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

Whoaaaa

 

Lord would that make piping so much better.

 

Been a fun last few years.

How much space is there between the dash and the A/C piping? 1"? 2" I want to install a USB-C up there, but haven't taken everything apart to see how deep it can extend into the dash before hitting the piping.

 

Maybe a pinch over 1". There is some space to the left of the air duct, though, for more room for something like a USB-C outlet.

 

I like turbos

They make them for the 3rz. Would be clean to incorporate a air/water cooler into it also. I need as much low end torque as I can get so I'm not particularly interested in them.

 

I want to do this one!

 

There the 333 fab rack mount on…see if I can feel a difference. Still Need to put my new steering pump in.

 

Very handy, and able to change the mounts as needs changed. 100% agree a support backing via washers or plate.

 

interested to hear if theres a noteworthy difference.

 

Zanes air to water IC is super tidy I think. Probably the way to go honestly.

 

I thought about air to water. Ended up with a bottom mount IC instead.

 

I'd like to redo mine with a straight through instead of a 90* to shorten the intake more but for now it's good enough.

 

I get that. I've got a pretty long run on the intake. One day. Just trying to establish reliable boost for now.

 

I tried every which way to fit a air to air IC or a larger heat exchanger, just not a lot of room on the early front ends. I like your piping though, keeps it out of the way.

 

That the original paint?

 

Yep. "Surfside Green Mica", available only in '98 and '99 model years.

The TRD stickers are cheap junk applied by a previous owner though.

 

There's not a lot of room no matter what you do in these bays lol thanks! That was the goal.

 

@eimkeith - Did you ever get a chance to install your fuel tank lift on a double cab?

 

Fun fact: pedal covers from a 2005 Scion tc fit 1st gen Tacomas!

Old and busted:



New Hotness:

 

I've been without a cover on my clutch pedal until now lol. Junk yard pull or Amazon buy?
