1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I can feel it.. Coming in the air toniight..

 

Cold air intake or exhaust?

also does anyone do throttle body spacers??

 

Anyone want a RHD 3rd Gen T4R? Looks legit...

The “cold” air intakes notoriously kill power but you’ll feel faster because noise.

throttle body spacers literally do nothing. Plenum spacers are the only way to change power delivery (bigger spacer, means more power down low at the cost of top end)

exhaust? Headers are the only thing that will produce a gain.

 

Almost looks like avionics wiring. When I took apart my Boeing coffee maker I couldn’t believe how overengineered it was and how nice the wire wrapping was.

 

Think it's just attributable to the good 'ol days

 

I was talking to a guy who owns a shop and apparently works on Cruisers and other 4WDs, anyway we got around to UCA talk and he says yeah if you don't swap them then your UCA will be hitting the frame at full droop. All I could picture was how my UCA would have to make it through my shock/coil to get near the frame, or maybe he meant the shock tower and not the frame rail, I dunno. You know how sometimes you don't have the energy to get into it and just let the person keep going without asking anything else? It was that kinda situation, but later my brain hurt.
Maybe I needed more coffee.

 

Morning LT. Friday's right around the corner

 

He's right. Well on a 100 series. The area circled in yellow is where the old stock arm bumped up against the frame at full droop.

 

Sumpin got a little too hot.

 

Yeah I think he just figured the Tacoma was just like the 100. I looked at his site and it has some FJ40 shots, other than that it was small performance cars.

 

Looks like melted ice cream

Would fucking play

 

Crazy. Good for those who are selling though.
I decided mines a forever truck. I remember thinking I was paying a little more than I wanted in 2017, now it’d be a deal.

My spindle (near upper ball joint) can hit the coil at full droop on the 99 with stock arms. But not by much.

 

Those wheels come up often on Craigslist and occasionally in the yards around here. Center caps are less common.

I have three LC80 center caps from those wheels but have the Toyota word mark instead of the logo. Like this:



I grabbed them from the junk yard a while back thinking they'd fit my newer wheels. They do not.

EDIT: One more set. Looks to be complete with the center caps. Pretty far out of the way though:
