    Secondary Air Injection Pump Failure on V8's! Important!

    I did the hewitt bypass and Live in CA, easily passed smog. Nothing about the kit looks aftermarket so unless the tech REALLY knows that they are looking for it's no problem. Most SMOG techs just look for blatant aftermarket parts.

    2005 V8: Budget skinny 33"s for spare? (255-80-17?)

    Oooo this is a great idea! Have you seen anyone else do this to success I may just get another K02 in that size for a spare.

    5th gen 4Runner steering wheel in 4th gen fully working!!

    This thread has been SO helpful in my recent upgrade, I also got the same leather wrap, stitching that thing on was a pain, but now that I know how, it would be much easier, but I think I would pay an upholster shop to install it in the future. So I ended up getting a 2013 4runner wheel and...

    Resale Value Concern with SAIS bypass

    I just took my 4runner V8 for CA smog last month, and it passed with the bypass. My pump is actually working, but I installed the bypass for piece of mind so I didn't get a break down if the pump failed while on a trip. California only does OBD checks and no sniffer, I am sure my car would pass...

    Sell '05 vs. put money into it...HELP

    Assuming you have a 4x4 and a non rusty frame, that car is worth 10-15k on the open market right now. For point of reference I bought a v8 4x4 Limited for 15k from a dealer with 147k miles 7 months ago, which was considered a STEAL. Personally if you love the truck, put 2-3k in maintenance...

    Need Opinion on Picture of Timing Belt

    Not only that, but if a flying belt gets caught up in other spinning parts, that could be a disaster too. When in doubt it's better to pay $900-1200 now than regret it later IMO
