Nice looking 3rd gen. Im gona have to ask where you got the tail pipe? Im slightly jealous

Wow, nice T4R!! Im gona have to admit that thats quite close to my dream car. I love the white on black contrast

Personaly i love it, the materials, the styling, all of it. Why on earth do cars need carpet? What do you think about it? I know many people dont like the materials, among other aspects. Feel free to post some more pictures

Its only when i accelerate with the throttle wide open for more than is ever nessicary, driving normaly i have not had a single problem. I would rather try to find out the problem before i get charged to hell by a mechanic.

Ahh okay, sorry.

Just wondering, where is this button? I seem to be missing it, altho im sure its right under my nose

Haha wow ron, thats some hardcore speeding!! Glad the cop was nice, i might be wrong but i think if you double the speed limit you can get arrested. I had a cop pass me when i was going 40 over before, i have absolutly no clue what was going on, he obviously had somewhere to be.. He had his...

I know that this is not your problem, but incase anyone viewing this thred has had a problem with steering wheel vibrations while braking from high speeds a simple tire rotation fixed the problem for me.

Just out of curiosity, what part of houston do you live in Thai? For some reason i remember you living in Katy, but i could be mistaken.

Ok, so today it happened again today. I accelerated prety hard to a little under 70, and then brought it down to 40. I went 40 for a while, engine was still on, but i smelled a horrible smell that i cant quite describe.. kinda burning exaust (i had all the windows down). I stoped for a stop sign...

Thanks for the input, hopefuly it is just stale gas. Do you think that having 91K miles on the stock spark plugs might be part of the problem?

How many speeding tickets have you goten? How fast over the limit were you? Any tickets for other violations? For me it is none so far, but ill report back when i do, my lucks gona run out sometime. :driving:

On true.tv 2 inmates escaped from a jail and proceded to steal a black 3rd gen 4runner. With cops in persuit one of the inmates went into the rear of the vehicle and started throwing stuff like the jack and cargo cover out of the back window trying to hit the cop cars. If that ever happens to be...

Sorry, but too much crome on a 4runner looks reeeeaaalllyy tacky...

My 96' v6 4speed Runner's engine has adopted a habbit of just shuting off on me. Its happened on 3 occasions, and is definatly a problem. Every time it has happened the ECT has been on and it was being floored. One time it happened at only around 45, the other two times at 70. The engine shuts...
