What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Got my fiberwerx +4" bedsides recently and put them on about 2 weeks ago



Today I sold my tailgate, used that money to buy the newer style door panels and installed them

 

Found them! iJDMTOY (2 912 920 921 T15 Nylon...

I will say that the o ring on these made my Supra ones loose. I had some Honda ones that had a thicker o ring so I swapped them out. If these don’t work, you can use Yaris ones too, and see if they fit. They should all be very close.

since mine didn’t come with a template, I drew one out. Lots of grinding slowly by slowly.


And i basically used the “toyota tacoma” emblem as a guide with my 99 degree to get it consistent on both sides. If you have any more questions man, feel free to ask!

 

Whoops I accidentally replied to the other post but it’s above this one

 

I wired to the outlet available (one Of the two accessory outlets). Sliced into the red and grounded it.


I then routed the wires for the lights behind the seats, not under the dash. If you want more specifics I can take some more pics for ya

 

Haltech finial tune and dyno done yesterday.

A beautiful power graph curve too

We gained 62lbs torque and 35 hp of new power in the midrange area 2k-4.5k from the haltech compared to the stock ECU on methanol both with dyno results.
Rev limiter raised from 5100 to 5600 and hp is still going up.

Torque is almost at max at 3000rpms at 300lbs.

Finial numbers are 282hp and 305 torque at 6000 feet,

SNPSPEED.COM With the remote tune is the bomb for getting the most out of your supercharger with the remote tune by GABE SALAZAR
All from a tune

if you want the most out of your supercharger with a perfect tune this is the way to go

 

How much do you think stock could gain? And have you inquired about a fuel economy tune at all?

 

Fuel economy is the same, still around 20 mpg and I have about 5k plus miles on the haltech, I’m not looking for a economy tune,

how much what can be gained?

 

20mpg wow, I've always been around 14. How much HP do you think just a tune on stock could gain (for the non-FI guys)?

 

Thanks again for the link and install pics. I will try those out thanks!

 

Being a single cab with no armor and 31s helps a lot



Gotta love that 5vz torque curve.

 

Impressive stuff for sure.

Still amazing how much more you can get out of a simple turbo setup though. And with this haltech option makes it even more viable.

Did you not keep the meth injection? I would for several reasons..

 

Added some fancy logic to my tail lights so I get all brakes unless I have a turn signal on.

Did you use a device or just clever wiring?

Could the same thing be used for turn-signal-corner-lights?

 

I used a device, and planning to use it for corners if I ever buy some driving lights.

Ya, but I still only got 14 when I was stock no armor and 31s...extended cab shouldnt take 6 mpgs

 

I think a basic P-channel MOSFET and pull down resistor would have done that for you, for future reference. HIGH blinker input = OFF

 

Seats showed up today

 

Trucks been not starting or starting weak lately.
Not starting after long drives.
Just did a rebuild kit on the oem one and she's still being lame. Thinking a new starter might be in order since the battery is fine and all electrical is solid... or so it appears.

Any other ideas on a culprit? Turns over a bit (weakly) then starts. R150f 5vzfe

The reman is much larger also oddly.

 

Have you had your battery checked? Maybe it’s lost it’s cranking amps

 

It's been a good 12.2 12.4 volts
Can they loose CCA and retain a regular comsistant voltage?!
