XPOTRPR build & BS

Just 3M automotive double sided tape. same shit for badges/emblems.

get on it man!

 

Nice truck man. Can you recommend any specific header gaskets? I reused my old ones when i did them and i could be having a leak issue. Not sure but im going to redo all the exhaust gaskets and double check my torque specs.

 

Appreciate it man. Unfortunately, Im unable to.. which headers?

@Torspd

 

Urd equal length.

 

they only come with the collector gasket right? It's been years, so I'm trying to remember.

 

Toyota multi-layered steel ones, between head to header, and the URD heavy duty gaskets at the collectors.

 

speaking of exhaust..

I'm still having the surging sensation under WOT with the Taco. I chased down and sealed what vacuum leaks I could find. My next item on the process of elimination list is a new cat-less Y pipe. just having a hard time finding a shop that will do it...

beautiful.. but I think overkill for my setup and uses. lol was just gonna do the same high clearance re-route I have now, but with no cats.

I dont know if i want to take care of the Taco Y-pipe first.. or the exhaust on the minitruck. the mini has a mean exhaust leak currently.. lol but I also have a idea for the entire exhaust anyways.. so might hold off.

 

Mmmm. Giggity

 

Kinda jelly

 

Of the mini. 2nd genz are crap

 

I should’ve known, as seen on IG

 

I forgot to ask how much did the Mini cost you? These things seem to be going up in value.

 

lol. they are crap... probably gonna sell mine since I barely drive it anymore. 22r for life. lol

yeah so!! lol its so much easier to post on there.. trying to get back into TW and keeping up with it.

4k. he was firm on it.. and turned away a couple guys (mostly because he didnt want to sell it to them, they were going to hack it up and he wanted it to go to a good home). After talking to him for a couple weeks and then checking it out in person for a few hours.. I was completely fine with his asking price. he tracked down little parts that wore out and replaced them, re-did the interior, etc. all things I would have probably ended up doing or would of wanted to do to fix it up, were already done. just the little things like replacing the illuminated AC switch, all the knobs, window cranks, etc. he already did. those were all things I wouldnt have to mess with, and be able to just drive it. I could also appreciate his effort and work he put into it.. and didnt want to offend or disrespect that. I know how it goes.. he was a good dude and was super excited that it was going home with me and would be in a good Toyota family. lol

 

How you liking those Falkens?

 

they're aight. chunking pretty good already, good grip, great price. longevity is what I'm lookin for. we'll see!
