mile high. Would certainly tip the scales your your favor lol

 

See if you would have just come to death valley we could race from 283 ft below sea level haha

 

i wana see this happen.


in other news i hope to make a trek out to the west next year to visit some family. i might bring one of the trucks or the mr2. (although the lack of 93 out there posses issues with my compression being so high.. meh)
