    I almost took a picture today... Bad at pictures and videos I guess.
    I need to fix the O2 sensor so it stops pulling timing at high RPM.

    And @CharlieTaco what's the thoughts on that 2gr vs 3rz?

    Running vs problem free tho....
    Also AC wouldn't take a charge, low side gets to 25psi and it just stops taking refrigerant, any ideas?

    hands down 3RZ. definitely should've done a 3RZ swap.

    but in all honestly, that thing is damn fast. it's got way more power than anyone really needs in a 1st gen tacoma. makes me want to bump up an engine build and/or turbo a few spots on my truck priority list.

    blockage? hard for me to say without being there
    im in the early stages.. but i have a chassis with an intact engine bay that MAY be a test fitting apparatus for a v12 swap. IF i can get my hands on an engine cheap enough. if not 3UZ
