So is ANYTHING new? I can't see a single difference (not that I was really expecting any).

Okay it is October and I'm chomping at the bit to hear some news. Anybody know anything about a TRD or URD supercharger?

Any suggestions? I've got a Icon kit on its way, I've already decided on 295's for tires. I haven't been able to make a decision on wheel. For now I'm just going to mount on a set of steelies I have lying around. A light weight, off-road, forged wheel sounds great. I just don't know if such an...

Thanks. Six pound increase seems like a lot.

Can't say I've seen a 5th gen with these on. The link says they weigh 35 lbs a piece. What does the stock wheel weigh?

Yup. I'm a big fan of forced induction. Advanced manufacturing technologies and state of the art design make turbo/super-charging a great option. Which is why Gadget needs to offer a kit ASAP! :nicethread:

Welcome and good work. What makes this forum so valuable is people like you keep posting detailed descriptions of their mods. Thanks!

Any word on the Sienna? (I know I know,....I'm lame)

Wow - must...have.....LEDs.... Night pics?

That's actually not a bad point - assuming your dealer does hire a reputable dealer. While I hate to endorse my biggest competition, they are good at what they do and are available nation wide (I'm only in four states). Safelite Auto Glass can install a quality aftermarket or OEM glass (which...

Wow I love being able to be the expert! Normally I'm just the idiot who lurks hear gleaning ideas and knowledge. I own a chain of auto glass repair shops and I can speak with some authority on this. First of all six inches may not be too big for a repair - the repair certainly won't make the...
