What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Short iPhone video of the new Aero Turbine 2525XL. Watch in 1080p!

iPhone does it no justice...it's much more throaty and much deeper sounding in real life. But it sounds GREAT! Very happy with the purchase. Only $94 from ebay.

until the next one

 

Just noticed this. Is your bedside "hand" decal the hand from the Evil Dead movie cover???

 

Blah

 

Haha kinda looks like it, huh?? haha but no it's the Zombie Response Team decal.

 

Kindly introduced it to dirt as I spent the day in Ocotillo Wells

 

Sounds good! What made you choose the 2525 over say the 3030 or 5050? Just wondering what the difference is?!

 

I did this yesterday but didn't get pics up until today. Thought I would share my success with the help a another member around my area (alexrosado) we hooked up new halo headlights, did a quick horn relocation, and painted behind the grill. I think it had a great outcome and am really happy how good it looks.

It went from this


To this.


And here is how she sits as of now.

 

It's ok to paint the radiator? Any special paint?

 

Yeah from what I read it doesn't do any harm, there are people out there that will bash me for doing this but its ok, I did what I thought would look good and it doesn't effect it too much... just make really light sprays

*I used high temp BBQ spray paint.

 

Any paint works, flat black looks stealth

 

I would think it would have some sort of negative effect on the radiator but hell I've seen a lot of guys on here do it and it looks great! Should make my satoshi "pop" I need to do this ASAP

 

I would never do that because adding paint on the fins changes the characteristics of the radiator's ability to cool the engine. That being said though, I don't seem to recall anyone here having any problems with painted radiators.

 

My thought would be if you glob it on you could close off some fins but as previous poster said no one has had an issue yet nice job

 

Just seems like suicide

 

I just painted the sides of my radiator, didn't touch the fins

 

The thing he painted was his air conditioning condenser, the radiator is behind it. Shouldn't make much of a difference in heat transfer, or people wouldn't paint their valve covers, engine blocks, etc.

 

I realize that he painted the condensor. That is why I said that globs could close off fins. The air must pass thru the condensor to get to the radiator if the condensor fins are closed then the air will not pass thru to the rad

 

Pretty sure he painted the radiator as well.....

 

who cares, let him paint it and see what happens
