Hi everyone! After a year or so of several people asking me to join this site, I've finally done so. I'm the owner of an 07 Regular Cab prerunner which I've converted to 4wd along with a 1GR engine swap. I'm a Toyota master tech of 13 years experience and a long time automotive enthusiest. I started off modifying Honda's in 1999 (tastefully not f&f bs) but have since left that scene. This Tacoma and my wife's 01 Celica are the only Toyotas that we currently own but I've had several others in the past. The list goes as follows, 76 Corolla, 77 Celica, 84 Corolla sr5 , 85 Corolla sr5, 87 MR2, 96 Tacoma 2wd reg cab, 99 Tacoma 4wd access cab, 03 Corolla and 06 Corolla. All of those remained stock but I did a 1UZ-FE V8 swap into my old 01 Lexus IS300 (RIP). Looking forward to making new friends here and sharing experiences. The pic I included is an older one, it no longer has the katakana emblem, sport hood or the shell, but everything else is the same.

Welcome, & I'm soooo jealous, It would have been absolutely no problem for Toyota, but changing it now must be a really big deal. I love my little reg. cab 4X4, but hate, I mean HATE the little 2.7, especially with the auto. trans. & 4.10 gears. Toyota master tech? Where have you been? Are you ready for questions? both serious & silly? We'll have them.
