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

It's not accurate so who cares haha

 

Kind of what I was thinking... Haha

 

If you really wanted trans temp you'd just do like the diesel guys and drill a sensor into it

 

Im curious if you can hard tap the stock sensor...

 

It was just stated that the stock sensor is after the coolant so that wouldn't do you any good

 

Edit read the article haha my bad

 

That is badass! What brand is that? And how bad is the install on those?

 

Ultra Gauge. Just plug it into your OB connector.

 

So much of that has to do with outside ambient temps so it will be hard to make a comparison between Utah and where you are. Driving this morning my intake temps were 34-36* and engine temps were 175-186*

 

PCBuilder what did you do to mount your UG in that location? That's where I planned to put mine too but I've currently got it down by my CB but don't like it there.

 

I believe he's using Velcro to hold it.

 

That's where my scangauge is, mounted with velcro.

Im not so sure I'd want the much taller UG mounted there though. It does block some of the instrument cluster.

 

Blocks Airbag, O/D, and maybe one other

 

Started workin on my grill today. Its comin out pretty nice if you ask me

 

Where is it, I can't tell from the pic. Are land cruisers and Tacomas the same?

 

I just used a piece of double sided 3M adhesive on the bottom and pushed it down in the gap between the steering column and dash. You have to be careful about how far back you lean it though, otherwise you'll hit the bottom button haha

That would work as well, but I'm just using some doubles sided adhesive.

It's not bad at all. Only important one it blocks is the overdrive. And I can still see the reflection of the orange icon when it's on.

Yeah, it's not bad at all.

 

Yeah, kind of. I can just lean mine back and the button hits the dash. Or you could just use velcro and detach it easily anytime you wanted to change pages. I only use the first page pretty much.

 

Installed CBis and I can already tell these things are gonna be way bright..
