Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Wow. The state/fed mandate a list of ingredients. Sugar is one of them.

 

You selling the TH350?

 

Oh I certainly will be. But that's down the road... I blew my entire wad on the brakes, suspension, rear end. It'll take a while before I can build up enough dough for the engine/trans swap. But I'll keep ya in mind.

 

Looking forward to seeing her on the ground!

 

Dude me too.

 

babe if you wanted to turn me on you could have sent a pm
but i guess you've always had a thing for public exhibitionism

i may like ford but apparently my pants liked that that thing is fucking clean dude
do you know what kind of engine you're going to slap in it?

 

Still on the fence. Was leaning hard towards LSx for a long time. SO much power available, easy to tune, EFI, basically the whole world is running them in everything now. But then there's that, basically the whole world is running them... not too exciting. Something about a big giant NA big block is appealing. 427, 502? Got room for it in there. My goal is something in the 550-600 hp range.

We'll see... I'll most likely end up going the LS route, but I'm keeping some old school options open too.


Oh and speaking of Wilwood brakes... get em for your Tacoma now!

everything about that post is amazing
can I be you?
I like the "versatility" of the LSx but also I don't like the fact that everyone and their mother is doing it
that why with my next truck I'm going to put a diesel but i don't want to put a cummins in it because everyone is doing it so I'm doing a 7.3 power stroke
but while i think a big diesel will fit in that chevy I'm sure thats not where you want to go

also 550-600hp if you didn't already have a family id be proposing to you

do you have a thread for the car or do you have somewhere I can follow your progress???

 

give me a second i need a shower

 

Is that a civic with a body kit or a mustang, can't tell

 

Those cars have great lines already, no need to throw plastic all over it. Saw this one yesterday and liked it enough to stop and take a picture, and I'm def not a Ford guy.

 

Well, you could buy this, instead.

 

Thanks bud! Yeah there's something about doing it just a little different than the going trend that's appealing. But we'll see how it shakes out.

Build thread on Pro Touring. Needs updating...lol, I post here wayyyyy more often

The bone-stock truck in the picture showed up for the run with 800 miles on the clock and dealer tags. Driver was an Italian national working in LA who had traded in a Fiat 500 to get the Raptor. Running around the desert for a couple of days with a bunch of heavily modified Raptors was like a dream come true for him. When it came time to jump, he was a little hesitant at first. That picture was his 3rd or 4th attempt. No apparent harm done to his truck. Good times.

My Tacoma don't jump.

 

Never Forget

 

That was on my mind when the guy lined up for his 4th run at it. Pleasantly surprised when the 4th try didn't end badly.

 

Spotted a nice looking 2nd gen at harbor freight in south San Jose this morning. Dark grey with yellow rci skids.

 

My canal has been rooted...
























I'm still numb

 

Raptors are a dime a dozen out here!
