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

You guys ever looked into modding the coin holder brackets so it sits lower... or the lid that closes?

As long as you didn't botch the paint job somehow, which I doubt you did hah. It sounds fine by me

 

LOL

I was thinking the exact same thing.

And since your ALWAYS on here you have any recommendations on the timing belt kits? There are tons of them, was thinking of this one

I'd go OEM for sure which it looks like those parts are OEM parts.

That one also looks good

 

idk why but i had this listed in my favorites as a to do

From what ive read aisin is good.

I should probably go this route but fuck $350

Thanks

 

Can't go wrong with OEM look how long the stock stuff has lasted haha mines got 190,000 miles on it... Will prolly be getting this soon

 

Asin is OEM basically

 

Damn 190 and you Haven't changed it yet? Thats 100 over what your supposed to do lol pretty good!

Thats what I've read, any reason to go the more expensive route?

Will do, thanks, though I always find it hard to figure out exactly what I want from there, their descriptions tend to be lacking.

 

Due ya. Yu 90k over due for a timing belt and water pump..get that changed ASAP.

Long as it's asin and Toyota parts. It's all good

 

Pretty sure I didn't... but it's been sitting on top of a cabinet in my garage for years now. I can't remember what it looks like

EDIT: Now that I'm looking at the original pic... I think the piece is black stock.

I think that's it between the lid cover and main assembly:

 

Yeah it's black from the get go. Sweet, doesn't matter to me how dirty it is

 

I guess I'll i go for it from my research seems most don't go full oem. Only weird thing is some parts say made in US I though aisin made their shit in japan. I guess I'm over thinking this, never done it before.

Nothing Wrong with that, we all have our vices, you spray paint everything and I break/beat up everything

 

I guess the belts are bando and Mitsuboshi.

 

the ones from 01 to 04 only have one sliding window in the back instead of two

 

Oh shit that makes more sense. Okay well those look better than the 97-00 models. Even my buddy's 94 Toyota Pickup has a hard plastic clip that snaps instead of just flimsy piece of bent metal that hovers over the 2nd sliding window

 

yea the 3 piece one u can just slide it closed and it latches kind of nice

 

Just got this K&N intake in and installed it today, love the look and increase in HP.
