    I'm totally neglecting this thread.

    I installed this inclinometer out of a JDM Hilux Surf the other day. Wired to the ashtray backlight.

    Do it. You’ll have fun. I’ll miss taking mine off-road when it’s done... I’ll be to invested into the paint work and stuff to want to take it anymore... but that’s why I’m keeping my eye open for another. Some of the most fun I’ve ever had was taking my truck to badlands and out performing jeeps.

    My supercharger install ended in finding out my tensioner couldn’t be mounted due to excessive rust on the engine block.... that’s what made me get a new block... and build it.. that turned into getting the trans out to get rebuilt.. which turned into finding out the frame was installed by a moron that did a number to some key bolts... soo it’s now a frame up restoration. It’s going to be more like a 2018 than a 2001 when I’m done lol

    Engine block rust? I've seen the frames rust, but never the engine block. Don't you have a brand new SC?

    Never had a supercharger on my 01. The trd was going to get installed until I discovered the issue.. the m90 is a future project waiting to see if I can get it onto a 2gr..

    Eaton never made SC's for our trucks, right? I thought it was Magnuson.

    The trd units were made by Magnuson. But they’re Eaton blowers. They’re m62 blowers to be exact. Magnuson made the housings basically

    Adapter plate. I know someone did it before on a 3.4. But I’m going to attempt to put it on a 2gr whenever I get my hands on a spare one
