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

I finally figured out why my truck has been running super rich after I put the blower and 7th injector on. I had hooked the fuel pressure regulator to the boost port like the instructions said and apparently when you install the 7th injector, that is not needed. I hooked the FPR to a regular vacuum port on the intake tube and now my A/F ratio is looking a lot better. It's still a little rich but I have a smaller pulley ordered from URD, which should be here tomorrow, so that should even it up some more.

 

I changed my rear diff fluid. it needed it. I dont think it has been done in years.

 

I started off with just one side, in my mind it seemed like too much to do both (for my tastes), figured if I did want to do both I could just do the other side later...kinda the opposite of what you're doing haha

 

Spent 5 hours and $15 in quarters washing the exterior and interior of my truck, as well as claybarred and waxed it. The paint is so smooth now!

 

i always do all my diffs, t case and trans at the same time....

Installed ARB bumper and 17 inch FJ steel wheels with Dunlop 265/70/17's that come on the factory FJ's. I got a stellar deal all 5 of them and they all have excellent tread. Next is putting on my 5100's with OME springs and Total Chaos upper control arms.

 

WOW!

 

IMO I'd just remove the stripes or make them shorter in length, eg have them meet the flare closer to center. And maybe fatten the stripes up just a smidge.

 

Just ordered a few things...

Cree Q5 7W LED reverse bulbs
Philips Crystal Vision Ultra headlight bulbs
14" Magnaflow muffler

Should all be in before Friday, and I'll get the muffler installed Saturday!

 

Did a little exploring today.

 

Oh just a little cutting and welding

 

You shouldn't even bother posting in here, you deserve your own thread!

 

Very very nice man! I like your choices. You'll like em

 

Haha I thought you would, I got the lighting ideas right off of your build!

 

Changed my spark plugs and wires and fuel filter.

And because we are all only here for the pics:

 

Hey just making sure, you got 921 bulbs instead of 1156 for the reverse lights right? The reverse bulbs switched from 01+ FYI

 

After being tired of buying cassette tape adapters for my iphone, I decided to buy a double din. Went with the Pioneer AVH-X4500BT. Should have put this money toward my lift, but my tax return has been burning a hole in my pocket haha.
