Kalamakid's 2018 build doing it right this time don't get your hopes up...

Massachusetts.....


I always wanted a blue taco and when the 17s came out in the bbp I jumped all over and have loved it...

But man, the world rally blue is at another level

 

Any idea what kind of numbers it makes?

 

313HP at the rear wheels currently. Only weighs 2700 lbs, has six gears and a strong clutch. Had it for six years now and just passed 22,000 miles lol. Its just a fun toy for nice days.

 

I bought mine in July to have more fun with my commute... already put 8k on it

 

It gets crazy gas mileage. I was getting 38MPG on the freeway before I started modding it. Although even now I'm getting 26-28 MPG with the bigger injectors, super charger and headers. The spoiler doesn't help either but I LOVE IT

 

What supercharger did you do?

I’ve been very conflicted with my plans for the car. We moved about a year ago and I have an hour commute now. I bought the brz to have fun on the ride. It is all back roads so I definitely have fun.

But after 3 months and 8k, the lack of power is getting to me. I keep going back and forth between supercharging it or trading it in for something crazy like a slightly used mustang shelby gt350...

 

I did the C-38 jackson racing supercharger with a HBP

 

Debating on getting the @CaliRaisedLed 31.5 light bar for my lower bumper or just getting a full on steal hybrid bumper for Black Friday... can’t make my mind up

 

I have the sso Slimline with a 20" bar in it. The wiring harness came with has two leads coming off of it. I was thinking of getting the caliraised 30" behind the grill as well and hook it up to the same switch

 

Yeah I’m on the fence right now. Waiting for Black Friday deals. It’s either a SSO slimeline stage 2 or a C4 hybrid bumper. It’s inevitable.

 

Badass truck! Where are you in Oregon? I’m from Medford

 

Salem. I’m work in Medford quite a bit though.

 

Sweet! I moved away after I graduated in 2001 to join the military. My younger brother and his family live in Klamath Falls though

 

After one crazy year I’ve finally found time to buy some shit for the pickup. Starting with bolting on this thing tomorrow. Never been a fan of light bars but the deal was too good. Fuck it.

 

I picked up these orange rubber mats called “Grypmat” first time using them and I love them. Now I gotta buy a second set for work. Perfect for aviation maintenance...

 

The Caliraised light bar didn’t turn out too bad. Their wire harness is 3x the length it needs to be. Going to cut it all back and reterminate the connectors later. I want to try to cut my air damns up and reinstall them too. Hardware that came with it is super cheap. Will switch to AN soon.

 

Picked up 100Watt solar panels from Jackery. Need to figure out a way to tie them to the truck so they don’t walk away while I’m fishing etc.

 

Picked up a 500W gasless generator from Jackery to compliment my new 100w panel. Excited to see how this setup works. I’m going to see how long it’ll keep my queen size electric blanket warm tomorrow. We like to just keep an electric blanket on a lower setting on below our sleeping bags while in the tent. Normally turn it off after a couple hours and the CVT tent stays warm all night. Even in 20 degree weather.

 

The slimeline is definitely where it's at...

 

Big expensive mods going on today...

Now if UPS would just hurry up make some deliveries
