    Not much from what I hear.

    In fact some of our trucks come from the factory with NGK plugs on one side of the engine and Densos on the other.

    I know what you mean. xD So far I have only forked out like $360 for the new tires. Thought it was going to be $320 at first, but my buddy, who put in the order (he was getting tires for his 4-runner, so we ordered together) screwed up on the shipping part when initially checking the price, (he put the wrong zip code in the shipping calculator :facepalm:) so I found out I actually have to pay $360 instead of $320. And I'm about to start forking out more money for parts- gotta get the head redone, new windshield, new battery, new corner lights, back half of the exhaust (giant rust hole in the pipe I can put my hand in), belts, and that's just the stuff we definitely know needs to be replaced. We'll find out what else needs to be replaced most likely when we go to put the truck back together after rebuilding the motor. Probably drain all of my savings to get this truck running/good for inspection, but at least I know that I'll have a damn good truck for cheaper than I would have paid to buy it already in good condition.

    Psh, inspection...:D

    I love living where we don't need no stinkin' inspection. It means I can cram a small block chevy into and rx7 and terrorize with open headers and nobody cares lol.

    Are you re-doing the lower end of the engine?

    Just put in an Alpine 4ch amp and JBL GTO 6.5" components (front) and 6.5" coaxials (rear). Also replaced the lights in the gauge cluster and left off the orange gels so now I have white-ish dash lights.

    New headlights just showed up too so I get to replace the old fogged ones with some new clear plastic!

    Dang.... tjat's cool, man. I want his axles!

    Leterally.... I would LOVE to SAC my Taco with some u1300 axles. Would be expensive, but insanely strong with ridiculous amounts of clearance.
