Decided to start a build thread for my t4r to track the progress I make on it as I tend to forget stuff I did
Overall this will be my daily driver so I cant get too crazy with it, but I've said that before lol.
Specs-
99 SR5 2wd auto
188k
airraid intake
tb spacer
sequoia wheels with 275/70/17 bfg all terrains
TRD exhaust
I just purchased it on 4/16/14. Since i've owned it ive done the following:
-oil change with rotella 15/40(love this oil, use it in everything)
-coolant flush with with toyota red coolant
-valves covers were leaking fairly bad, turns out all the bolts were just extremely loose. Tightened them all up and no more leaks.
Just ordered a b&m trans cooler to prevent the possibility of milkshaking
I also ordered a denso radiator as the current one was a bit crusty looking on the inside. Seeing as I live in AZ and the summer is right around the corner it was cheap insurance
I also ordered a factory roof rack with the cross bars that will be here next week. Afterwards I will be installing a cargo basket and fairing.
Short term plans:
-1" coil spacers up front to give me 2" of lift up front. Currently the front sits about 1 1/4" below the rear so I am hoping to achieve just a slight reverse rake.
-Either a fabbed front bumper or a push bar with some fogs
-Hood is sun faded so getting that painted is a must
-efan
-magnaflow muffler
Other than that I plan on getting as much preventative maintenance done as possible before it gets to be 120 degrees out
