    If you put a stock GTR exhaust on it, it sounds just like one !

    Dang. I never owned or been in an FJ so I didn't realize all the problems. I love the look and size of them from the outside. uploadfromtaptalk1447776535675.jpg

    They look sick built tho!

    As for a 4R, those are bit too "soccer mom/family vehicle" for me. I like how the FJ is big but compact and the price isn't bad on them either.

    I could dig a jeep but I don't need a solid axle daily.

    There are a lot of bars on the west side of town. Just depends where west you are at.

    As far as camp sights, there are some rv parks around town. Lol

    Oh they look great modded, but for the same scratch I would get a heap or an xterra. The heap has endless possibilities for mods, the xterra not so much except for going big which includes Titan front suspension swap and Titan engine swap, both of which are bolt on affairs since it shares the frame with the frontier and Titan.

    Why do you need a daily?

    What did that set you back? I'm debating on something like that or just OME

    Most people buy a gas saver for daily. Kale wants all his vehicles to drink lots of gas...

    I dig my OME setup.
    I'm glad I went with 885s and AAL initially. Otherwise, I'd be on stiff springs for 2+ years.

    I dunno. I wanted armor on my truck, so I needed a stiffer spring and leaf pack.

    Gotcha, so you'll just put the beefed up springs on when you get the armor?

    I'll put the beefed up springs prior to the armor. I should have my bumper January/February. So I'll do the springs in December since I have so much time off. That way, they'll be stiff for a month or so and have a chance to settle.

    If Pelfrey had their rear on sale as well, I'd buy that over the front.
