hello there

hey just wandered in the site here decided to register...i have two tacomas one is TacoZilla and one is TacoZuki lol corny? yes but I like it....and yes I know there is another guy that calls his tacozilla i didnt know that till recently lol.....ok here goes...

TacoZilla--1997 tacoma reg cab 4x4 stock was 2.7 4 cyl with 5 spd.put 23" lift on it and 44" gumbo mudders (dana 44 front and 14 bolt 1Ton rear)...twisted the frame with the introduction of a 450hp small block......now sits on a 1972 blazer frame stock length frame...only .2" longer in wheel base then stock taco frame.... has 350 small block (yep the same 450hp one) and is pretty much gathering dust for a bit...

TacoZuki--1996 tacoma reg cab 4x4 2.7 4 cyl 5 speed.. K&N filter 3.5" deckplate mod to air box, pro boost chip... getting parts together for alpine supercharger. have 3" suspension lift and 3" body lift waiting in garage with 35" tires (its good to have hand-me downs when it comes to truck parts)

 

Sweet, always glad to see other 1st gen Tacos here on TW, welcome!

 

yeah all tacomas are sweet but I've had 4 1996-1997's both reg cab and extra and they are tops in my mind... also had a 89 toy with a 2.2L diesel I put in and stacks...but thats another site lol

 

Welcome to TW!

I am a big fan of the 2.7L (1st and 2nd Gen), but I really wanted a D4D Tacoma. What happened to your 2.2L?

Nice trucks!

 

drove it for awhile (loved the diesel,not a huge fan of the rest of that model truck)sold it when the time came i needed a bigger truck...now i dont need that bigger truck so back to a toyota

 

welcome to tw, zilla!!! nice rides you got there!!

 

ty ty i love the site.... oh and btw i dont try to sound like a know it all its just i have had alot of these trucks and worked at younger toyota here in hagerstown right out of school as a tech...so I've seen alot of these things from the bottom
